Like his father, Darren developed a strong connection to baseball. After being <strong data-start=\"786\" data-end=\"821\">drafted by the Seattle Mariners<\/strong>, he played in the <strong data-start=\"840\" data-end=\"857\">minor leagues<\/strong> and later transitioned into coaching. Darren worked as a <strong data-start=\"915\" data-end=\"943\">baseball coach and scout<\/strong>, helping to identify new talent and contribute to the sport beyond his playing days.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1068\" data-end=\"1107\">David Mazeroski<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1109\" data-end=\"1422\">According to the report, David Mazeroski, the younger son of the baseball great, chose a different professional route.

The family includes <strong data-start=\"1526\" data-end=\"1548\">four grandchildren<\/strong>, who brought joy in Bill\u2019s later years. Darren is married to Jill, and David is married to Kelly.
