Garrett Hampson with a BHB to 3B
1) Early show . Better too early than too late.
2) Eyes & bat connected.
3) Good angle. Bat pointed towards 1st base coach.
4) Good speed & direction. Not too fine.
5) Sees ball down then runs.

Simple knee up transition move by the Cubs Miguel Amaya on this CS. The angled setup also streamlines the process.

I wish more coaches understood this quote.

Coaches: Would you get 3 Yes's from your athletes when asked...
Do you trust your coach?
Is your coach committed to excellence?
Does your coach truly care about you?
Those are 3 Yes's more important than W's (and lead to more W's too 😉).

Key takeaways on this 1.78/.56/81.5 throw out by the Cubs Owen Ayers.
1) Aggressive transition move to gain alignment.
2) He goes out to get the ball.
3) Low transfer with ball not coming to rest in the glove.
4) Still head locked on his target throughout.
5) Compact rotational axis. Glove stays in box between hips & shoulders.
6) Fast decel with hips stopping rotation.
7) Lead leg straightening on release. Part of decel process.

THE ANATOMY OF TWO BIG CATCHER ARM SIDE MISSES THAT LAND IN THE STRIKE ZONE
CARSON KELLY CHICAGO CUBS
1) The 1st is away from a RHH. Note the extension to catch & the body stillness( No pivot or loss of contact with the umpire). This pitch was called a ball because of the big miss & it was away from the umpire’s visual tunnel. It was challenged & reversed.
2) The 2nd is in to a LHH. The intent was away. Again extension,little or no movement & adequate hold timing. This pitch was called strike because of the efficiency of Kelly’s movement but more than anything else, it was into the umpire’s visual tunnel.

An athlete takes a huge step forward when a coach doesn't have to ask them to work hard, extra, or correctly.
It's called taking OWNERSHIP.
Challenge yourself in 2026 to be that athlete.

Blue Jays Brandon Valenzuela tuns a 24% strike into a called strike.
1) Smooth & fast.
2) Quick one pieced move.
3) Good hold. Not rolling through the catch.
4) Catches the ball up to the plate working from flexion to extension.

A coach will coach your technique.
A coach will coach your game intellect.
A coach will coach your practice habits.
A coach will coach your fundamentals A coach should NOT have to coach your energy.
Ever Your energy reveals your attitude & how badly U want it.

Construction > Destruction.
Building confidence is the harder, better path.
Tough love that builds beats easy criticism that breaks.
How do you build while demanding excellence?
