Baseball games last for as long as it takes to find a winner. This team from just outside Providence, RI learned that the hard way in a game that lasted more than 32 innings.
Mike Trout has 45 homers and is making over 33 million this year.
Yet, he is still hustling and beating out routine ground balls. You can’t teach heart. 💯 https://t.co/IjIxdfWXJI
Easy medball drill to help feel core stability, aid in rotational strength, and teach strong ground engagement through progressive series. Done in multiple sets of 5 reps in each position.
6lbs medball in the drill.

5: Optional
* 6: Start Day
When Long Tossing...
There are several reasons why you want to get air under the ball (arc) on the way out:
1) Range Of Motion
2) Optimal STRETCH prior to aggressive throws (pull downs)
3) Throwing uphill GREATLY promotes throwing downhill
4) Athleticism
5) Leverage
