Majority of the HS age baseball world needs to fully understand this!

I will never understand the message that it is passing along to kids, not to mention the liability and risk the parents are taking...too many look the other way, including law enforcement. The CYCLE continues in small towns.

Popular Myth:
Kids need to play on sports teams with their friends.
Reality:
Not usually the case for ultra-competitive kids.
Being a great friend does not equal being great teammate.
You can be an awesome friend, and a shitty teammate.
You can have awesome teammates that you don’t hang out with outside of team activities.
Just how it goes.

Working on a few little mechanical adjustments with my back knee drive off the mound today. @andybidochka @brodyware @TravisFerrick @CodyJefferis

Coach nails it.👇
Metrics tell us what a player can do. Competition reveals how he responds when it gets hard.
For me, both matter.
Give me the numbers, knowledge is power, and then let me see what YOU do after a punchout, an error, or a bad inning.
Your ceiling gets attention. Your response to adversity earns trust. 💯

Congratulations to Stella Maple for earning a spot on the IHSGCA All-State Team! (The IHSGCA All-State Team is made up of the top-10 finishers at the state finals and the top-10 points earners throughout the entire season). Congratulations Stella!
100% agree... hadn't seen course in 30 years and was very pleasantly surprised. Look forward to another good day tomorrow!
Huge kudos and congrats to @BattleGroundCC @IHSAA1 & @indianahsgolf on the girls golf state finals. Incredible job organizing and setting up the tournament and the golf course is terrific… very impressed.

A great opportunity for anyone who may be interested in playing middle school golf this spring, high school boys golf this spring, or high school girls golf next fall. Beginners and new players are encouraged to attend!

David Wright explains how to identify a selfish teammate
“To me, that’s what shows everybody what you’re made of. Anybody can smile and have a good time and enjoy the game when things are going their way and you’re having success.”
“But it takes a special person to be a good teammate. To be the first one to high-five the guy when they do something good, even though you’ve had three strikeouts that game.”
“What face do you put on in the locker room when you got four hits and the team lost compared to when you went 0-for-4 with four strikeouts and the team won? Happy-hit guy. Happy-hit guy is a term that we use to this day.”
“I think that differentiates between the true great teammates and the winners and the guys that are out there trying to do it for themselves. It’s just dealing with failures, dealing with adversity, and it’s a small sample size of what you’re going to get in real life.”
Thoughts on this? Is this being nit-picky? Saw 2 balls almost not go down today due to leaning flags.

The changeup question, answered by a Big Ten staff: Maryland will not start a pitcher who cannot throw three or more pitches in the strike zone, and one of them must be a changeup or splitter. Jimmy Jackson calls the changeup the equalizer. Every kid wants to spin the ball. Those who start on Friday learned to take speed off it.

We have velocity clinics everywhere popping up. They’re killing it financially, training players to throw harder and harder.
When is someone opening Throw Strikes University?

You just had pancakes for breakfast. Your best friend is coming over to watch college football. There’s no school on Monday. Your parents don’t care how late you stay up. A perfect Labor Day weekend. You’re 41. It’s 2026.

I couldn’t possibly agree with Jeff Kent more!
The game has gone too far concerning ANALYTICS and it needs a reset!
I would estimate that 99.99 % of retired @MLB players will agree with Jeff Kent!
