1947, Jackie Robinson became the first African-American player in @MLB when he stepped onto Ebbets Field to compete for the Brooklyn Dodgers. His legacy is greater than the game of #baseball. Today we honor #JackieRobinson as a hero of civil rights.
Catcher, Wilson Contrares, posted this training video and we couldn’t help but grab the ideas. Great drills to do 🏡. 1️⃣ No Glove receiving 2️⃣ No glove receiving to popping-up to throw out a runner 3️⃣ Receiving with a glove. #catching#wemissbaseball@BabeRuthMAR
If you take advice from anyone, it should be Tony Gwynn. Here is a great way to use the T to move from the hardest pitch to hit to the easiest. Use at home w/ Wiffle balls.
Throwing a ball using a 4-seam grip is an essential skill to being a top defender. ⚾️ A 4-seam grip keeps the ball flat and straight during a throw to first, second or home. It’s also a grip that all young pitchers should be using to hit the strike zone. Good Luck! #baseball
Here’s a great #Hitting drill that focus on keeping your hands inside during the swing. You’ll need a T, some wiffle or heavy balls and a partner. Focus on keeping the hands inside for a quick swing. #baseball#softball#piedmont#piedmontpark#stayhomestaysafe 🥎⚾️
