Who Is Mark Brown?

Professional Baseball Player and Coach

My professional pitching career spanned seven seasons, including stints in the Major Leagues with the Baltimore Orioles (1984) and Minnesota Twins (1985). After my playing career was over, I worked as an Orioles’ minor league pitching coach for two years.

Instructor

Having been a professional baseball pitcher and pitching coach, I have surrendered the talents God has given me to ministering the gospel through sports. In the past, I have had the privilege of serving Him in various sports and baseball chapel ministries. Also, through coaching, group clinics, and personal instruction, I have had the pleasure of working with baseball players, parents, and coaches.

Pastor and Chaplain

Currently, as the Assistant Pastor of FBBC, God has allowed me the humbling assignment of serving Him through investing in the lives of people. I am truly excited about the opportunity to be the ADP Sports Director as we endeavor to operate a ministry of excellence.
