    ⚾️BLOCKING IS A MINDSET⚾️ CATCHERS- -Blocking is a total and 100% commitment to making sure that when the ball hits the dirt/turf that you do everything in your power to keep it within the inside lines of each batters box💪 @baseballifer11 @nextlevelbb @KerriganDan

    CATCHERS- PB/WP Recovery- - Max effort sprint to ball - Get to R side of baseball - L shin hits ground first allowing you to glide to ball - Pick up ball bare handed - R ft will get planted in the ground - Usually 3/4 or side arm toss back to P 👊

    CATCHERS- -If you are “too good” to catch bullpens when your pitchers need to throw them how do you expect them to trust you when the lights come on? Bullpen sessions are the closet thing to game action- *WE ARE NEVER TOO GOOD TO BE A BULLPEN CATCHER👍

    CATCHERS- When we talk about creating good angles back to the plate we are doing a few things- 1. Working back against the shape of the pitch 2. Opening the line of sight(Runway) for the umpire to get the best view of the pitch. -UNC vs FSU today here one of the best examples-

    For those that “frown” upon JUCO baseball go out out and watch the level of competition amongst these teams. If your son/player has the opportunity to play for a JUCO squad know that he most likely will see the best competition until pro ball. @baseballifer11 @butchbaccala

    ⚾️RAINBOW DRILL⚾️ -Designed to help instill trust and confidence in our catchers by forcing them to wait as long as they can below the baseball before making a positive mitt movement back towards the K zone. @baseballifer11 @nextlevelbb @KerriganDan @jace49932769

    CATCHERS- What staying connected looks like when working receiving progressions- -Oates Connection ball between forearm and chest- Ball does not come out until after ball is pocketed-if ball comes out before instant feedback that we can wait longer below the baseball👊
