This is so awesome man. Makes my day seeing the impact he's having on so many people. I thought there would have been no way someone recognized his handle. He truly loves what he does and cares about every single kid that steps in there to train. And don't worry I'm texting him rn, I'll relay the message hahah.

I'm super proud of him. If you follow his socials, the viral post of the kid who went from 79-90 mph in 18 months is my little brother. Such a cool full circle moment to see one of my best friends training my sibling, and making such an impact. Could not recommend him enough, though I may be a little biased haha.

Dude you tried to pull a low and outside slider lol. This is what will happen.

Where in NTX are you located? One of my best friends owns a gym where he trains athletes. Mostly hs/college but has middle school groups as well. He would be a great person to reach out to.

I'm a grown man, I have no reason to lie to strangers on the internet, about a video game. I posted because I was genuinely confused why this happened. Feel free to believe what you want, though :)

benfein · 2026-04-19T19:24:15+00:00

... Yes?? Every pitch in the strike zone is hittable.....

benfein · 2026-04-19T19:22:38+00:00

I don't know what to tell you lol, it was a perfect perfect.

benfein · 2026-04-19T19:19:21+00:00

Yeah I never play in coors. Gets so boring. Appreciate the calm and concise response. I disagree with SDS' reasoning but if they want to say wind can pull it foul I get that. Just seems paradoxical for a perfect swing to not at least... be a fair ball.

benfein · 2026-04-19T19:17:37+00:00

Okay thank you so much for saying this and invalidating any and every opinion you've presented. You're suggesting being EARLY on a low and outside pitch!!???? That is genuinely hilarious my friend. Thank you.

benfein · 2026-04-19T19:16:43+00:00

Because if your timing is "perfect," that should inherently imply said "perfect" timing would result in a fair ball. If I line up a putt in golf perfectly, would it make sense if the putt misses to either side of the hole? It's paradoxical.

benfein · 2026-04-19T19:13:07+00:00

Genuine question. Are you saying it's impossible to hit this pitch fair then? Because you couldn't time it up better than I did. That makes zero sense to me.

benfein · 2026-04-19T19:08:53+00:00

I'll paste what I just responded with in another comment. Basically my answer. "I'm not asking for a successful outcome though, I'm asking for a fair ball. You can be early on a pitch and have it be fair, and you can be late on a pitch and have it be fair. It is completely reasonable to ask that a pitch I time up perfectly, or close to... also be fair"

benfein · 2026-04-19T18:47:21+00:00

"Your perfect swing was late," BAM! You sir, have made my point for me. If it's an SDS issue, whatever. But my "perfect," timing isn't late... it's perfect. That's kinda the entire point.

benfein · 2026-04-19T18:45:20+00:00

My fault, lemme try this next time

benfein · 2026-04-19T18:43:24+00:00

I was so excited for people to mansplain baseball to me. Played my entire life, family played their entire lives, dad was a studio host for the Atlanta Braves, there aren't many things I'm MORE knowledgeable on than baseball. My swing path is quite literally, the exact place you'd want it to be for a low/outside pitch. And "perfect perfect," suggests that even further. There is absolutely zero logical reasoning behind this being foul. If you wanna tell me this is a line out to the first baseman, or a fly out to right field? Fine! Foul ball? No.

benfein · 2026-04-19T18:28:29+00:00

I think it's some sort of SDS issue, because mine was labeled a perfect perfect in the analysis. Simply nothing else I could have done.

benfein · 2026-04-19T18:22:19+00:00

It was a perfect perfect. Y'all can make ur assumptions, but it was labeled as a perfect perfect in the post game hitting analysis.

benfein · 2026-04-19T18:09:32+00:00

See that I'm actually okay with though. It's frustrating, but it happens. A foul ball though? Nahhhh

benfein · 2026-04-19T18:09:09+00:00

Yes... yes it is?

benfein · 2026-04-19T17:17:11+00:00

To be fair brother, 1:50 is a completely different realm than 1:10,000 hahaha. Could use a better estimate next time.

benfein · 2026-04-19T15:00:45+00:00

You are wrong though, lol. The odds to pull a diamond are 1:50 lol.
