The Nashville Sounds Minor League Baseball team has played in Nashville, Tennessee, since being established in 1978 as an expansion team of the Double-A Southern League. [1] They moved up to Triple-A in 1985 as members of the American Association before joining the Pacific Coast League in 1998. [1] With the restructuring of the minor leagues in 2021, they were placed in the Triple-A East, which became the International League in 2022. [2] [3] In the 2024 season, the Sounds' coaching staff was led by manager Rick Sweet and included Al LeBoeuf (hitting), Patrick McGuff (pitching and bullpen), Eric Theisen (hitting), David Tufo (bench), and Ned Yost IV (general). [4] [5]

Six former Sounds players later served as coaches for the team. Wayne Garland of the 1982 starting rotation returned as pitching coach from 1987 to 1988. [6] Don Cooper, who pitched out of the bullpen in 1980, served as pitching coach from 1994 to 1996. [7] Reliever Steve Wilson retired from the Sounds during the 1995 season and became the team's pitching coach. [8] Fred Dabney, a reliever on the 1993 team, returned to coach pitchers from 2012 to 2014. [9] Éric Gagné, who made two major league rehabilitation starts in 2008, served as bullpen coach in 2019.

[11] Outfielder Gene Roof (1986) and catcher Buddy Pryor (1987) were player-coaches who coached hitting while also playing on the team. Two coaches also managed the Nashville club. Pitching coach Wayne Garland filled in as interim manager for three games in 1988 after the dismissal of manager Jack Lind. [12] Richie Hebner, who was the hitting coach from 1998 to 2000, became the team's manager for the second half of the 2000 season when Trent Jewett was hired as the Pittsburgh Pirates' third base coach. [13] Four coaches have been selected to participate in the Triple-A All-Star Game: Stan Kyles (2006), Rich Gale (2011), Bob Skube (2014), and Rick Rodriguez (2017). [14] [15]
