Above The Shoulders

Slow = fast as an infielders. Infielders have to play under control, quiet feet, quiet hands, have body control. The best infielders never looked rushed, they have great rhythm and timing. Playing infield should be played at “quick pace” but quick doesn’t mean out of control.

Prep Step Checklist:
✅ Land on time
✅ Good rhythm and body control
✅ Athletic position
✅ Land as the ball crosses the plate
✅ Glove in a quarter-turn position
✅ Repeatable every pitch

Errors happen because infielders don’t watch the ball into their glove. Start training your eyes and I guarantee errors will go down. Watch the ball all the way into your glove. You can’t catch what you don’t see.

I get this question so often:

“Why does my son look so good in practice but struggle in games?”

Because we’ve made playing the infield way more complicated than it needs to be.

We’re doing drills that look good on social media but don’t actually translate to the game. Then when the ball is hit in a real game, the player has too many thoughts running through his head.

Practice needs to look and feel like the game. Game-speed reps. Real reads. Real hops. Real decisions.

Let’s stop overcomplicating the infield and make it simple again.

Everyone has a version of you living in their head and most of them are wrong.

One person remembers who you were at 16, while another remembers you at 25. Some met you during your worst season. Others only know you through a series of posts.

Different angles. Different moments. Different assumptions.

But none of them know the full picture. They only know the version of you that existed in the frame they happened to catch.
