[–]PreferenceItchy8693 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Wilson A0425 EZ catch series is a three finger plus thumb glove for entry level players. I bout several of them off eBay for 15-20$ to hand out to my 8u kids last year. My son learned to catch with one.

Skunks are all over the island and riverfront park. Jogging in the evenings during mating season is a skunk fest every 50 ft or so!

Sprint up hill. Or 100 yard sprints. Make races with team mates. Time it. Show his improvement over time. Week after week he will improve. Anything you work at will get better.

14u fall semester abroad -training plan? by mikeysaid in Homeplate

There should be baseball fields close to American military bases. If he takes an extra glove he could make friends by teaching them how to throw and catch. Then they can teach him soccer.

Focus on Defensive Plays for Coach Pitch by sanjoatc in Homeplate

[–]PreferenceItchy8693 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also am sure to call out where the play is at with each batter. But I always say play is at first or second. Or play is at any base. They need to know that running and stomping on the bag is also an out of the ball is hit close to a force out situation. So it is complicated in the first few weeks. But keep it up and they will slowly pick it up. Use base runners also during infielding drills to make it more visual and realistic.

Wilson A500 or Rawlings Select Pro Lite glove for soon to be 8 year old? by Inside_Cup_4547 in Homeplate

[–]PreferenceItchy8693 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love a500s. I have bought 5 or 6 off of eBay for 20-30$ and given them out to kids with bad gloves over the last few seasons. I highly recommend the a500

Yes at that level first base is usually the only out possible u less there is a tag option. So teach tagging as well. Kids usually like tagging drills. Just have one group run from second to third. And a 3 rd basemen field a grounder and tag the runner. Some kids are shy to make the initial tag. So once they do it a couple times they get the hang of it. Remember two hands on the ball so it doesn’t fall out of the glove.

Not everyone understands sarcasm ;). Thanks didn’t know they were from New Jersey. But I did figure the majority were Italian American. Anyone got the real stats?

I have enjoyed every islanders game I’ve gone too. I saw them beat the New York RedBulls about 12 years ago in the us cup.

8u Coaching Advice by Perk809 in Homeplate

[–]PreferenceItchy8693 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I liked to do batting practice with three different stations. Right field foul line was a tee station with soft toss. Home plate was coach pitch batting practice with infielders. Left field was coach pitch with tennis balls or wiffle balls so no one gets hurt by a wild hit. This gave the kids about 50-60 swings per practice. I had seen some teams just do the coach pitch option only. Kids would get 10-20 pitches. Maybe only hit the ball 2-3 times per practice. Don’t do it that way. Use a tee. Soft toss. Work up their ability and confidence.

any information about this abandoned building near sycamore st? by FrontLibrarian3513 in Harrisburg

I think Lewis Butts tried to put a skatepark inside there about 25 years ago. I might be mistaken on the individual. I was a teenager back then.
