*BASEBALL COACHES AND PLAYERS* I have created a Google Drive with videos of 200+ MLB and Former NCAA hitters from different angles. If you have interest in something like this, hit the RT and I will reach out on how to access it. Preview ⬇️⬇️⬇️

I’ve never been a fan of this list but I must give full credit for the addition of Frank Gallo. The most deserving of any due to the amount of years he’s volunteered and the amount of kids he’s helped. Elite ball doesn’t survive without coaches him. Congrats Frank!!
