Bergstrom thankful for excellent adventure

RICH ELLIOTT

BRIDGEPORT — Rafael Bergstrom didn't know where to turn. After not being selected in the major league draft in June of 2004, he could see his lifelong dream of playing in the big leagues fading faster and faster.

Bergstrom had worked out for the Colorado Rockies following an accomplished pitching career at the University of California-San Diego. His fastball was reaching speeds between 87 and 89 mph, and he was peppering the strike zone with deft precision. The scouts told Bergstrom they liked what they saw, but with the draft loaded with right-handers, no team offered a solid commitment.

The Rockies didn't bite. No team did. The disappointment was devastating. "I think when the draft came around and I wasn't drafted, I was a little bit crushed," Bergstrom said. "I thought I had that chance. So I just didn't know what to do. I didn't have many contacts with anybody. So I left and I just didn't know what I was going to do. I thought maybe that was it for baseball. And I went to Europe for six weeks that summer just traveling around."

The journey to Europe was a time for Bergstrom, now a 26-year-old starting pitcher for the Bridgeport Bluefish, to clear his head and ponder his next step. Baseball had been a part of his life for so long. He hoped to delay stepping into the real world for some time. Fortunately, as is the case so often, there are opportunities that seem to develop at the most unexpected moments. And once Bergstrom returned from his excursion abroad, he received such an opportunity. It was one that has since rekindled his competitive fire and kept his dream alive.

A chance, at last

James Sanders, a pitcher and former teammate at UC-San Diego, contacted Bergstrom. Sanders, who had been playing in Switzerland, was offered a job in Germany. Content to return to Switzerland, Sanders declined the offer and, in turn, recommended Bergstrom. The offer was not one Bergstrom would pass up.

"I was like, 'Well, it beats starting real life right now, I guess,'" he said. "It'll give me that chance to play and I loved Europe. So I went over there and just pretty much dominated in that league."

Bergstrom played in Munich, Germany, posting a 1.20 ERA with 170 strikeouts and approximately 20 walks in 120 innings. His salary was roughly $1,000 a month. But his airfare, housing and his subway pass were paid for.

At that point, just being able to play again was enough for Bergstrom. The talent level was not on par with that in the United States. They played doubleheaders on Sundays. Americans could pitch only three innings per game, so he played third base when he wasn't on the mound. And the conditions of the fields were suspect.

"Germany was kind of hit or miss," Bergstrom said. "Some of the fields were good. There was one field where they actually had a portable pitching mound. They built it out of wood. Every single time, you couldn't wear cleats when you pitched. You had to wear flats. (But) the group of people that were there in Germany were really good people. They took care of me. I loved Munich."

Bergstrom parlayed his experience into a return to Munich in 2005, when he posted an ERA of about 2.20 and led the league with eight saves — he would throw the last three innings of every game. The success still did not yield any offers from a major league organization or even an independent team, for that matter.

Unfazed, he moved on to play in Brisbane, Australia, in 2006. The level of competition was better and the field conditions were improved. Games were played on Friday and Sunday, and again, Bergstrom dominated. He was 13-0 with a 1.40 ERA, and he had 130 strikeouts and 25 walks in 110 innings.

But there was a catch, a big one at that. While there are teams who do pay its players, Bergstrom did not play for one of them.

"They gave me a host family and they just found me odd jobs to do to make money," Bergstrom said. "Like I was building houses and laying concrete, tying steel. A lot of the guys in Australia are just like (tradesmen). So I would just go along with them if they needed a hand, and they would pay me $20 an hour to do that. It was more of just like a six-month vacation playing baseball, which is fun."

The next stop on Bergstrom's world tour was the Israel Baseball League last season, when he played for the Bet Shemesh Blue Sox. He was 7-2 with a 2.44 ERA and had 60 strikeouts in 56 innings. He also led the Blue Sox to the league championship, spinning a complete-game shutout in the finale.

