Retired professional baseball player Jay Gibbons, now the hitting coach for the Great Lakes Loons, a Class-A affiliate of the Dodgers, has listed his home in Thousand Oaks for sale at $2.995 million.

Gibbons, who played college baseball at Cal State L.A. after graduating from Mayfair High in Lakewood, bought the house in 2012 for $1.8 million, records show.
