My son got invited to pitch at the new PLNU Biomechanics Lab that the Padre pitchers use. We are stoked.
@PLNUBiomechLab
are the best people. Amazing facility and opportunity. Just gotta keep working hard.

We grieve with our extended Padres family and pray for Peter Seidler and his family. A compassionate and true visionary whose legacy will impact our community for many years to come.
I had never written an obituary about a friend. I don’t use that term lightly. A reporter rarely ends up truly being friends with someone they cover. But Peter was a special man.
God bless his beautiful family.
Padres Chairman Peter Seidler dies at 63

Congrats to one of our own! Jason was not only a meticulous GA in the lab but was also a great mentor to
@plnu
students in undergrad biomechanics!
Excited to share that I've started a new position as an Applied Biomechanist with the Chicago White Sox! Looking forward to working with the team in Arizona and embarking on this new journey. Thank you to everyone who supported me along the way.

Injuries to starting pitchers have been particularly impactful in baseball this year. Is it the pitch clock’s fault? via

Yes! This is the “bat cave” in our lab and it features 4 force plates in the box, full motion capture, bat swing sensors, and a hitting simulator for a full-body 3D kinematic and kinetic analysis of hitting! 🦇⚾️🟤🟡🟢
