Cloud takes baseball coaching baton from Moulton at Bishop

Bishop Diego announced Wednesday that Casey Cloud will be taking over the school’s baseball program next year to fill the void left by departing head coach Brian Moulton.

Cloud, a graduate of Santa Barbara High, played in the College World Series as a catcher at UCLA and played professionally in the Pittsburgh Pirates organization for three years. Cloud also played and is currently a coach for the Santa Barbara Foresters.

Moulton guided the Cardinals to postseason births in two of his three seasons and added a Frontier League title in 2008.
