I am Rod Malloy

a family member of someone we've lost to ALS

California

I attended Whitey Ford's Camp of Champions and the Chairman of the Board himself encouraged me to keep my baseball dream alive.

Lou Gehrig’s story has deeply impacted my life from early childhood to adulthood. I dreamed of pitching for the New York Yankees and modeled my pitch delivery after Jim “Catfish” Hunter and Ron “Louisiana Lightning” Guidry. I attended Whitey Ford’s Camp of Champions and the Chairman of the Board himself encouraged me to keep my baseball dream alive. I keep that dream alive today with I AM ALS friends and in service as director and producer of the film ALS CURE (currently in production).
