@JGelnar7 Can you send me the prompt that you used?

[Howie Dewitt @howie_dewitt]

@BBGreatMoments @GowagsKyle The strikeout record seems pretty safe as well. The pendulum will have to take a mighty swing in the other direction for it to be in danger.

@BlindTailer @Graver25 @GowagsKyle 😂 I get what you’re saying. Just interesting when you dive into the term. Originally coming from the 5-4-3 dp. So adding the SS along the way just makes sense. Another question might be - when did they decide to exclude 1B?

@BlindTailer @Graver25 @GowagsKyle It’s called “around the horn” NOT through the horn. (‘Lil sarcastic humor).

@JonKarcich @andrewmmathias No sarcasm but was this taken to the extreme last night? 12 K’s and 14 LOB. At some pt. u must swing the bat. With 2 out and/or 2 strikes u can’t “just be looking”. Must be adjustable. If pitcher is ON, you may not get your pitch. At some point u must swing at what u will get.

@speckcaller It’s tough, ain’t it?

[Eric Hosmer @TheRealHoz35]

Whether you like him or not you gotta give credit where credit is due …. @Teacherman1986 and Judge have unlocked a different style of hitting that’s made Judge one of the best in the game today and on his way to being one of the all time greats in our game.

On the podcast, @TheRealHos305 talks about the changes Aaron Judge has affected as a hitter.

[Matt Lisle @CoachLisle]

“I don’t want to teach just baseball, because I don’t want to face the Lord one day and he tells me, ‘I sent you over 600 boys for you to turn into men. I see you turned them into baseball players, but you didn’t turn them into men.” -

“ if our ultimate goal is really to get home, to get to heaven, then I think we should be arming them with some of the tools to reach their ultimate goal I haven’t read yet that their ultimate goal in life is to be a baseball player. That’s questionable in my opinion.”

“Wags, why does my kid STEP OUT when he’s hitting?”

[Steve Johnson @LegKickNationOG]

1B and 3B coaching in any “development” age baseball game is one of the dumbest things I’ve seen in youth sports.

Grown men telling kids when to stop, when to go, when to take, when to swing - legit destroying opportunities for kids to learn the game.

[Aaron Fitt @aaronfitt]

Struggling to process this news. Elliott Avent has been at NC State for 25 years. This is just the third time ever the Wolfpack has been to Omaha. This team was one win away from its first-ever trip to the Finals. To have it end with a “no contest” is just excruciating.

[College Baseball Central @CollegeBaseCNT]

Does the NCAA realize they’ve been selling tickets for Vandy-NC State all day? Clown show.

[College Baseball Central @CollegeBaseCNT]

Let the madness begin

[Howie Dewitt @howie_dewitt]

ABSOLUTELY
TERRIBLE
