Reminder: FIELDING on-the-run doesn’t necessarily imply we’re forced to THROW on-the-run. GOALS: 1️⃣ Develop comfort in securing the ball in your highest gear 2️⃣ Develop the body control to set and gather your feet thereafter #toolbox #FridayFielders

"Early in my career, I used to think of players as assets...I used to think of teams as portfolios. The truth...is that a player's character matters The heartbeat matters The player's impact on others matters The tone he sets matters." A beautiful speech by Theo Epstein

Beautiful day on one of the most gorgeous campuses in the Midwest! #IWU #GoCats🐾

The most important events in life are the connections we make. When we take the time to go deeper with others, even a stranger, that’s when the magic happens, the unexpected, we learn, we are inspired, we are surprised, we find a friend. Your closest friend was once a stranger.

Sequencing … ✅🔑

PREP TIMING 1) The “descent” of our prep landing should take place at point of contact or as ball crosses plate. This gives us best chance to read/react to GB. 2) When we are slightly late with our prep, we can hit the ground and drive off the R or L foot at immediate impact.

Speed & trajectory of baseball + speed of runner = INF Read x Route. 💡Just because initial move is forward, doesn’t mean we are prohibited from moving back if time allows. 💡Know when to attack vs drop step based on the formula. 💡Create hop YOU want based on the formula.

All about attention to detail with big leaguer Vinnie Pasquantino (Vinnie Pasquantino). Extremely small sample size of our defensive workout.

Infield work with Zach Dezenzo (Astros) and Matthew Major (Tulane Commit). Two studs getting after it! 🔥

Displayed are 4 out of the 10 INF categories I like to track for our guys in game. Each GB is tracked by 10 categories; as a defense, we can work to target schemes, deficiencies, & areas of strength based on the data and film collected. Data + film = 🔑
