Better than yesterday

Day 2 was a much better showing. We re-ran the mile, and will continue to do so until all the players are up to speed. We skipped the baseball stuff and did a little extra conditioning this morning. Accountability means you have to reach the standard you set. With 40 games in about 50 days, we have to be in good condition for the long season.

Carl Wolf took the win off the table today. Another solid day of conditioning. He's come into practice ready to roll. He and our only other returning sophomore, Quinn Danehy, had solid days at practice.

We wrapped up the conditioning with some competitions. The eight seniors took down the eight freshmen in Tug O' War , but not before a good fight. We finished with one-on-one conditioning, with all the winners forming Team Schuster. Scott and RJ Spinella put up the best times yesterday, and Scott took the head to head with the best time this morning. Team Spinella was made of the team of players that left a win on the table.

Tomorrow the mounds come out and bullpens begin. As Greg Maddux used to say, "You can't run the ball across the plate."

A shout out to Alex Foster and Tommy John. "Run with the wise."
