As a catcher, bullpen sessions are so critical in developing that pitcher/catcher relationship and chemistry. Catchers, take bullpens seriously! Work with your pitcher, block pitches, build that trust. That’s one of the many successes in a program! #RTTO @TIUBaseball
Exciting opportunity of taking on a coaching position for the Lake County Stars 14U baseball team coming this October! Thank you Kip and Phil for this opportunity!
This 8th grader has had a ton of development in the years I’ve gotten to work with him. The most important piece to the puzzle? The training is challenging and fun. He looks forward to training every day!

“Lazy catchers on one knee.”
🙄🙄
How about lazy observer/fan/coach/etc that doesn’t collect enough data or perform it themselves to see the benefit of stealing strikes.
Who is the real lazy one?
Braves battle back from a 6 run deficit to tie it up, but Kenosha takes the final game of the series, 10-6. @jjbilotta7 (@RegentBaseball) hit another home run, Ethan Oskroba (@AUSpartanBase) and @befit_withb (@TIUBaseball) also had two hits each
Braves fall to Crystal Lake tonight, 5-3. Offensive provided by @befit_withb (@TIUBaseball) who had a 3 RBI triple. Same two teams back at it tomorrow night in Addison, 8pm start
It's easy to blame other people or situations when something doesn't go your way
It's time to CONTROL YOUR OWN DESTINY.
Only YOU can maximize your potential - don't let others dictate what you're capable of.

I caught in the Big Leagues for almost 10 years! I believe that I am more than qualified to call pitches at the college level but I choose NOT to!! Would never take that responsibility away from the pitcher/catcher relationship!! More to come about this!!!
A catchers main responsibility is Running The Game! Calling pitches is only a small part of this! Setting the pace of the game, keeping the pitcher in rhythm! Instilling conviction and confidence! A pitcher’s commitment to the pitch is more important than the pitch itself!!
