Floyds Knobs Post 42 Baseball

Players: When your playing career is over, you won’t be remembered for the stats on the back of your baseball card. Rather, you will be remembered as the guy in the picture on the front, and the impact you had on others. #USABFirstPitch 📝: bit.ly/2N0pY8o

Outfielder Stevie Wilkerson is the first position player to ever record a save. He only needed 14 pitches to do it and NONE of them were over 60 mph 🤯

"Why is baseball cool?" The Kid's response is worth a listen.

HS Athletes: When college coaches are deciding scholarship offers, when 2 athletes talents are equal, character and grades are normally tiebreakers. Work on these!

There are now 81 former American Legion Baseball players enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame with former American Legion players Harold Baines, Roy Halladay, Mike Mussina and Lee Smith enshrined alongside Edgar Martinez and Mariano Rivera. legion.org/baseball/24644…

College coaches aren’t looking at the score. They’re looking at your athleticism, speed, attitude under pressure, effort, communication, teammate skills, and your reaction after mistakes; all things YOU can control by training and having a great attitude and grit :)

The game of baseball is made up of many little things. If we do all the little things right, then we'll never have a big thing to worry about. – Cal Ripken, Sr.
