Baseball positions

I have played baseball ever since I was a young kid, but somehow, at seventeen I still had numerous struggles with it. You would think after my grandpa being drafted to the Pittsburgh Pirates, a Major League baseball team, and my dad getting a full ride to the University of Denver their skill would have rubbed off on me, but you would be wrong. I wasn't terrible, I could hit a 90 mile per hour fastball and I could, for the most part, field a ground ball. However, I was definitely not about to be…

If you love baseball this is the perfect story for you. This is about baseball. This is a different story because everything is true. Everything happened We are a team of eleven. All 12 or 13 years old. We at first when we first met we were all just getting to know each other by asking ‘What school do you go to’ and ‘What's your name’. But after about the first few practices we were talking to each other like we’ve known each other all our lives. We a had…

is Important in Educational Athletics When I first started playing baseball at the age of six years old my coach asked us the same question before and after every game and practice. He would say “What’s the first rule of baseball?” To which we would all reply, “Have Fun!” He would then ask, “What’s the last rule of baseball?” To which we would also reply, “Have fun!” Although this may sound like a childish thing that a 6U baseball team would say, he continued this until 8U, which was my last…

A hobby that I really enjoy is playing sports. I specifically love baseball, but their are many traits to become a good baseball player. In the next couple paragraphs I will explain the traits you need, to become a baseball player. To be a baseball player, you will first need to have a work ethic. In baseball, you must work hard in and out of a game. If you have a good work ethic you will become a better player. The reason why you need a work ethic is because you should practice everyday even…

It was a scorching summer afternoon around three o’ clock PM at J.D Redd Park. I was anxiously waiting in third base for the batter to approach the plate and smack the yarn covered ball just enough for me to make it to the home plate. As the sun hits my face I see the pitcher retract his right arm getting ready to throw it. As I see the ball leave the pitcher’s hand, I breathed in the humid air, making preparations to sprint as fast as I could and make it to the home plate. Before I could even…

I walked up to the home plate ; Mr.jaan pitched the ball and I was thinking just do it. I was thinking so hard in fact that I got one strike for doing so. Next Mr.jaan got a the ball and made it bounce so he said it was a ball .On the third roll I kicked so high and long that Oskar could catch it but it slip out of his hands and then I started to run as fast as lighting or people just call me the the Jogging Cow. While I was running the only thing I can think of was run but the problem was…

"Out" called the ump. Everyone scared to death we hear the score. 5-4 visitors, 2 outs, top of the seventh. Our whole team jumps to the fence when Daniel Messe gets to the batter's box. "Hopefully Danny doesn't get striked out" the team says. "Strike 1" the ump calls."Strike 2" he calls. Our team roars with a scared feeling in our guts. If Danny gets out we will lose the game and be eliminated from the playoffs I think to myself. 1,2,3 balls the ump calls. Our whole team rises with fear.…

behind third base with an additional player at first base. One at a time they are to field a ball that is either thrown to them or hit by a batter. Upon successful receipt of the ball, they are to throw to first base, then run over to the shortstop position. The drill is repeated for shortstop, second base, and a spot halfway between first and second where the hit is a slow roller towards first. For the slow roller, players are to charge out and field the ball in front of first base, then throw…

After the game, Jessica’s dad ran over to the girls and congratulated them with hugs and high fives. “Awesome game girls, let's sit in the shade and get some fluids.” Amanda and Jessica followed him to a shady spot near the tree and stripped off their socks and shoes. They knew better than to run around in the sun and heat when they had three more games ahead of them, and they definitely knew that they shouldn’t argue with their coach. Their hour break was flew by; the girls lounged in the shade…
