What we have done is started sending cards to player in a self addressed stamped envelope (SASE). To date we have collected over signed 100 cards this way. Many from all-stars like Mike Mussina, Andrew Jones, Brad Lidge, Fernando Valenzuela and Mark Buerhle. Younger players and retired players are more likely to sign than many of the current big names. Do not expect anything back from Alex Rodriguez or Derek Jeter. Not only is it great fun for my son and I to collect these, they also make great presents and gifts. How many times has you child been given a game for their birthday that they never get into or play just once? A signed baseball card is a unique item. Most kids are not going to see many of these. One of my sons friends is a huge Boston Red Sox fan. He gets that from his dad. Early in the 2007 season, we received two signed cards back from Dustin Pedroia. We gave one of them to my sons friend as a birthday present. At the end of the 2007 season, Dustin was named the AL rooki …

This is not the time or place to be working on mechanics. It’s already hard enough for hitters to make the necessary adjustments needed to what the pitcher is throwing them without their head swimming with what every coach(and parent sometimes not even their own parent) within ear shot telling them what to do or not to do when in the box and when they swing. It’s no wonder so many young hitters struggle not only with their swing, but even more tragically in most cases their confidence. The problem is that most of the time they are hearing a variety of different cues: “swing down”, “keep your elbow up”, “don’t dip your back shoulder”, “keep your head down”, “you’re pulling your head out”, “stay tall”, “stay back”, “swing level”, “quit doing (this)”, quit doing (that), (insert one you’ve heard or said here); …and to add confusion to confidence destruction, some of the things they hear are physically contrary to each other even to actual physics itself. Have you ever tried to “stay bac …

Before a parent signs a up a child to participate in a youth sports activity, the parent must answer a couple of questions about the child’s role in the activity as well as his own A. Make sure your child is ready for Youth Sports. Obviously, this is the most fundamental element of whether you and your child enjoy the youth sports experience. Many children play sports simply because their parents want them to play. Children WANT to please their parents, so naturally they will usually do what their parents wish whether they want to or not. Ask yourself: 1.”Does my child even WANT to play an organized sport?” 2. Is he/she physically/mentally ready for an organized sport? If the answer to either of these questions is no, it is better to wait until next year, simply because of the level of interest and safety concerns. B. Assuming your child is ready and wants to play, what must you, as a parent do to help get them ready to play? Long before the first practice, spend some time in prepara …

Maybe I’m more aware of all of the different terms because it’s a game I’m most familiar with, or maybe there is just an extraordinary amount of verbage to learn. Nevertheless, I’d like to discuss a couple important hitting terms that should be understood as you’re working on your various baseball drills. The difference between bat lag and bat drag are immense. And because of the similar sound, they ofter get mixed up. Bad mistake. Let me help explain them both by developing a definition for each. Bat Lag: Bat lag is what all good hitters look to develop while hitting a baseball. As the hands move into the hitting zone it’s important to throw the knob of the bat at the baseball. You may be familiar with that concept as it’s a common phrase (throwing the knob). Doing this produces a result of the hands leading the barrel of the bat which creates whip and bat speed in the baseball swing. When looking at a picture of a hitter nearing the contact position, look for the hands to be in fron …

Almost every competitive traveling team uses either a rolled or shaved bat. Since early after the release of composite bats it was determined that they get better and perform at a higher level as they get broken in. A typical bat takes 300-500 hits to start to loosen up and perform at it’s highest level. Once this was determined some people began using bench vices to break their bat in quicker. This was a bad way to compress a bat and people found themselves breaking bats by over compressing them. It was then that the bat roller was designed. It is a much better way of compressing your bat and breaking it in quicker. After a typical roll you’ll bat will perform like one that has 300-500 hits on it and you don’t have to spend hours of batting practice. Perform Increases Are Incredible The typical performance increases range from 30-50 of additional distance after having your bat rolled or shaved. Batted speed will increase to over 110mph vs. the designed performance level of either 98m …

The following batting tips can help anyone become a better hitter. Select a bat you can handle. If the bat is too light you get no power. If the bat is to heavy you will not get around on the pitch. Learn the strike zone. Don’t swing at bad pitches. It’s a battle. More of a mental game with the pitcher. Relax. He has to pitch too you and the pitcher knows it takes “3″ strikes! Keep your front shoulder and chin tucked in, flex your knees and keep your hands back around your back shoulder. Turn your head so that both eyes are on the pitcher. Don’t look around your nose. Stay on the balls of your feet. If you are back on you heels that extra split second will affect the swing. Keep your head still. Get the bat started, move your hands back and forth slightly as the pitcher starts the wind up. If you like the pitch, go ahead and hit it. If doesn’t look good, then hold up. Take a short step and stride. A long stride will only throw you off balance and slightly delay your swing. Stay on top …

Honus Wagner T206 - The most well-known rookie card in the baseball card collecting community, the Honus Wagner is generally treated as a work of art. It was included in the T206 set between 1909 and 1911 by the American Tobacco Company. Due to a dispute with the American Tobacco Company, between 50 and 200 cards were released to the public. The reasons behind the dispute continue to be questioned - whether Wagner didn’t want his likeness included in packages of cigarettes or whether he wanted additional compensation. Whatever the reason, this limited availability made the T206 Honus Wagner the first valuable baseball card. Today, the card remains both an investment and a symbol of stature, as many famous individuals have bought or sold the card. 1914 Baltimore Sun Babe Ruth - printed in 1914 by the Baltimore Sun newspaper, the Babe Ruth rookie card has become the second-most valuable baseball card in the hobby. This 1914 set included Ruth with his Baltimore Orioles teammates, as well …
