Some of my best swings of the summer, going into my senior year #uncommitted #classof27 @LockeWheeler @BrandonEfferson

When i was a kid, my dad used to embarrass me on purpose. We'd be walking through a mall... Eating at a restaurant... Or at a county fair... And he'd look at me and say, "Dance." Right there. In front of everyone. As a kid, I thought he was crazy. I would get so mad. Years later, I finally understood what he was doing. He wasn't trying to embarrass me. He was teaching me not to fear embarrassment... And not worry what others thought of me. Because the moment you become afraid of what other people think... You become a prisoner. You stop taking chances. You stop expressing yourself. You stop becoming the person you're capable of being. I've seen it in my own life. The times I struggled the most...in baseball and in life...I was usually worried about everyone else's opinion. My coach... my teammates The times I performed my best... I didn't care. I was free. Now I see the same thing with some of the players I coach. They're talented enough. But they're afraid of looking bad. They're afraid of failing. They're afraid of what everyone else might think. So here's the lesson my dad passed down to me... And now I'm passing it down to you: The life you want is usually on the other side of embarrassment. The next time you have a decision to make, ask yourself: "Am I choosing this because it's right... or because I'm afraid of what other people will think?" Choose courage. It changes everything.

Do yourself a favor, and did not ever do business with @Enterprise rental cars! 👎🏽 #bebetter #dobetter #sorrybusiness

If your kid missed a playoff game for the prom and was dismissed from the team. Do this. Schedule a meeting with the athletic director and principal. Walk in their office with your game face on. Thank them for hiring a coach that held your kid accountable. Tell them you have raised your kid to believe he can do whatever, whenever, however he wants and you're thankful the coach expected him to be a great teammate.

4 at bats against Jackson Prep, 2-4 with 2 singles #uncommited @BrandonEfferson @LockeWheeler

Baseball is a life lesson in disguise. You’ll fail. A lot. You won’t control the outcome. You’ll get humbled fast. But if you stick with it… You learn discipline. You learn toughness. You learn how to respond. That’s why the game matters ⚾️💯

Hitters Be Smart. 0-0, 1-0, 2-0, 3-0 swings need to be exactly what you're looking for, exactly where you're looking for it, and you need to be locked in enough to put your best swing on it. 0-0, 1-0, 2-0, 3-0 outs on shitty swings are game changers. They feed pitchers. Elite pitchers want you swinging, and they want you swinging a lot. They can't stand disciplined hitters that force pitch counts. Great hitters walk a lot. Because they refuse to help pitchers get them out.

If the WBC was travel ball… Team USA is about to miss bracket play. Bryce Harper’s dad and Alex Bregman’s dads are in the parking lot forming a new team since their kids are on the bench tonight.

My 2 stand up doubles from this season so far, both off of low to mid 80s fastballs

#1 HR 💣 26 season Grand Slam

This is a great example of having the right approach & good mechanics yet you still fall just short. This game is hard! Proud of this at bat, one tick away from likely an RBI double in LF corner…ends working a walk. Good at bat Flipp! #hotbats #SillimanBaseball #classof2027

Put this on repeat...

There is a lot more to hitting than standing on 1 leg and trying to create some picture perfect swing! Listen to Johnny Gomes talk about all that goes into being prepared to face a certain pitcher. I personally wanted to know the velocity of his pitches and what was his OUT pitch. I hunted the fastball 99.99% of the time until 2 strikes. With 2 strikes I looked fastball middle away and adjusted to the off speed. I believe many of today’s @MLB hitters are guessing based on the percentages of types of pitches that particular pitcher throws and trying to hit the ball hard in the air. This is why the strike out rates are through the roof. #shegone @notgaetti @BobFile @twuench @billdubs @SliderDominate @slider_sinker @ROXSystem @BLocsports @TheRealJHair @DMEASrecruiting @WillClark22 @GDBJr5 @mikepiazza31 @RealCJ10 @SimplyAJ10 @_mcameron44 @GarysheffieldJr

Good laugh. “We have $4,000 worth of bats in the dugout, and we have 2 hits!”

Differences between live pitching and hitting off a machine Do you think machine helps or hurts with timing?

I don’t care if @TheJudge44 thinks this is why he’s so good what bothers me are all the kids whose parents think this is going to make their kids great hitters! This garbage is hurting kids and that is the truth! #shegone @twuench @billdubs @SliderDominate @ROXSystem @_mcameron44
