    Title: Trouble on the T-Ball Team (Lexile® measure: 190L) Author: Eve Bunting ISBN: 9780395660607 Description: Linda feels left out as the only one on her first-grade T-ball team who hasn’t lost a tooth. Use ordinal numbers first through tenth (Quantile® measure: 200Q) After reading the book with your child, use baseball as a way to discuss order. Use the baseball field to show first, second, and third bases. Discuss how many teeth your child has lost and try to recall which tooth was first, second, third, etc. If your child has not lost any teeth, have your child guess which tooth will be lost first, second, third, and so on. Discuss other things your child does in a specific order. What is the first thing your child does in the morning? What is second? What is third? What is the first thing your child does at school? What is the order of your child’s classes? Which comes first, math class or recess? Other baseball terms can be useful for discussing order. The batting lineup and the sequence of innings can both be used to discuss ordinal numbers. The leadoff hitter is the batter who comes to bat first in each inning. The cleanup hitter in the lineup is the fourth batter. The last batter in the lineup is the ninth batter. There are nine innings in a baseball game. During the seventh inning, there is a break called the seventh inning stretch. .

  • Baseball Cutoff and Backup Responsibilities - Pitchers
    Baseball Cutoff and Backup Responsibilities - Pitchers The ability to fulfill baseball cutoff and backup responsibilities is what separates the good teams from the bad ones, the great teams from the good ones. Very few execute properly. Watch a typical youth baseball game when the ball gets hit into the outfield, and it’s a free-for-all. A scramble. Infielders look around in confusion. Most stand around and do very little. Young baseball players need to understand a very simple concept: No matter what the play, you always have a responsibility! If you aren’t moving — barring very few exceptions — you are likely doing something wrong. Cutoff and backup responsibilities are teamwork in action. Nine players moving at the same time for advancing the team. Here is a guide that covers 15 primary scenarios (five different hit types to each of the outfield positions). While this is oversimplified, it’s important that we don’t get bogged down in the details. There are always exceptions. There are always gray areas. There are always crazy plays you don’t expect. Sometimes a throw never makes it to a base, and instead stops at a cutoff man. We don’t need to create a chart that covers every cutoff and backup scenario imaginable. The goal is not for the kids to memorize these responsibilities. The goal is for them to reach that lightbulb moment when they understand why they need to be in a location at a particular time. Plays happen very quickly. Weird things happen. What we don’t want is for players to be going through their memory banks as the play is unfolding, trying to remember where a chart told them to play.

  • Cincinnati Reds' Top Prospects Can Be Broken Down Into Two Groups: Outfielders and Pitchers
    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings January 14, 2015 CINCINNATI ENQUIRER Aroldis Chapman donation propels MSJ locker room renovation By Shannon Russell / Cincinnati Enquirer / [email protected] There's nothing like having an updated home locker room, and a donation by Reds pitcher Aroldis Chapman ensured just that for Mount St. Joseph's men's volleyball team. The three-month project features 21 custom wood lockers and new flooring. More from MSJ: "This project absolutely could not have been completed without Mr. Chapman's generosity,'' coach Ryan Lengerich said. "He has ties to this program and believes in its mission and commitment to winning on the court, in the classroom and in the community. We are forever grateful and proud to have him as a friend to the program." The Mount building and grounds staff gutted the locker room in October, including removing small metal lockers and a privacy wall, which significantly increased the usable space in the locker room. New ceiling, trim and wall paint was followed by new flooring and custom lockers from JR Customs Unlimited in Hamilton. The locker room is a special place where the athletes celebrate the wins and pick each other up in defeat," Lengerich said. "These student-athletes deserve this locker room. They never asked for it, they only worked hard each day and were thankful for what they had. They are a humble group, and there is no doubt they will treat this locker room with respect and enjoy it." The men's volleyball locker room is provided by the university for use solely by the team.

  • Optimizing Your Lineup by the Book by Sky Kalkman Updated Oct 9, 2012, 12:08Pm EDT
    BEYOND THE BOX SCORE SABERMETRIC PRIMERS THE VERY BEST OF BEYOND THE BOX SCORE 47 Optimizing Your Lineup By The Book By Sky Kalkman Updated Oct 9, 2012, 12:08pm EDT Listen to this article Elsa - Getty Images Bumping this amazing and still-relevant piece by my predecessor/friend/mentor, Sky Kalkman, for the 2012 post-season. It's a great reminder about basic lineup optimization, that it's overrated anyway, and the three and eight holes aren't exactly what you think. I hope you're enjoying it now as much as I did when I first read it. -jbopp As teams begin to pare down their rosters towards the magical 25 number, spring training conversation will shift to debating each team's ideal batting order. Because we care, BtB would like to remind everyone that lineups are pretty overrated. Believe it or not, the difference between an optimized lineup and a typical, mildly foolish one you'll see MLB teams use is only about one win over 162 games. It's obviously worth getting right, but not any more than realizing Troy Percival shouldn't be your closer or Joba Chamberlain belongs in the rotation. That being said, in order to put the best lineup together possible, there are some tips to follow, as Tom Tango, Mitchel Lichtman, and Andy Dolphin showed via extensive research in their book, The Book. By lineup position... Lead-Off The old-school book says to put a speedy guy up top. Power isn't important, and OBP is nice, but comes second to speed.

