Ball Player! On and off the field
‘27 Clayton Fontenot (LA) finds some grass in RF for a 1B. Good set in the box & controls the barrel well. Just had a feel to hit. #EastCentralCC commit. @PG_DeepSouth #WWBAView quoted post on X
AMEN! Every day when you pick up a baseball, you are working on "throwing strikes"!!!
JUST THROW STRIKES!!View quoted post on X
Haha! The infamous words of many coaches and parents! 🤣
Yes, let’s throw strikes! But how do we do it consistently??
To throw consistent strikes we need a consistent release point. For a consistent release point we need to be consistent with our delivery. For a consistent delivery we need consistent weekly work with our delivery. For consistent weekly work with our delivery we need to be consistent with our weekly plan. To be consistent in our weekly plan we need to make time, not excuses. To find consistent time we need to be responsible and hold ourselves accountable.
To throw more strikes we need to be the most mentally stable person on the field, be able to stay under control in the midst of chaos and keep a clear positive mindset.
Throwing more strikes is the plan (I promise mom, dad and coaches we don’t want to throw pitches out of the zone) and our ability to do it consistently will most always come down to our preparation and level of mental stability.
