Cody James Asche (/ˈæʃiː/ ASH-ee;[1] born June 30, 1990) is an American former professional baseball third baseman and left fielder and coach who currently serves as the hitting coach for the Baltimore Orioles of Major League Baseball (MLB). He played in MLB for the Philadelphia Phillies and Chicago White Sox.
After growing up in O'Fallon, Missouri, Asche attended the University of Nebraska, where he played college baseball for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, majored in economics, and achieved recognition for both his athletic and academic performance.
His pro baseball career began when Asche was chosen as the fourth round selection of the Phillies in the 2011 draft. He quickly progressed through the minor league system, briefly dabbling at second base before predominantly sticking to third base and left field. At both positions, minor league scouts regarded his defensive ability as sub-optimal. His career with the Phillies ended in 2016, and he played one additional season in the Chicago White Sox organization before bouncing around several minor league organizations. Since 2022, he has worked as a coach with the Baltimore Orioles organization.[2]
