My Highschool baseball coach begged us to watch 20-30 minutes of college/professional baseball a night. I never understood it.
Reflecting on it now, I am deeply grateful I did as he asked. It helped me think the game & develop baseball IQ ahead of my age.
As I help coaching Highschool baseball now : The baseball IQ is seemingly getting worse for high schoolers as time goes on & the world becomes exceedingly more short form & instant gratification centric.
If you’re a parent and/or young baseball player I hope you understand how much understanding the intricacies of the game will play in your favor over the long haul.

@Shane00@tj20573098 When you argue that this wasn’t called a walk 10+ years ago you are showing your limited knowledge. I’m not arguing with you if it is a walk or not but it would have been called WAY MORE TIMES THAN NOT and therefore was not deemed a viable move for previous generations.
The "I just learned this way to late" online hitting coach is wild. It's what makes everyone think that there is a "cheat code". In all honesty, you still wouldn't be a good hitter. Hitters hit! They find a way. Would your swing look better? Maybe. It doesn't mean you would hit.
Parents of baseball/softball players; if your child is 10 years old or younger, stop paying for lessons and get in the yard and play with your kids. Their natural athletic ability will develop and you guys can have quality time if you don’t expect them to be major leaguers
@JoelBryantHSOT You are probably in the know more than me, but was there a multiplier option in place for charters? I don’t remember there being one. I know we voted out success factor and wealth factor but all ADM’s just aren’t apples to apples.
Queen's Grant is well on its way to winning the 2A boys basketball state championship.
A couple of things to point out: (1) this is Queen's Grant's 38 game of this season and Warren County's 24th. (2) Queen's Grant beat West Charlotte this season. West Charlotte just won the 8A state championship last night. highschoolot.com/story/live-blo…
