Filled with a gratitude for a lot of people who helped me along the way.

Proud to represent two gritty staffs and teammates who were DUDES that completely turned two programs around.

Doane is a special place. To be cemented in its history means the world to me.

Ice. Stones. QB1. The guy you want up in the moment. Always his best down the stretch.

2 year starter who fields the hot corner/MIF @ a 96% clip and has become a weapon offensively.

I’ve been watching a lot of the Juco World Series this week on ESPN+, and it’s the purest form of baseball I’ve seen in ages. No K zone. No radar gun. Dodgy field. Just guys chasing dreams and a ring. I couldn't love it more. Especially considering this is who’s pitching tonight.

An absolute beast! An unmatched work ethic in the weight room with a motor that doesn’t stop in the trenches. You will not keep this guy down. Some school will be very lucky to have him!

Thank you to @scstormfootball for having me down for a visit!

Loved checking out the campus and seeing what it’s like to be a player/student there! @CoachBarnes21 @ENHS_Football @CoachADunn

[Jermaine Curtis @JermaineCurtis]

A parent asked me:

“My son crushes higher velocity…
but against slower pitching he keeps hitting balls off the end of the bat.”

One adjustment I learned as a player that I now teach my hitters:

A lot of hitters hit balls off the end of the bat against slower pitching…

because their trigger starts too early for the pitcher’s tempo.

Your trigger = when you begin getting ready to hit off the pitcher.

One thing Dusty Baker used to tell me was:

“When the pitcher shows his back pocket… you show yours.”

Against average velocity…
that worked great for me.

But against slower pitchers…

I learned to delay my trigger until later in the delivery... sometimes around hand separation.

Against higher velocity…

I might start getting ready as the pitcher lifts his leg.

The point is:

you can’t use the SAME trigger for every pitcher speed.

That’s why some hitters:
-pull off
-get out front
-hit balls off the end
-struggle staying through the baseball
against slower pitching.

So here’s something players can work on TONIGHT:

During batting practice:
-mix in different pitching tempos
-consciously delay your trigger against slower speeds
-focus on letting the baseball travel deeper

One thing I also use with this is the Barry Bonds drill I talked about earlier:

-catching the baseball with the top hand
-tracking the ball deeper
-training adjustability

Because great hitters don’t just have good swings…

they learn how to match timing to different tempos.

Thank you for reading,
Jermaine Curtis

P.S. - my goal is to help players play in high school, college, and pro...just like I did.
