“How can you not be romantic about baseball?”

A life is not important, except in the impact it has on other lives.

Face the storm head-on, move through it and you’ll get to the other side faster. Run from it, and you’ll suffer longer.

There are so many things that make a Game 7 amazing. My favorite is all 26 players doing everything they can to get the win. No one is hurt or unavailable. No matter your injury or when you last pitched, everyone is all in. Imagine a team playing every game with that approach?

Love this post. Learn to pitch. Change speeds & hit spots. Induce - weak - contact - early and you’ll get great results and save your arm!

RIP -Norman Dale. At the end of the game - in my book - you’re a winner.

A great week of hockey by the NHL proving once again that whether it’s your country or your hometown - there is nothing like playing when the name on the front means more than the name on the back.

Have a hard year - and you may look back and find it was your best.

Whether they are headed to the NFL or Middle School - every parent whose been lucky enough to coach their child can relate. The days of being dad and coach are some of the best ever.

One of the most exciting moments I remember in Baseball history - but it would look very different today as we waited five minutes for replay review to determine if the tag caught the runners shoelace or not. Despite the mistakes that humans sometimes make - I’ll take imperfect umps over replay any day.

Every player struggles. Fortunately most don’t have to do it in front of 50M people. But despite his public struggles, Aaron Judge has never thrown a helmet, never screamed at an ump or cursed on his way off the field. He remains engaged, pulling for his team and trying his best to fight his way out of it. This is why he is the Captain.

A great Dirt Ball Read made this possible. You’re never too big for DBRs!

High IQ play. Run at the receiving fielder to force the throw high or wide ( or maybe right into your back). Always take away the defenses throwing lane.

Questioning long held beliefs is a sign of strength not weakness. It’s how you confirm you’re still right or expose a better way. Challenge everything and you’ll keep improving.

“Body language never whispers - it screams”. What’s yours telling everyone who’s watching ? Over the summer as players work on their tools, don’t forget to improve this important weapon. It may matter the most if you’re looking to be recruited.
