YBE 145: Train Like A Big League First Baseman

The Youth Baseball Edge Podcast with Rob Tong: Coaching | Drills | Strategy

If catchers wear the "tools of ignorance", then first basemen play the "position of neglect" because many youth coaches don't teach much to their first basemen even though it is a highly important position. Perry Hill, the first base coach and infield coach for the Seattle Mariners, breaks down how you can properly train your first basemen. This is part 1 of a two-part interview.

Plus Rob answers the Question of the Week about how to help a kid who's hitting grounders in games but fly balls in practices.
