@3leftsbaseball I agree but also as we have seen with abs umpires are human and make mistakes a lot. So if you thought it was a ball that might be correct but you have to live with the consequences wrong or right.

The Sound of a Losing Culture. I hear it in the dugout during games. A player strikes out looking on a borderline pitch. He walks back to the bench tosses his bat and starts the script: "Blue has a flight to catch," or "The sun was right in my eyes." The coach nods just to stop the noise. The teammates shrug because they do it too. But the standard of the program just dropped another inch. You think you’re just "venting." Everyone else sees a player who is too soft to own his failure. The 3 Lefts Mental Audit: • The Excuse Subsidy: Every time you blame the umpire, the sun, or the mound you are paying a tax on your own development. If it’s someone else’s fault you don't have to fix anything. And if you don't fix anything you stay exactly where you are Average. • The "Main Character" Delusion: The sun is hitting the pitcher’s eyes too. The umpire is missing calls for both sides. The game isn't out to get you it just doesn't care about you. Stop acting like the world is conspiring against your batting average. • The Respect Gap: You want your teammates to trust you in the 7th inning. Then stop acting like a victim in the 2nd. Real leaders don't look for someone to blame they look for a way to adjust. The game doesn't reward the player with the best reason It rewards the player who makes the most adjustments. If you want to be treated like an elite ballplayer, start acting like one when things go wrong. High-level players don't have bad luck they have short memories and a plan for the next pitch. Average players want the world to be fair. Ballplayers realize the dirt is dirty and they keep digging anyway. Stop auditioning for the victim role. Nobody is buying tickets to that show. #3LeftsBaseball #BaseballIQ

@LakersCanes305 It’s the pitching that’s the question lol

Best hitting Canes team I’ve seen in years. The test comes next weekend vs the Gators

Put yourself in the shoes of an American-hating liberal for just one second. You’re furious at the system. You’re convinced the country is rotten to the core. You’ve got the passport, the savings, the righteous fury. So… Where do you go? Seriously, name the place. Which nation out there is handing out more freedom, more opportunity, more room to speak your mind, even when your mind is dead-set on trashing the place that gave you it all? Europe? Cute accents, sure, but good luck starting a business paying 60% taxes so the government can decide what’s best for you. Canada? Don't make me laugh. Australia? Beautiful beaches, until you remember they’ll confiscate your guns and fine you for thinking wrong on social media. The places that actually rival us in size and resources tend to have issues like, oh I don’t know, jailing dissidents and disappearing journalists. No one is trying to cross the border into Canada. No one is rushing to live in Italy or Denmark. Not a single person wants to live in Somalia. Not even the Somalis. My point is nowhere else comes close to the United States of America. (damn that gave me goosebumps) Not even on their best day. We’re not perfect, never claimed we were. We’ve got problems stacked higher than a Manhattan skyline. Most of them involve the same people who hate it here. But name another country that lets you hate it out loud, organize against it, protest in its streets, sue its government, run for office to fix it, and still sleep under the best roof on planet Earth. Name one that turned a wild frontier into the world’s innovation engine in a couple centuries. Name one whose culture conquered the globe without firing a shot. Blue jeans, rock ’n’ roll, Hollywood blockbusters, iPhones, and yes, even our fast food as unhealthy as it is. We invented the weekend barbecue, the Super Bowl, the road trip across deserts and mountains and beaches that make the rest of the world’s postcards look amateur. We’ve got Yellowstone, Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, the Golden Gate Bridge, and natural wonders that leave foreigners speechless. We put rockets into space while half the planet was still figuring out indoor plumbing. And our sports? Puhhhh-lease. The rest of the world plays “football” for 90 minutes and calls a 1-0 snoozefest exciting. We gave you March Madness, overtime thrillers, seventh-game World Series walk-offs, and fourth-quarter comebacks that turn grown men into crying newborns. Good luck beating us at our own games, we literally invented most of them. People risk their lives on rafts, tunnels, and desert treks to get here. Not to Sweden. Not to Japan. Here. Even the ones who show up waving the flag of the country they just fled still know, deep down, this is the last best shot. So yeah, keep telling me how much you hate it. I’ll keep grinning, because your refusal to leave is the loudest “America rules” you’ll ever shout. We’re loud, messy, flawed, and absolutely unbeatable. God bless this ridiculous, beautiful, freedom-drunk nation. There’s nowhere else I’d rather be.

