1/ Pitching lesson fight strikes a nerve!
Former softball player, Christe Mirikitani, is in a dispute with her HOA on giving private pitching lessons in her backyard. HOA president says, it's violating an indenture that limits the operation of a business. What would you say if you were her neighbor?
We're throwing harder, but it's not easy to find anything that is risk free. Ask your friend who had money in Silicon Valley Bank. The tailwinds of high intent throws are starting to be louder. Yes, you're throwing 95 mph as a sophmore, but are you're able to sustain it without the risk of injury.
Recently, Dr. James Andrews, world renowned surgeon who specializes in the ulnar colletral ligament (Tommy John) spoke on the topic of high school pitchers throwing harder in 2016. The quote below has been circling the baseball social media feeds.
The retired sports medicine doctor recently was interviewed on Blair and Barker of SportsNet to speak on why more than 30% of MLB pitchers on an MLB roster have had Tommy John. He also gives you his big three culprits to why injuries are higher.
Oakland University outfielders combine for the most unreal play i've ever seen. The left fielder stopped at the warning track to see the ball travel over his head. He timed it right. As he jumped to rob a home run, the ball tipped off his glove. Instead of falling over the fence, the ball came back into play. The unbelievable happened next.
