You don't even have to be an athlete to hustle!

So last night I participated as a pitcher in a game of baseball. I was pretty much steady pitcher for both teams ages (14 & 13). I must admit I had alot of fun, but I could not get over the way that the players on both teams walked on and off the field, to and from their positions. As the title of this states "You Don't even have to be an athlete to hustle!" My message to the youth players is this...if you don't want to be there stay home, but if you do want to be there, act like you can't wait to get to your position or back into the dugout to hit. Coaches, scouts, fans, and parents all notice hustle, and who knows, if you start now, maybe it will catch on with your teamates before the season is out.

Practicing Good Baseball Habits

This is the first of many to come. So since I just set this up I am going to explore and custonize before I start getting into the good baseball discussion.
