Career
Beerer attended Newport Harbor High School in Newport Beach, California. Undrafted out of high school, Beerer attended junior college at Orange Coast College to begin his college baseball career.[1] Drafted by the Texas Rangers in the 23rd round (681st overall) of the 2001 Major League Baseball draft, Beerer did not sign. Beerer transferred to Texas A&M University, where he played for the Texas A&M Aggies baseball team in the Big 12 Conference of NCAA Division I. Beerer pitched and played as an outfielder for the Aggies.[1] He was named a first team NCAA Division I All-American utility player, Big 12 Conference All-Star relief pitcher, and Big 12 Conference Newcomer of the Year that season.[2][3]
Beerer was drafted by the Colorado Rockies in the second round (47th overall) of the 2003 MLB draft.[1] He signed with the Rockies, receiving a $725,000 signing bonus.[4] Injuries plagued his pitching career with the Rockies organization. Assigned to the Casper Rockies of the Rookie-level Pioneer League, Beerer tore his labrum while transitioning into a starting pitcher.[1] In 2007, Beerer asked the Rockies if he could transition into an outfielder. When they declined, he retired from baseball and began training to become an emergency medical technician.[1][4]
He continued to work out in baseball that offseason, practicing his swing with Brady Anderson.[1] He chose to return to baseball for the 2009 season.[2] After observing him, the Rockies invited Beerer to spring training in 2009 as an outfielder.[1] In 2011, Beerer was named a Texas League All-Star while playing for the Tulsa Drillers.[4]
With Anderson's recommendation, the Baltimore Orioles signed Beerer as a minor league free agent and invited him to spring training in 2012.[5] He played for the Norfolk Tides of the Class AAA International League.[6]
In 2016, Beerer was hired as a hitting coach for the Aberdeen IronBirds of the Class A-Short Season New York–Penn League.[7]
