Favorite Games at Practice
Split the team into two teams line up one team at short the other at second. Take a ball bucket with a lid set it on home plate, then take another bucket and set it on top of the first. coach stands off to the side of home plate with buckets of balls and hits hard grounders to short then 2nd in...- bucket pinata

Outfielders
Pick off play first, or third, right fielder or left fielder to slow or not doing her job backing up the throw, ball gets by first baseman roll to the fence in foul territory that scores a run or more if there are base runners. not just a missed out, and that error goes to the infielder most...- bucket pinata

Outfielders
Fantastic Question, well since I don't believe the DNA that makes a elite outfielder makes a great infielder I would put the right fielder at short because she could very well have better quick lateral movement, and quite possibly a quicker release on the short throw. and If I could change the...- bucket pinata

Outfielders
There is not any warehouse. watch any pgf championship game an I guarantee top three will all have legit 2.6-2.7 speed and you want t guess where they will be on D. you guessed it, outfield.

Outfielders
Pretty much disagree with every point unless you're talking b and c level Ball. The only point I would make is at national level 95 % of infielders are not fast enough to be outfielders. You cant learn speed. you can work on jump and reading the ball but unless you're a 2.6 home to first you...- bucket pinata

Are Pitching Machines making bad hitters?
What makes bad hitters is coaches that don't know when to shut up, coaches who put zero effort into the mentality of stepping in the box and focusing on what you are going to do vs what you are not going to do.I have always used the machine and gotten great success. but not to teach mechanics...- bucket pinata

Best announcer lines from CWS, 2017 edition
Well I'm hoping this thread meant the whole series, a great saying that I will definitely use, not sure who said it. "Home runs are like boyfriends, as soon as you stop chasing them they start coming around"- bucket pinata

Bunting with Bases loaded and less than two outs
Hard to believe the coach called a squeeze without the batter knowing that pulling back is not a option. For it to work you have to actually have to practice it and the players need to know you put a bat on the ball no matter where its pitched, seen a batter golf one that bounced in front of the...- bucket pinata
