In the age of “showcase ball” that is aimed only at exposing kids to college and pro scouts, it’s refreshing to see kids play for Each Other and the love of the game, with little regard for who’s watching. Baseball is better when played this way! #legionball

Since 1999, the last thing we practice before the season begins is how to properly stand for the National Anthem. Prior to his first Big League start, Bligh is standing just as he did At CMU, and how every player has stood at CMU since that time. #Proud #MLB #CMUmavericks

Difficult task for many college athletes.
I asked a school principal, a football coach and business leader when their team became a powerful team. They all said when we served each other instead of ourselves. We before me!.

@ABCA1945 1.High intensity repetitions in short segments/high volume over time2.Use immediate feedback gained from the flight of the ball(using eyes)to make the necessary adjustments for desired results 3. Hitter learns to develop “feel”for making adjustments.
