Colin Levesque was originally drafted by the White Sox in 2004, but traded to the Mariners before the conclusion of the draft for a different draft selection, Graham Bosworth. Bosworth collected just 1 hit for the Sox that season, while Levesque opted to play for Cannon Club in the Park League with his brother Brendan instead of the MABL Mariners. Brendan and Colin Levesque have a strong baseball history, having both played baseball professionally in Germany in 2003 for the Erbach Grasshoppers .

In 2005, Levesque was back at the MABL draft, and this time selected by the Yankees in the 1st round. Levesque hit .406 in 15 games during the season, splitting time with Cannon Club. Levesque spent October of 2005 after the regular season playing in the MABL World Series with the Boston Cutters, where he became friendly with many MABL vets, including Reds' Sean Magee, who swayed him to make a move to the Reds for the 2006 season.

In 2006, after a quick 1 for 6 start in 2 games, the Reds and Levesque parted ways and the White Sox signed him immediately. Levesque finished the season batting .321 with a remarkable .487 on base average and a .500 slugging percentage. Levesque is contemplating a West Coast move for 2007, but if he remains local, he will remain an active member of the White Sox.

Appearances: 2006 Atlantic Conference Champion.