  • Ripken Baseball Camps and Clinics
    Basic Fundamentals of Outfield Play Outfield play, especially at the youth levels, often gets overlooked. Even though the outfielder is not directly involved in the majority of plays, coaches need to stress the importance of the position. An outfielder has to be able to maintain concentration throughout the game, because there may only be one or two hit balls that come directly to that player during the course of the contest. Those plays could be the most important ones. There also are many little things an outfielder can do -- backing up throws and other outfielders, cutting off balls and keeping runners from taking extra bases, and throwing to the proper cutoffs and bases – that don’t show up in a scorebook, but can really help a team play at a high level. Straightaway Positioning All outfielders – all fielders for that matter – must understand the concept of straightaway positioning. For an outfielder, the best way to determine straightaway positioning is to reference the bases. By drawing an imaginary line from first base through second base and into left field, the left fielder can determine where straightaway left actually is. The right fielder can do the same by drawing an imaginary line from third base through second base and into the outfield. The center fielder can simply use home plate and second base in a similar fashion. Of course, the actual depth that determines where straightaway is varies from age group to age group. Outfielders will shift their positioning throughout the game depending on the situation, the pitcher and the batter. But, especially at the younger ages, an outfielder who plays too close to the line or too close to another fielder can 1 create a huge advantage for opposing hitters.

  • 10 Greatest Extra Inning Wins in Eaton Baseball Postseason History
    10 Greatest Extra Inning Wins in Eaton Baseball Postseason History Greatest Extra Inning Win in History 2001 State Championship At All‐City Stadium in Denver May 19, 2001 Eaton Fightin’ Reds (22‐2) La Junta Tigers (21‐4) Ayers Starting Pitchers Thompson Souther Pitchers of Record Hill Background To have a game known at the nation’s winningest baseball program simply as “The Game” would require epic feats of truly legendary status. This was that game – the 2001 State Title Game. After battling through 7 innings in which each team scored only two runs – with Eaton scoring the tying run in the top of the 7th inning with two outs and two strikes on the batter – the Reds enter the 8th inning with starter Craig Ayers still on the mound, as too was La Junta starter and future 5th round Major League Baseball draft pick Sean Thompson. Extra Inning Summary Ayers had thrown a great game up to that point, now he was prepared to make it a legendary performance. Every pitch from here on out held the Reds’ State Championship hopes with it, as La Junta had the power to hit a single bad pitch out of the yard to end the game as they were the home team. Ayers struck out the leadoff hitter in the 8th inning that then reached base as the ball bounced away, and then took 2nd base on a wild pitch, the Reds intentionally walked their opponent’s top hitter to make it runners on 1st and 2nd base with no outs. Ayers then induced a groundout that 3rd baseman Aaron Kelly threw to 2nd baseman Branden Trujillo to record the first out of the inning.

  • Guide to Softball Rules and Basics
    Guide to Softball Rules and Basics History Softball was created by George Hancock in Chicago in 1887. The game originated as an indoor variation of baseball and was eventually converted to an outdoor game. The popularity of softball has grown considerably, both at the recreational and competitive levels. In fact, not only is women’s fast pitch softball a popular high school and college sport, it was recognized as an Olympic sport in 1996. Object of the Game To score more runs than the opposing team. The team with the most runs at the end of the game wins. Offense & Defense The primary objective of the offense is to score runs and avoid outs. The primary objective of the defense is to prevent runs and create outs. Offensive strategy A run is scored every time a base runner touches all four bases, in the sequence of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and home. To score a run, a batter must hit the ball into play and then run to circle the bases, counterclockwise. On offense, each time a player is at-bat, she attempts to get on base via hit or walk. A hit occurs when she hits the ball into the field of play and reaches 1st base before the defense throws the ball to the base, or gets an extra base (2nd, 3rd, or home) before being tagged out. A walk occurs when the pitcher throws four balls. It is rare that a hitter can round all the bases during her own at-bat; therefore, her strategy is often to get “on base” and advance during the next at-bat.