Games were played six days a week in Israel, where the competition was first-rate. Bergstrom earned $2,000 for two months. Housing was provided, but the entire league lived in the same complex.

"It was like a big summer camp," Bergstrom said. "Four guys sleeping in cots, basically. It wasn't the greatest conditions and the food was pretty garbage. I was sick for two weeks, dehydrated.

"The first week, everybody's kind of shell-shocked, like, 'What the heck are we doing here?' The fields weren't in good condition. But by the end, everybody was like this big family all playing in this league and just dealing with the situation and playing baseball."

Different culture

One of the fields Bergstrom spoke of was a converted softball field that had a warning track running through the middle of the outfield and a light pole in the middle of right field with a mattress taped around it. Both of the dugouts were on the same side of the field.

"It was pretty interesting," Bergstrom said. "It was crazy."

But this experience — and a league championship — brought Bergstrom to the United States for the first time in his professional career. With the assistance of Dan Duquette, the director of baseball operations for the Israeli Baseball League and the former general manager of the Boston Red Sox, Bergstrom became the first player from the league to sign a contract with a U.S. team when he joined the Bluefish last August.

"When I went (to Israel), I said, 'OK, this could be it unless I can continue to move forward,"' Bergstrom said. "And then I got the call from Dan Duquette about coming over here. I said I'm going to keep giving it that shot, as long as I keep progressing and feel like I'm improving and able to get guys out. Because it's been my dream, obviously, since I was a kid to play major league baseball. And that's what I've always wanted to do."

Bergstrom made six appearances (four starts) for the Bluefish down the stretch last season, finishing 0-4 with a 5.90 ERA in 29 innings. Manager Tommy John liked what he saw and re-signed him.

Through his first four starts this season, Bergstrom has been effective, although the final results don't show it. He is 0-1 with a 4.18 ERA in 23 innings, with 18 strikeouts, seven walks and an opponents' batting average of .233.

Bergstrom has also thrown first-pitch strikes to 56 of the 95 hitters he has faced (58.9 percent) and 217 strikes in 343 total pitches (63.3).

"I told Bergstrom one of these days we're going to win a ballgame for him," John said. "He throws all of his pitches. He throws strikes. I personally think he can pitch more with his fastball than he does. I think his fastball is better than what he thinks it is. He throws the ball well."

Bergstrom is simply happy to still be throwing the ball every fifth day. It might have taken a most circuitous route to jump-start his career, but after making stops in Germany, Australia and Israel, Bergstrom believes he's a better person for taking such a route.

Keeping the dream alive

A sense of confidence that plummeted after he wasn't drafted has risen to great heights due to his success overseas. Bergstrom also harbors a sense of pride, knowing that he persevered when a career in professional baseball once seemed to be a long shot.

"Not only just for the baseball reasons, just the opportunity that I had overseas expanded my world," he said. Bergstrom, who will make his next start Monday at Southern Maryland, was hoping to catch on with an affiliated club during the off-season. He said he had "a couple guys" talking to him about the New York Yankees bringing him into spring training. But it did not work out.

He still has not abandoned hope. Former Blue Sox teammate/outfielder Jason Rees and catcher Eladio Rodriguez, formerly of the Modi'in Miracle of the IBL, were signed to minor league contracts by the Yankees. Rodriguez is playing at Class AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, while Rees was released during spring training. Also, former Bluefish battery-mate Brian Peterson was signed by the Baltimore Orioles organization May 5, and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim signed center fielder Adam Greenberg May 9.

Bergstrom is optimistic that his productive start will draw some attention from scouts and possibly land him his first opportunity to compete within a major league organization. That would certainly make his long journey worthwhile.

"The first couple of weeks, they might be evaluating just on (statistics)," Bergstrom said. "I don't really know. I've never had the opportunity to really go on to that next level."

No matter where he ends up, Bergstrom appreciates his world travels.

"It brightened everything," he said. "I got to see all these different cultures and I feel like I grew up a lot over there. And it carries over onto the baseball field when you have a more mature attitude about things."
