15yo Maddie

[Eric F]

BP session and work with @Mike-Coach-Q yesterday. I was absolutely blown away by her consistent power and clean contact.

(No duplicate swings in this video)

The base of the light pole in left field is at 220’. When Maddie was 8, I offered her a cash reward for the ridiculous goal of hitting the light pole on the fly. Even as she has developed into a hitter with 250’ power, I haven’t changed the reward offer. She hasn’t hit the pole yet, but she’s been pretty close a few times.

Maddie’s 16U TB team starts practices this coming week. She’s pretty excited to get back to playing ball.

Hopefully no low flying birds are near. They would be in serious danger. She's doing great Eric!

@Eric F and @Mike-Coach Q - I love her swing and intent to do damage! Also, @Mike-Coach Q your underhand BP is absolutely grooved. Nothing builds confidence in a hitter like some absolutely grooved BP that you can just mash!

Glad to see her getting back after it. Her swing looks more like Josh Donaldsons swing than Barry Bonds swing. Which is a good thing imo.

TY but yesterday I was a passenger and witness to the mashing of the softballs. That's all Eric pitching. I warned up well and felt great but I never came off the bench. My moms gonna call the coach when she gets home from happy hour.
All kidding aside Maddie crush every ball, even the mis hits carried 200

It looks like some time off did her some good.

Well then @Eric F - your BP is meat and I mean that as a sincere compliment. Makes me want to hit.

Thanks. I can get through about 3 buckets before my control starts fading hard. It matches up pretty well with Maddie’s endurance, too, so it works out pretty well.
