Short fungos are the infielder’s equivalent to front toss for hitters. The closer distance and slower speed allows for a focus on a specific play/drill. Here, wide base ground balls isolate getting down into the legs, working from the ground up.

Blocking is a catcher’s badge of honor. But it’s not just about keeping it in front. It’s just as important to keep it close to recover quickly. With a simple circle, blocking reps can take on a higher level of productivity and competitiveness.

At the Xplosion, fundamentals are consistently drilled. Here’s the group doing our “daily” drills. Regardless of the position, soft hands and hand-eye coordination is needed.

Exception: Xplosion Baseball where fundamentals absolutely drive the way we train. If you can’t do the little things right, you will never truly progress.

Lou Brock the Base Burglar was a class act on and off the field. Made @Cardinal baseball what it is. Had the ability to change the momentum of a game with his legs and his bat. May he Rest In Peace. One of the greatest Cardinals of all time.
