Why Old School Baseball?
After leaving his home town of Simi Valley 26 years ago to follow his dreams of playing professional baseball, Ryan Hankins decided to come back and start up Old School Baseball in Simi.
One big reason why I came back to start a baseball business up in Simi was to give back to all of the kids in Simi Valley where I grew up and learned the right way!! How to be a man or woman and play the game the right way the Old School way!! That's how I came up with my business name "Old School Baseball". Being back in my hometown of Simi has brought back a lot of great memories.
