0-4 NOT A SLUMP! Few bad games NOT A SLUMP! Hitting it hard-not getting hits NOT A SLUMP! That's called BASEBALL!!! EVERYONE Gets out! EVERYONE Sucks sometimes! EVERYONE Goes 0fer! Embrace the ups & downs of hitting or get mentally dominated by the game you love! #BaseballTruth

Ballplayers: You pout?! -You’re mentally defeated -You’re a horrible teammate -You’re not competing -You’re giving opponents confidence -You’re embarrassing yourself Showing emotional, pouty body language is one of the WEAKEST things you can do on the ball field! #BaseballTruth

If parents stopped consuming so much time competing WITH each other, maybe there would be more time to teach the players how to compete FOR each other! Be excited for other’s successes, stop the jealousy, stop the gossip & drama b/c your kids are learning from you! #BaseballTruth

Championship teams that play at a higher level MUST HAVE PLAYER ACCOUNTABILITY, NOT JUST COACH ACCOUNTABILITY!! Players must: -Want structure & discipline -Show up early & stay late -Not accept laziness & bad attitudes -Challenge each other -Accept roles selflessly #BaseballTruth
