Wednesday - August 29, 2012

Sway took Monday and Tuesday off due to an injury to his lead foot.  He was hit in the foot in the championship game in a really bad spot.  He worked hard today though despite being not 100%

Saturday & Sunday - August 25 & 26 Beach Bash

Sway had a huge weekend at the plate.  He caught well and also did great on the mound.  I was really proud that his hard work showed up this weekend.  Some of the adjustments we have been working on really helped!  I think he had 7 doubles and almost hit one out dead center field... 

We took second place in the tournament.  We lost to Central Florida Wolvarines who are a very good program.

Hitting Lesson with Pat Reibsame for 1 hour. 

Big things we have corrected and worked on are:

Back Knee staying inside of his ankle...  It has really changed his heel down process...  Due to this adjustment he is having very little problem getting his foot down in time for any speed pitching.  Saw 60Plus and was driving the hell out of it!  Really good adjustment and looks so smooth and athletic in his load and take away.  It also seems to resequence his hands and allows for true seperation of stride foot and hands and he is getting his heel down.

We are also working hard on his bottom hand...  He sometimes lets the lead arm elbow pop out instead of letting it point down in power position.  When he executes this his hands are so fast...  Good news is that he is only 9 and has been working really hard.  Fundamentally one of the best swings you will find...  Very proud of him and the effort that he has put in. 

OH YEA...  And for all you haters out there...  maybe you should spend less time hating and more time working with your own kids!  LOL...  You all are FUNNY and a complete JOKE...  You know who you are...  the GAP IN TALENT is just continuing to grow try to keep up... 

I be hearing the s*** you say through the grapevine
But jealousy is just love and hate at the same time
Yeah, it’s been that way from the beginning
I just been playing, I ain't even notice I was winning
