Timeline
Thomas Patrick Jacquez (born December 29, 1975) is a former professional baseball player.
In 1995, the Daily Bruin called him part of “maybe the most heralded freshman recruiting class in recent UCLA baseball history.” That group also included three other future big-leaguers: slugger Troy Glaus, Eric Byrnes, and Jim Parque.
Even in college, Jacquez was a pitcher, not a thrower, as L.A.’s Daily News described.
“He throws in the mid-to-upper 80 mph range and is more than just a crafty left-hander.
He has a changeup known as ‘The Floating Butterfly.’ It is made even more effective because of his Sneaky fastball.
‘He really commands his pitches,’ Bruins coach Gary Adams said.
‘He really doesn’t beat himself.’”
Jacquez was a dedicated athlete.
Dan Keller, a teammate and fellow pitcher at UCLA, started a baseball instruction company called Lifeletics.
On its website, he presents a series of Life Lessons, #3 being “Work Hard.” As part of this lesson, he recalled, “Thomas Jacquez...would rise at 9:00 AM every morning and go for a run.
Whether it was pouring rain or scorching hot, Tom would roll out of bed for a morning jog.”
Jacquez made the Bruins starting rotation as a freshman in 1995.
However, he missed most of his sophomore year after an emergency appendectomy in February 1996.
“I had a bad stomach ache for a day,” he said a year later.
“I thought it was food poisoning.
It progressively got worse as the night went on.
The next morning, I went to the emergency room.
When something like this happens and prevents you from doing something you love, it is real hard mentally and physically.
You don’t realize how much you appreciate something until you can’t do it anymore.
I don’t take anything for granted anymore.
Every outing I’m pitching like it could be my last one.
I’m giving it 100 percent every time.’”
Weighing the medical risks, Thomas was prepared to return if the Bruins needed him, but instead he got back in action during the summer of 1996 with the Cotuit Kettleers of the Cape Cod Baseball League.
He went 2-1, 2.14 and got his nickname "Hawk" from his host family.
He then rebounded strongly as a redshirt sophomore, posting a 10-4 record with a 3.06 ERA and leading the Bruins with 129.1 innings pitched.
UCLA won the NCAA’s Midwest Regional tournament, although Harvard surprised Jacquez in the opener, winning 7-3.
The Bruins made it to the College World Series as the #4 seed before losing two tough games to Miami and Mississippi State.
Jacquez was drafted by the Phillies in the 1997 amateur draft.
On the recommendation of area scout Mark Ralston, the Phillies selected Jacquez in the sixth round of the 1997 amateur draft (he was eligible because he had junior standing).
A left-handed pitcher, he played part of one season in Major League Baseball in 2000 for the Philadelphia Phillies.
He played for the minor-league Piedmont Boll Weevils, Batavia Clippers, Clearwater Phillies, Reading Phillies, and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Red Barons before being called up to the Phillies in September 2000.
Jacquez pitched in nine games for the Phillies in September 2000, earning an earned-run average of 11.05.
In eight minor league seasons, Jacquez logged 43W, 681.1IP, 461K, and 192BB.
Thomas (he began to favor his full name in college) went on a full scholarship to the University of California at Los Angeles.
He also considered various other schools: the University of Southern California, University of California at Berkeley, University of Arizona, Arizona State, and Santa Clara University (where his father had pitched).
He said in 2011, “My childhood dream was to pitch in the major leagues.
By leaving early, I was able to take one step closer to achieving my goal.” A couple of weeks later, he signed and reported to Batavia in the NY-Penn League.
After going 2-1 with a 2.42 ERA in four starts, he went to Piedmont of the Class A South Atlantic League in July.
There he was 2-4, 4.97 in eight starts.
