This is why you need to be an elite... thrower (arm strength/accuracy/on the move) to play shortstop at the highest levels. This throw is 50 yards! Most high school aged players don’t even long toss 150 feet, but they think they can come close to making plays like this (backhands in the 5/6 hole) in 4 seconds. Players: prepare for all plays that must be made between the lines. The toolbox must be complete. It all starts with elite catch play before practices/games. Do hard better.

These 2 key throwing drills focus on body control... and following throws. Many players from youth through HS don’t have good body control to transition from an athletic move (play) into an accurate throw. They also don’t follow their throws. ** Instead they cut themselves off and lose all momentum and direction to target. Following a throw improves “carry” or the ability of a baseball to travel further with the same effort put into the throw. It also reduces stress on the arm. Lastly, when a player follows their throw correctly, it improves accuracy. ** Notice player 1 (LHP/1B) cuts off his follow just a bit compared to player two (C). Key: The faster you sprint into the throw, the more the follow will begin to happen naturally. Both players shown played in college after graduation and both had very strong college careers. These drills, as well as many others, should be done regularly to help players become elite throwers and significantly improve game success.

We’ve seen guys like Judge, Stanton, Wells and others... tinker with their stances to get into a better hitting position to attack strikes in the zone. When a guy like Volpe has struggled to hit consistently for his first 3 years, is constantly late on mid-velocity heaters in the middle of the zone and is constantly off-balance when he misses the off-speed stuff; you think to take a look at his pre-pitch habits especially what he’s doing with his hands and stride, and consider eliminating some of the unnecessary movements to simplify things and be ready to attack a pitch in the strike zone sooner. Volpe starts with his hands high above his head with some waggle to probably keep his hands moving and stay in rhythm, then as he strides he drops his hands into the slot while he loads, then wraps his hands behind him as he strides and keeps his weight back on his backside. That front foot needs to get down early as he gets his hands back to be ready to smoke something in the zone. Why hasn’t someone suggested dropping his hands pre-pitch in his stance to get them into the slot early, keep them back to prevent wrapping, and cut out one less moving part to get him better ready to attack pitches in the zone? He can even still have some waggle back there if he prefers to keep his hands moving. In theory if his hands are down and back already, all he needs to do is get his front foot down in time? It’s worth a try lolshow more

Was happy to get my first look at SS... Rock Arnold (OSU Cowboy Baseball) down in Jupiter. Went 1-for-2 in the game I saw him and hammered a backside RBI triple. Recently re-classed into the C/O 2026. Listed at 6'1" and 190-lbs, Arnold has a lean, athletic frame with some length in his lower-half and present strength. Stands fairly tall in the box, small leg lift gives way to a normal stride. Hands will drift and drop a bit in his load that includes a barrel tip. Present bat and hand speed, slightly uphill swing path that's geared towards lifting the baseball. There's a degree of adjustability in Arnold's swing, and he's shown the ability to drop his back knee to help create leverage. Some swing and miss, particularly against secondaries, but Arnold's swing decisions were sound and he stayed within the strike zone in my look. Has shown he can impact the baseball—especially to the pull side. Arnold's athleticism is evident both in the box and on the dirt. Flashed an above-average arm on the left side of the infield with solid carry across the diamond. Didn't display the quickest first step on the play I saw him attempt to make, though he showed comfortability attacking the baseball. Figures to get the chance to stick at shortstop. When bucketing these players out, Arnold fits into a handful of them: He's an athletic, lefthanded hitting SS with present power and potentially more on the way. Definite name to follow closely this spring in the Northeast.show more

Oh my! The cute baby and the adorable pet... cat are just so lovely! Look at the baby with those chubby cheeks and bright, innocent eyes that seem to hold the whole universe of curiosity. Every little movement of the baby, like the way they wave their tiny hands or kick their little feet, is filled with an irresistible charm. And the cat! With its soft fur that shimmers in the light, and those big, round eyes that are like two glistening jewels. When it moves, it's like a fluffy ball of cuteness gliding gracefully. When the baby and the cat are together, it's a scene straight out of a heart - melting fairytale. The baby's giggles as they try to touch the cat's tail, and the cat's gentle purrs as it rubs against the baby's side create a symphony of cuteness that can make anyone's heart melt in an instant.show more

Feel pretty strongly about this one... got a chance... to see Ollie Obenour again yesterday. He is an elite defender. Will play SS at a very high level. He has everything you want... actions, arm, intangibles, skill set, it's all there. Plays with a humble swagger that you can't teach. Wants the ball. He made a ridiculous diving play in the 5-6 hole with a rifle across the diamond. The type of play that only elite defenders make. Ollie is a dirtbag baseball rat from a baseball family. Always at the field or in the cages. High floor recruit with a huge ceiling. The type of player that you like more and more as you watch how he plays the game. Someone is going to get a winner.

