If you get wrinkles in them, you get blisters. It’s very important that they fit snugly and the snugger they fit, the better you are. “You want to get a pair of batting gloves that doesn’t have wrinkles, doesn’t wrinkle. “The first part we are going to talk about is batting gloves,’’ Gwynn says on the video.

Tony, of course, is no longer with us, but he is offering incredible advice in this video: “How to Improve Your Hitting with Baseball Pro Tony Gwynn.’’ Find it, watch it, have your kids watch it you will not be disappointed – again, AMBS is here to help. This may sound simple, and it is simple so simple that whenever Tony Gwynn, eight-time batting champ, gave a talk to young hitters, the first thing he would say is this, snug gloves, and I just double-checked this with a video Tony made years ago. The first thing to do is get batting gloves that fit snugly. This tells me that the metricians in charge are already scared of someone pulling a hammy – instead of working their way to being comfortable with sprinting to steal bases so you don’t pull a hammy in the process. One of those stolen bases came against the college team, so that doesn’t count. In the three games played, there were two stolen bases even though it is much easier to steal a base. 186 with runners in scoring position (8-for-43) on Friday and that is counting facing college pitchers for the Red Sox. In this age in which changes were made to help the hitters, teams hit a collective. The other way is not going to work anymore. But again, that is a good thing for teams that are paying attention. In the ultimate small sample size, baseball did not get off to a smooth start with the speed-up rules when it came to hitters on the first day these were put in place.

Here is a primer for teams and players on how to take advantage of the new rules.įollow some of these simple tips and your team will be better. The games will be faster, but they have to be better, that is the challenge. The clock (there was never a clock in major league baseball before this week), the bigger bases, the disengagement rules from the mound, and so forth and so on, including the banning of the shift. They are just some of the hires that have intrigued me and when I visit spring training I will be looking forward to talking baseball with baseball people instead of talking metrics with metrics people, who really have no clue what it is like to be in the box facing a major league pitcher or on the mound facing a hitter.Īnyone who has followed me knows that I have been saying the speed-up rules will be much more difficult on the hitters than the pitchers even though MLB tried to help the hitters with the changes. Those teams should post a sign in their offices that says: Baseball Spoken Here. Dusty Baker remains the key Astro and Buck Showalter plays that role with the Mets and now has more front office help in Beltran. The change may not occur overnight, but there will be change in these teams with Brian Sabean going back to the Yankees, Carlos Beltran returning to the Mets, Bruce Bochy managing the Rangers, and the Marlins hiring a slew of baseball knowledge in the likes of Terry Collins, Dave Wallace, Jim Riggleman, and Dan Radison. It’s time to go back to basics – and I think that is why some teams have smartly reached out to hire veteran baseball people who have seen it all and heard it all from past generations.
That’s the bad news but we are here for the good news at The Story. Four words tell you where the game is at this moment. Truer words have never been spoken about the game.
