We spend our entire lives on different TEAMS… Family teams, athletic teams, work teams, church teams, etc… I think the ultimate team to be on is God’s team… Congrats Dad! You made the team. Rest easy- 🙏❤️🙏

Big time TEAMMATES allow unselfish special moments to happen.

TEAM over everything. Being on a team doesn’t make you a “teammate”
Teammate is an overused term. It shouldn’t be inherited,given,nor assumed. If you have folks that call you a ‘teammate’, but your interaction is always dependent on your mood or you aren’t even close to an everyday ‘guy’ = You are not a teammate-you are an associate. At best.

Does anyone have a chart they like for charting opposing pitchers? Tendencies/ sequences to each individual hitter? @ABCA1945 @643charts

For the haters of the run n’ gun... a few thoughts. 1. It’s probably about 3% of the pitching program 2. We realize you don’t do it so you bad mouth it in order to promote your brand 3. I get it, but give it a rest. You are bad mouthing 3% @DrivelineBB

Lots and lots of practice needed to learn the difference between + and - glove action and when to use them. How to “read the ball/hop” is extremely important for an IFer because it determines the glove action. #looselevers #suave – at Canyon, TX
Clip 1: observe a top DI SS “Receive-it” using a (-) glove action. Clip 2: observe a top HS SS “Pick-it” using a (+) glove action. Clip 3: observe a top 12U SS from the DR “Receive-it” using a (-) glove action. All 3, excellent actions letting the ball dictate what the hands do!

Thanks for the shoutout! Keep doing great things!
Replying to @ABCA1945
My ABCA journey began because of @Gawbage29 and his Twitter conversations with other coaches. Becoming an avid podcast listener resulted in FOMO and has connected me with great men @CoachSheets3 @EricPeterson713 @Coach_O_10 @AdamHightower11 and many others. #👊

Coaches on twitter do just as much EYEWASH as players do in practice. Just an opinion.
