What a weekend for our family down in Tuscaloosa. Can’t thank @rvaughnBAMA @MikeMorrison_25 @APapio13 and @JJacksonBAMA enough. All you want for your son is for him be surrounded by good people. Mission accomplished. #RollTide

Dude is getting torched by an entire city but he’s man enough to face the cameras and own up. I feel for the guy because he genuinely wants to help the Phillies win and he’s just not himself out there.A lot of respect for how he handles himself. Some athletes could learn from him.

Airfare $300. Rental Car $100. Hotels $250. Seeing my kid for the first time in 2 months and watching him play baseball. PRICELESS

“Hey Jon you’ve been to a couple WWBA’s. Where should we stay to be the closest to our games?”. Somewhere in this radius should work

Lay the size of New Jersey down on any part of any other state and you won’t find more concentrated talent in that area then Jersey has. Baseball, basketball and football. The amount of talent in this small state is insane. You won’t convince me otherwise

@cuddermontana @BenSimmons25 Without Ben on the floor Tatum does what he wants. Ben is a top 5 defender in this league not to mention Embiid would of gotten his touches in the correct spots down the stretch of those close games. So in short. False.

You always want your kids to “go off and do big things” that can’t happen unless you let them go off. Left the biggest piece of me in Tuscaloosa yesterday, but his happiness, his excitement and this opportunity is what gives me peace. Roll Tide 🐘

@em0n3y @donnymonarch @LegionHoops @ClutchPointsApp He was sober for 20 years, became depressed and slipped back into it. Again money doesn’t keep you from being depressed.

@JustinThind @KraigWith_A_K He told the front office, fire Brett Brown and I’ll sign. They didn’t want to fire Brown. A year after, they fire Brown.

First collegiate hit for my boy. Hoping it’s the first of many. Roll Tide 🐘.
First pitch swinging, @JonYoungJr1 delivers a solid line single to left with two outs B4. #BamaBaseball2025

I was 19 years old when i found out we were having Jon. Didn’t even have an idea of what i was going to do for work at that time. I didn’t know how to raise myself let alone another human being. Fast forward 18 years and my son is a high school graduate and headed to college 💜

My son is ready for Bama. I asked him where he was going he said “Walmart” i said “for what?” He said “looking at something” “ok” i said . Comes home with a bible in his hand. He told me “I’ve been reading the online one but wanted the actual Bible”. Happy Easter everyone.

@stonehouse_the @NFLFilms @brandongraham55 @Eagles @insidetheNFL Na you’re right. The Super Bowl champ who stripped Tom Brady to seal the Super Bowl against the dynasty that was the Patriots is scared of Brock Purdy and the gang.

@FadeAwayMedia @TheNBACentral @DieHardCBfans The same MJ that made 9 all defensive teams and won DPOY. The same MJ that had to played PG and He averaged 30.4 points, 10.7 assists, 9.2 rebounds, and 2.4 steals in 39.8 minutes over 24 games. That same MJ?.

@hoopshype I hear basketball player after basketball player call Joel the MVP of the league whether former or current but some 52 year olds behind the desk that have never dribbled a ball are the ones to decide it.

The 50th diamond classic win was won by Coach Mac. The man who played at Pitman and had a 100 hits. The man whose father brought him to every 💎 game when he was young. The man who lost his father this year. This one is for Mac’s father and we couldn’t be prouder #TNG

@CadBane554 @ThatManVino @larrymacc0404 @jaytatum0 Absolutely agree. Nobody was hurt. Can’t condone fighting in public places but it wasn’t an all out brawl with numerous people. Separate em, talk to em and let them go their separate ways.

@Bmatt0416 Remind me of my 4u down in Jupiter for the PG Rug Rat Showdown. Had two kids not even potty trained yet playing up and still brought it. One of my 4 year olds fresh off Tommy John at birth threw a 136 pitch 2 hitter to close out pool play. I feel this guys excitement. Amazing.

Can’t thank Coach and the rest of the staff enough for this gesture. Being able to stand in the coaching box one last time while my son hit was surreal. One last time taking his stuff and saying “we got two outs kid” was something i will remember forever. #TNG 💜.

I’ll be honest with you. I’ve watched alot of baseball games in my life. I’m no more wiser than the next, but Justin Lebron is a special special, day 1 type of SS that doesn’t come around too often. I’m very happy that he’s on our team. #RollTide

The comments on this are ridiculous. Bunch of has beens and never were’s being negative on a kid just playing baseball. I don’t get it, the kid will see it, he don’t deserve that.

I’ve recently seen negative comments under high school kids posting their highlights or progress in the gym. Under no circumstances is it ok to be negative under one of these posts. Whether you are a kid or an adult. It’s hard to put yourself out there especially at a young age.

So proud of dude. Special mindset, special mentality, special kid. More strong willed then i could ever be. He thrives in the biggest moments in life and on the field. The baseball part is awesome but the person part i couldn’t be more proud of as a father. I’m raising a dawg! 🐘.
I am extremely humbled to announce my commitment to The University of Alabama! Thank you to all of my coaches and family who have supported me along the way! Thank you to the Alabama coaching staff for this opportunity, that i am extremely grateful for! .Roll Tide!🐘

We are not racist, we are not misogynist against women, we are not garbage. We are blue collar, hard working Americans who just want a better life for our children. Nothing more, nothing less. Whoever provides that for us, we will vote for, nothing more, nothing less.

Been watching him play summer ball since he was 6, got to coach him the majority of those years. So many championships and memories. Pretty cool that his last swing as a “youth” baseball player in the summer was a homerun. Hell of an ending to a hell of a run @JonYoungJr1

Last swing in your high school career is a game tying 2-run double that’s out on 90% of the fields for your 100th RBI of your career. No moment was ever to big. No crowd could ever get you out your game. Absolute pro, absolute stud, absolute joy to watch.
Brand new ballgame courtesy of Young Jr., who ropes a fastball to The fence for a 2-run double . 4-4, no outs in bottom of the sixth .@delseaathletics @gr3champs .@CHW_Baseball @CHWestAthletics

Right now my son and his team are 0-2 at PBR 16u Nationals. Looking to win today but I don’t care, cause every morning they are working out, they are being taught discipline and they are experiencing what it’s like to be a ball player. He is 100% in the right place to grow.