It's mind blowing that Miami has the two best defensive ends in college football and every offensive line in America blocked them perfectly without holding.

@jerrett_ray @KentMurphy I was in right field stands and I said to my wife why is jt snow not getting pinch run for!!!

@KentMurphy JT Snow why are you so fckn slow bro

One of the craziest endings to a postseason series to ever 😱

@lookingglass401 @CracraftFan That’s what I tell people he was never the same

@CracraftFan Absolute seed. The hip injury killed him.

Tua going from hitting this throw as a TRUE FRESHMAN to not being able to beat good teams in the NFL is the most Miami Dolphins thing possible

Luke Heminger (‘29, FL) ⬇️ LHP showed tons of poise and patience at the dish. Mature swing for his age group, has a “yes,yes,yes” mentality and takes pitches with intent. Wide base with a timed toe-tap and shifts his weight well into the baseball. Creates good arm extension and has a slight up hill bat path 1B to RF with 2RBI’s #PBOpen | @OrlandoScorps 👤 play.ps-baseball.com/player-profile…

Zion Jones (‘29, FL) ⬇️ Short, compact swing with quick hands and a straight bat path. Coming up clutch with 2 solid barrels and 3 RBI’s for his team. #PBOpen | @OrlandoScorps 👤 play.ps-baseball.com/player-profile…

Reid Alberti (‘29, FL) ⬇️ Athletic RHP, controlled opposition in a CG shutout. Did a great job of controlling the game. Releases ball from a 3/4 arm slot and mixed his pitches around the strike zone all game. 4.0 IP | 0 ER | 5 K’s | 2 H | 2 BB #PBOpen | @OrlandoScorps

@BaseballDoesnt We made it to final game and I legit felt bad for some of those games. My son was the smallest on our team and the biggest for other teams lol

Cooperstown, where every American boy dreams go to die

@TaylorLewan77 Drives me crazy

It’s the middle of 2025, and people still jump up the moment the plane reaches the gate, as if standing sooner will somehow get them off faster.

@MattyCleve5 I think it’s should be best of 3 all the way to the end

PLEASE TAKE 3-4 MINUTES TO READ THIS.. Especially if you love HS Sports, particularly HS Baseball in the State of Florida. In a world where most people just complain and take no action, Baseball coaches went to work.. Here’s how it turned out. Let me know your thoughts.

@MiamiSportsHQ @MiamiHurricanes @LockedOnCanes @BarstoolUMiami 1,3,5 all other answers are incorrect

Which three logos are you choosing? @MiamiHurricanes

@NorCalU1 It’s simple, pay them more but hold them accountable so parents don’t lose their crap for not even trying to do a good job. $150 a game split between two umps.

Epidemic going on in Baseball. Serious shortage on umps. Avg age way over 50- no new guys coming up. Saw 2 games in Fresno/Clovis Fri at 330 and 630 diff fields. Same guys. Anything below Var is now 1 man crew. This is everywhere. Would love to hear thoughts on why.

@dirtyyybird Unless they put money in nil that tuition cost is a game changer until you have 35 full scholarships

The University of Miami should NEVER be bad in Baseball.

@ItsAUThingBlog @CanesBaseball 8 kids from outside of Florida for UF 11.5 scholarships on $8k vs $80k it’s not the same playing field. Only Vanderbilt has invested in baseball to be competitive with the state schools

Kevin O’Sullivan is now 43-18 lifetime against @CanesBaseball and Florida just took a 136-135 series lead against Miami; which happens when you lose 43 of the last 61 games in this era of the rivalry. What a fucking embarrassment.

Kyle Hopper (25 FL) w/ 7Ks thru 4IP thus far. Living upper-80s T89 w/ significant projection remaining. S/M SL in the upper-70s is a lethal offering. #JU commit. #PGShowdown @Florida_PG @TFABaseball_
