All MLB teams use one-knee down stances with runners on base.

High school coaches - if you're up by a lot, do you stop your team from running and go station-to-station? If so, why and what are your criteria for switching? If not, why not?

Youth baseball coaches - do you do the standard pre-game routine of one coach hitting, an assistant coach catching, and the entire team in one line waiting their turn for one ball, like below? Try this instead: https://t.co/dVcwOhIEtS

@DrivelineBB Smash Factor Ball. Used maybe several times over 5 sessions. Driveline refused to replace it, saying there is no warranty on SFBs. With that kind of customer service, I do not recommend buying them.

@BarrettSallee Not sure I agree. If that same exact play happened in other stadiums in the same exact situation, I'm guessing whatever home town fans in that stadium would be roaring the same exact way.

7 checkpoints for swing mechanics. What are they? https://t.co/ui7PVVsxUp

@alwaysdadszn @USSSA 100% that this behavior is unacceptable (at any age). But it is a fallacy to use this to argue that dads past 13u shouldn’t coach their kids. This is like saying parents can’t be high school teachers because of one misbehaving teacher.

@ThatGuy__Kai congrats on being interim manager. Praying the @SFGiants remove the interim title. Truly no one better for the job.

Just saw Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning. What a fun, creative film from the legend @TomCruise and christopher mcquarrie. Everyone should go see it. I can't wait to see it again. But there's a character who dies and it just crushed me. 😭😭😭Why that character????

439 MLB players have made at least 35 competitive runs to first base so far this season.

None have had a quicker average time than Shohei Ohtani!

4.07 seconds! 👽

I'm boycotting @GeneralMills products over their withdrawal of advertising on Twitter, which is their response to @elonmusk taking over Twitter. I encourage you to also boycott GM for opposing free speech.

@AlLeiter22 would you be willing to come on the Youth Baseball Edge podcast to share your story of how you raised Jack as part of series on Baseball Dads? Have had dads of Nolan Arenado, Andrew McCutchen and Ben Zobrist on show. Would love to have you on!

Misinformation: "Don't drop the back shoulder!"
True information: "Bruh"

What do you think of this: "When what they must do exceeds their capabilities, the result is anxiety."

[Youth Baseball Edge @edgybaseball]

First practice with your team? Do not mention your years of experience coaching. 1) it connotes you cannot learn b/c you're an "experienced" coach. 2) it doesn't matter... you could have 20 yrs coaching experience but it's all based on misinformation. #humility

Don't bench your backup shortstop if he's better than your starting third baseman. Instead, teach your backup shortstop how to play third.

[Youth Baseball Edge @edgybaseball]

@PatchPD Love what you're teaching. Would you be interested in coming onto my youth baseball podcast to break down infield development? Would be an efficient 30-60 min interview over Skype (audio-only; no video).

[Youth Baseball Edge @edgybaseball]

@PHill_bone Hi, I'm host of the @edgybaseball (youth baseball) podcast. A listener enthusiastically recommended you come on the show to talk infield. Would love to have you on to talk the 6Fs + nuances of each IF pos. Would you be willing to hop on the show?

[Youth Baseball Edge @edgybaseball]

@SamMillerBB Best wishes, Sam. Keep me posted on what you do next.
