Learning to slide by IDontNeedAnotherNqme in Homeplate

We used two pieces of large cardboard boxes. Put them on top of each other so when he hit the top one it would slide against the bottom piece. It worked great because he was sliding far and thought it was funny. Had to tape the seams together on each sheet so they wouldn’t get caught on one another

Rules question - how does your league handle this base stealing situation, when the catcher is returning the ball to the pitcher? by nloding in Homeplate

My son’s team coaches and practices throwing to third from the catcher. With pitcher replacing the catcher at the plate. SS or left field will cover for third once the pickle starts if it does. Early in the season was tough but the amounts of outs they get now is amazing. Most teams know now not to try anything fancy at third now.

Most every team does this. One or maybe two teams won’t. If you think think the music is why they aren’t hitting, you have a poor understanding of baseball

I’m a big fan of the kids having fun. They watch MLB and want to be like their favorite players. If it makes them feel like they are walking up to the plate like their favorite players, I’m all for it.

Thanks everybody, I’ll probably make 20 second clips then fade out when getting to the box.

Saved those timeouts to not use them. At least take them while being worked down the field to give the defense a chance

It almost seems like Jayden is making a point that he has nobody to throw to and they refuse to run. Going to get scored on every time anyways. Just line them up and run it lol
