Biographical Information

Becquey pitching at the 2009 European Junior Championship

Quentin Becquey was still a high school student studying at the French Baseball Academy (Pole France) in Rouen when he made his Division Elite debut on April 26, 2009 pitching for the Rouen Huskies against the Lions de Savigny-sur-Orge. He had also played for Rouen in the 2009 European Cup, with two strikeouts, a walk and one double play grounder in four plate appearances. Becquey was chosen for the 2009 MLB European Academy.

In the 2009 European Junior Championship, Becquey was 0 for 3 with a walk for France, which won the Bronze Medal.

After his studies, he said that he would like to play for an American college and earn a contract playing for an independent league. These dreams were partly fulfilled when he managed to play a couple of seasons for Dominican University in 2014 and 2015, where he was mainly a first baseman. He then returned to Rouen, being part of a number of championship teams before rising to the position of manager. He also served as pitching coach on France's U23 national team.
