The people out there saying why sports can’t happen whether they are moved to spring or pushed back needs to stop. Whether it’s HS, NAIA, or NCAA, whatever we are presented with, make it happen! The kids just want to play, let’s do whatever it takes!!

Not once on a knee in potential blocking situations and received the glove sliders perfectly!! Pitchers also feed off catchers who provide them with this type of energy! Reminds me of Pudge, Benito, Borders, AJ, Kendall, and Ruiz. Salvy and Yadi still catch this way!

This group of young men did something that had never been done in school history! They also faced a lot of adversity this year but stuck together! I’m going to miss practices or before n after games with these guys. I will miss the fun they always had with each other and coaches!
This team was one for the books. Records were broke and standards were set. 48-12 is something to be proud of. Until next time Lewiston! We’ll be back!

MLB Draft Idea - 25 Rounds, this will make more teams draft kids who are willing to sign. This will get more kids drafted based off what they’ve done (production), not so many risks. Sucks to see kids not get drafted (with numbers) b/c teams are purposely drafting unsignable ppl.

One of the craziest plays I’ve ever seen! It’s a 1-2-3 putout at 1st base to start the 9th inning up by 1.
Line drive up the middle, swing the glove around and hit the ball back to the catcher for the 1-2-3 Putout.

Self promotion is sickening. Players and parents. I don’t know of one player who has received a scholarship offer from a tweet. Tagging schools and coaches is even more sickening. I am a true believer that in 2021 if you can play, they’ll find you. Period.

At
@KWUBaseball
we say every ball in play to the OF is a double out of the box. It’s up to the outfielder to field the ball correctly and with intent to keep
@us
off second. Base running’s an attitude, not a skill!!
Hustle doubles are THE best doubles.
Yes, Duran has elite running speed, but the mindset & effort required to earn the extra base have nothing to do with speed.
Why are hustle doubles the best? Because you earn 2nd by the way you go down the line to 1st.

This is my favorite week of the Fall. Nothing to do w/baseball, it's just about team, how far will you push yourself, and how you can help your teammates!! This was one of the best day 1's we've had! The challenge is carrying it through the week! Double Duty tomorrow!