Many people are unaware of this but Hand Dryers... get disgustingly dirty due to their design and the nasty environment they’re in All you have to do is flip the blower over These units pull air from the room and to blow on your hands. Public restrooms have high humidity, aerosolized particles from toilets like fecal matter and bacteria get airborne when flushing. So does dust, lint, soap scum, skin cells, hair, and mineral deposits from water. Over time, this stuff gets trapped inside But it gets even worse, there are real studies on this. It’s a real, well-documented issue Studies have shown hand dryers can blow out bacteria, sometimes including fecal bacteria, onto clean hands because they’re circulating contaminated air I never use these anymoreshow more

One player I've really grown to like over the... last several months is OF Kane Kepley (Carolina Baseball). Started right away at Liberty where he hit .310/.457/.432 with 13 XBH, but had a breakout summer in the Coastal Plain League to the tune of a .339/.468/.546 slash line with 8 2B, 5 HR, 26 SB and 29 BB to 11 Ks. Carried that momentum over into last season and hit .330/.482/.521 with 12 2B, 9 HR, 25 SB and an impressive 53 BB to just 27 Ks. Kepley then proceeded to have a productive summer on the Cape in which he was named an All-Star. Compact build at 5'8" and 165-pounds with sneaky strength packed into his frame. Crouched stance in the box with a medium-high handset and slightly open front side. Kepley has a minimal load and utilizes a toe tap that leads into a normal stride. With two strikes, Kepley will widen his stance and sit deeper in his base, choke up a bit, and shorten his stride in order to maximize his chances of moving the baseball. Quick hands with present bat speed. Will drop his back side to help create leverage. Overall, it's a compact operation in which he takes an efficient path to contact. Kepley's bat-to-ball skills and hand-eye coordination are outstanding. Last spring at Liberty, he boasted a 90% overall contact rate and a 93% overall IZ contact rate. It was a similar story this summer, as he ran an 89% overall contact rate and a 94% overall IZ contact rate. Kepley's pitch recognition skills and approach are both highly advanced and he rarely expands the strike zone. On the Cape, his overall chase rate was a minuscule 13%. Kepley has high-level barrel skills, a trait that is on display day in and day out. His bat control and adjustability are also advanced. Kepley is capable of using the entire field, but his highest quality of contact does come to the pull side. Hit tool is comfortably a 55, but it's closer to a 60. Kepley without a doubt is a hit-over-power profile, but there is a little bit of thump to the pull side. Has shown the ability to turn on pitches on the inner-half and drive them to the PS. For a player with this kind of profile, he posted respectable Max EVs of 106.1 and 101 during the spring and summer, respectively. Below-average power, but he'll run into a ball on occasion and hit 10+ HRs this spring. Not only is Kepley a plus runner, he most importantly knows HOW to run and get the most out of his legs. Quick first step and really advanced baseball sense both translate to the base paths where he's a chaos causer and speeds up the game for opposing teams. Kepley's speed also allows him to take an extra base on a ball in the gap or down the line. Across 179 games between college and summer ball, Kepley is 89-for-97 on stolen base attempts. Kepley this spring will rove CF for North Carolina. His speed and instincts plays at the position and he has gap-to-gap range with solid closing speed. Gets good reads off the bat. Kepley's arm is fringy, but his overall defensive skillset will give him the opportunity to prove he can stick at the position professionally. Versatile enough to play all 3 OF spots. Kepley is an old-fashioned baseball rat who plays at one speed. Selfless, high-energy player who can affect the game in a myriad of ways. A little reminiscent of Tommy Hawke. Top-5 round type this July.show more

Going with the trend of viral Korean baseball video... Seedance for video GPT Image 2 for image Prompt : Use the uploaded reference image as the strongest identity anchor. The woman must look like the exact same adult Japanese woman from the reference image, not a similar person. Preserve her exact facial identity, same soft oval face, same glossy lips, same delicate nose, same large expressive eyes, same pale smooth skin, and same long voluminous curly blonde hair with soft layered bangs. Create an ultra-realistic candid KBO baseball broadcast video scene during a lively night game. The woman is seated in the crowd beside her boyfriend, both wearing casual baseball jerseys among energetic cheering fans. She naturally watches the game while smiling and laughing softly with him. No dialogue, no talking, no cinematic acting. The interaction should feel completely natural and unscripted, like a real live broadcast moment accidentally captured by the stadium camera. She holds yellow cheering sticks and lightly taps them together while cheering for the team. The boyfriend leans closer and they share a very short soft kiss lasting about one second, subtle and natural, not dramatic or romanticized. Immediately after the kiss, she realizes the live stadium camera is focused on them on the giant screen. She becomes shy and slightly embarrassed for a moment, then gives a soft cute smile toward the camera while trying not to laugh. Her reaction should feel authentic, candid, and spontaneous, like a real fan unexpectedly shown on TV. Use realistic Korean baseball TV broadcast cinematography: long telephoto lens compression, slight handheld camera movement, subtle motion blur from cheering fans, realistic stadium lighting, shallow depth of field, natural skin texture, broadcast softness, authentic crowd reactions, imperfect framing, 16:9 live sports broadcast composition, genuine candid atmosphere.show more
