Cardinals baseball is awesome. From 2009-12, Nick Derba was a catcher for the #SGFCards . Nick made it all the way to Memphis before retiring. Last weekend, he returned to Hammons Field as head coach of @MaineBaseball for their series vs. @MSUBearBaseball . Pretty cool!

Our wins and losses in this young season for @MaineBaseball (or for any team) revolve around the simplest victories. Did you make the routine play? Throw strikes? Hit fastballs? Do them and you have a high probability of winning. Don’t...you’re probably losing. #basicbaseball

Athletes - Remember this feeling of the game being taken away from you for a bit. Because I promise you’ll have this feeling again, no matter how old you are. Stop taking practice for granted. Take every rep like it’s your last, and practice like you play every single day.
