David Adam LaRoche was born in Orange County, California. Adam is married to his wife Jenn, and has two children, Drake and daughter Montana. Adam was originally signed by Brave’s scout Brian Kohlscheen, and is now currently playing with the Pirates organization as a first basemen. His father, Dave, pitched for the Angels, Twins, Cubs, Indians and Yankees in the 1970s and early 1980s. As we say in the south, hunting and fishing has always been in Adam’s blood. When Adam isn’t tossing the baseball around, he is usually preparing for the next hunting season. As fall arrives and the leaves begin to drop, he quickly trades his ball and glove in for a bow and arrow.
