To field consistently, keep the ball and your glove in the same view. Reach out front, soften your elbows, and see it into the glove 👀

Freddie Freeman says his 69 year old dad still throws him batting practice everyday because he believes not everything has to be about getting better, and says the hour they spend together is worth more than any amount of reps with a real pitcher or coach
“When people ask me, ‘What advice do you have for my 10-year-old?’ I say, ‘It’s not for the 10-year-old. It’s for you, the parent.’ My dad loved practicing and throwing batting practice and doing those kinds of things with me every single day. When you have a parent that loves it just as much as I loved it, it’s kind of a match made in heaven.”
“My dad was the one that led me to baseball, and then obviously I just loved it. He was fueling that fire. He still throws me batting practice to this day. In the offseason, I’ll take about two months off baseball activities. Then in January I’ll go to my high school in Orange County, and we’ll spend an hour together. I work out with him and he throws me batting practice.”
“He’s 69 years old and he still throws. The last two years he goes, ‘Freddie, I’m not very good anymore.’ And I said, ‘Dad, that’s not the thing. It’s not about that. It’s about the hour we spend together.’”
“I’ll figure it out in spring training. I hit every day there. I just want to hit with you. This is our thing. He thinks he’s not very good, but I think he’s great.”

Interesting observation. The Brewers (almost without exception), seemed to stay within the team colors for all their added gear.
There’s a reason it’s called a UNIFORM. In baseball, your cleats, batting gloves, sliding mitts, elbow guards, and sleeves should reflect your TEAM colors, not draw attention to yourself.
The name on the front matters more than the name on the back.
Look like a team. Play like a team. Win as a team.
WE over ME.

6 catch play movements to build into your program.
Playing catch is not just about warming up your arm. Add these six movements to your catch play.
1. First base footwork, striding with your glove side foot directly to the baseball.
2. Tag footwork, right foot forward, slap the tag down.
3. Relay footwork, get sideways and turn glove side.
4. Middle infielder receiving from the first baseman.
5. Second base receiving from the shortstop.
6. Infield pivots, turning arm side.

The legendary Star Trek and X-Men star, Patrick Stewart has passed away at 86, ending a remarkable career that stretched more than six decades across Shakespeare, television and blockbuster cinema.
For generations, Stewart represented a different kind of hero. As Captain Jean-Luc Picard, intelligence and diplomacy were his greatest weapons. As Professor Charles Xavier, he became the calm center of a world divided by fear and prejudice.
But those two icons only revealed part of his range. He could become a hardened warrior in Dune, a terrifying extremist in Green Room, a comedic king in Robin Hood: Men in Tights, or return to his classical roots as Ebenezer Scrooge and Captain Ahab.
Some of his most famous live-action roles:
• Jean-Luc Picard — Star Trek
• Professor Charles Xavier — X-Men
• Gurney Halleck — Dune
• Darcy Banker — Green Room
• King Richard — Robin Hood: Men in Tights
• Ebenezer Scrooge — A Christmas Carol
• Captain Ahab — Moby Dick
• Dr. Jonas — Conspiracy Theory
• Alistair Burke — Frasier
• John Bosley — Charlie’s Angels
Stewart passed at his Los Angeles home after what his representative described as a brief journey with Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body dementia, surrounded by family and friends.
He gave science fiction two of its greatest leaders, but his legacy reaches far beyond the stars and the X-Mansion.
For more than 60 years, Patrick Stewart showed us that the strongest presence in the room could also be the calmest.
Rest in paradise, Sir Patrick Stewart 🕊️
