A former Boston Red Sox pitcher who appeared in games during the clubâs run to a World Series victory in 2018 recently graduated from the Massachusetts Firefighting Academy, officials announced Monday.
Justin Haley, who pitched in four games during that season, graduated from the academy on Feb. 28, according to West Newbury Fire Chief Michael Dwyer.
âFirefighter Haleyâs commitment to his family helped lead him here, and he will be a great asset to our department and community here in West Newbury,â Dwyer said.
The 30-year-old California native who moved to Newburyport said that as his baseball career drew to a close he wanted to pursue work closer to the home he shares with his wife, son, and daughter.
