Master of reuniting socks. Citizens United is American cancer. Craft beer is trash. White liberals are the worst!

@TonemanLives Here’s the amazing and scary part. We have so many fcuking guns. It’s gonna get spicy if these communists think we are going to roll over like Europe. It’s gonna be bad.

@elonmusk We won’t get another chance. Ballgame is over. Game set match. This ends with bullets.

[Lord ManBeerPool @manbeerpool]

@elonmusk We can’t because our elections are fake

[Lord ManBeerPool @manbeerpool]

@TomSteyer Every ballot, fake and real

@wendyp4545 @IngrahamAngle One isn’t really alive the other three are a barely there. Traitors. When do the people just say fuck it and take the country back.

@RecTheRegime Start with the home grown liberal communists first

[Lord ManBeerPool @manbeerpool]

@ElofsonJess Big fan boss. But our bigger enemy is the liberal whites/foreign communists than the Jews. One enemy at a time.

When I was with the St. Louis Cardinals, we had a team meeting about hitting with two strikes.

Albert Pujols was leading it.

At the time, he was hitting something ridiculous with two strikes.

I want to say it was around .265.

Naturally, everyone wanted to know how.

So somebody asked:

"What's your two-strike approach?"

Albert's answer surprised me.

He said:

"I think fastball inside and hit it back through the middle."

That was it.

No complicated mechanics.

No secret formula.

Just:

Fastball inside.

Back through the middle.

I remember sitting there thinking:

"Why would you think fastball inside with two strikes?"

So somebody asked him.

And Albert said something I'll never forget.

He said:

"If I can hit a fastball inside back through the middle..."

"I can hit the fastball away."

"I can stay on the changeup."

"I can stay on the slider."

"I can stay on the curveball."

Then he paused.

And said:

"The ball gets deeper."

That's when it clicked for me.

He wasn't trying to pull the inside fastball.

He was using one thought to cover everything.

The more I thought about it...

The more it made sense.

So I started trying it.

And it changed the way I thought about hitting with two strikes.

Instead of worrying about every pitch...

I focused on one.

Fastball inside.

Back through the middle.

See it DEEP.

If you're struggling with two strikes, here's what I'd do tonight:

Round 1: Short Box

(Set the distance somewhere between front toss and batting practice.)

Have a coach throw only fastballs inside.

Your only thought:

"Fastball inside."

Drive the ball back through the middle.

10 swings.

Round 2: Mix Speeds

Now the coach mixes:

- Fastballs
- Changeups
- Breaking balls
- Sliders

But your thought never changes.

You're still looking:

"Fastball inside."

10 swings.

Round 3: Two-Strike BP

Every pitch starts 0-2.

Compete.

Battle.

Use the same approach.

"Fastball inside."

Back through the middle.

10 swings.

That's it.

30 focused swings.

One thought.

One approach.

One goal.

Drive the baseball back through the middle.

One thing I've learned:

Most hitters get worse with two strikes because they add thoughts.

Albert got better because he removed them.

With two strikes, simplicity is a weapon.
