We always talk about “The Grind” in baseball and taking fifty to a hundred hacks off the tee every day plus other practice swings so you can be solid in three or four game At Bats. I’m feeling it today – obviously.
Two nights ago I flew from Dallas/Fort Worth to Atlanta so I could get up early and drive to Erskine College’s baseball camp. Last night we drove back to Atlanta and got on a plane to Los Angeles for a Play To Win Showcase in a few hours. Tonight I am headed back to Dallas because I have a post Calculus math test to take at my school, the Townview School of Science and Engineering.
