Here is a few of my thoughts & 'preachings.'
- Take Two and Hit to Right.
- Always Castle or Out House Swing.
- On 6-7-7-9 on 0-2 Go up & In, then low & away.
- For 1-5 on 0-2, go low & away, then Up & In.
- Never ever look at a Third strike.
- Indecisiveness is a sign of weakness.
- Walks are like kissing your sister.
- No when ever stole 1b. Hack at it.
- What ever you hear in the Dugout, Stays
in the Dugout.
- If you eat something in the dugout
during the game, make sure Coach get's
a taste.
- Set up for the Double play, for the win.
- You can pick you own nose in the dugout.
- Know when to Hold em.
- 1st and 3rd one out, Keep the run from scoring
and get and out somewhere.
- Bases loaded, it's ok to wind up, all else
go from stretch.
- 1/3 will like you. 1/3 don't know you.
The trick is keeping the 1/3 that
don't know you, hanging out with the
1/3 that like you.
- 3-0 count. You get three green lights.
The first one is yours, the 2nd one we
are even, the last one is mine.
- Pitch Fast, Throw strikes
- Leave the Hit & Run for the weaker hitters.
- Teach 'em how to Learn to Love the Game,
and they teach themselves.
- Shake hands when you lose, (unless you
just can't turn the cheek...then pray
for forgiveness at Sat. mass.)
- Let's play two today.
- If your kid plays SS and bats 3rd and
has no game, don't expect RESPECT.
- Listen kid, your only as good as your
last AB.
- Clean your shoes for practice, Shine
your shoes for games.
- Drive the Ball from the Bench, to
the hole, to the On-Deck Circle makes
getting a base hit when in the box
a whole lot easier.
- Pop the Speed Merchants up.
- You want them to swing at the change-up.
- You never know whose watching, play hard
- Run everything out.
- Swing a bat as much as you floss your teeth,
Great Hitters have great smiles.
- Respect and Protect all
baserunners.
- Say Thank-you to the Coaches after every
practice and game
- Always tell one of the coaches if your
are sick, hurt, unable to play, or you
to a toothache, headache, your dog died.
- Get a Good Pitch to Hit.
- Throw 1st pitch strikes.
- First man on, first pitch over.
- Get your self dirty, dive on picks,
slide at Base.
- Learn how to take the collar off your
in your last AB.
- It's your career kid, not mine.
- You will have the opportunity to contribute
to winning the ball game, every game.
- Practice makes permanent.
- There is always going to be something
that somebody is good at.
- Don't practice your mistakes.
- Say thanks, when your feet hit the floor
in the morning.
- Buy a decent glove, Pound Foolish, Penny Wise.
- Wear a decent uniform to practice,
it's a feel good.
- It's a priviledge to play baseball everyday.
- Get up, Shower, Shave, Get dressed, and
go to Ball Park everyday.
- Take your game to the park, Play it There,
Then leave it. Pick it up tommorrow.
- Pick up and Acorn everyday.
- And the last for Roger, Learn to Become a
Good Father,Good Husband, & Good Christian
everyday.
