Yep, here's the story from 2005: LINK.

I played on a couple of teams with the son.

EDIT: People always talk about Turtle Thomas, but Bailey seems to be underrated and largey forgotten as a great hitting coach. My impression of him was that he wasn't so much of a guy who mentored hitting styles as he was a guy that just enforced a healthy dose of good ole fashioned hitting discipline (he was an ex-principal after all). He was a hardass on players who swung at balls, who didn't get down to first base fast enough, who hit too many fly balls, who made too many outs on hitters' counts, etc. He used to always be out on the 1B coaches' box with that stopwatch in his hand, observing everyone's timing like a hawk.
