This is my first time playing baseball in 5 years. I am a sophomore in high school. I have the strength I need to be able to throw a baseball far, but I can barely get the ball to second from the fence. I’m guessing that my technique is wrong. If you could give me some tips on how to hold a baseball when throwing, how my arms should move, maybe even a YouTube video on throwin better, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

build your core strength thru push ups, dips etc

good luck

I’m looking for a love story about where the girl falls for the baseball, player it can also be the other way around. I need a romance, about baseball and the game, and it need to be appropriate for teens.

That would be cool. I’ve been looking for the same type of book

If a baseball’s velocity is increased to three times its original velocity, by what factor does its kinetic energy increase?

Hello erica, kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the velocity. Hence as we increase the velocity by THREE times then KE would increase by 3^2 times ie NINE times,

What baseball manufacturer (Wilson, Spalding, etc) makes the baseballs used in the Little League World Series? Thanks.

-Baseball Collectibles; well over 5,000 baseball cards, ball autographed by 2003 Cubs, Cubs calendars, tons of Cubs shirts, Cubs trinkets, Cubs pennants, etc.
-In 2003 I was selected to be a Chicago Cubs celebrity bat kid (it doen’t entail bats though) and that really got our whole family into baseball. Also, by brother got a pack of baseball cards for his birthday in 2003 before the season started, so that kind of drew us in.
-My friends are pretty much all girls, and none of them know about baseball, so I mainly will just talk baseball with my brother daily. I wish I could discuss baseball with someone other than my brother : (
-Baseball is so important to me. I don’t know what I would do without it.
-I am a HUGE baseball fan. I know almost everything about the game, and what team everybody was on in 2003.
-There’s just something so pure and American about baseball. Just being at a ballpark on a warm summer’s day and watching a good game, there’s nothing in the world that can top it.
-I’ve been to Wrigley Field, Miller Park, Busch Stadium, Great American Ballpark, PNC Park, Citizens Bank Park, RFK Stadium, and Fenway Park. (My family tends to plan our summer vacations around Cubs games)

I have noticed in the baseball section the more facts you quote, be it baseball history from sites like baseball almanac or baseball reference or stats or box score results from Yahoo Sports, the more thumbs downs I will receive for an answer. So what do you hate more current stats or baseball history?

I enjoy almost all aspects of the great game.

I’ll never understand the fascination with walk-up songs, though.

Steinbrenner is having a hard time taking the heat in baseball, but Football and Basketball have been testing for drugs and steroid since the early 1990′s. Random drug testing, anywhere, anytime …Just asked Rickie Williams. The demographics of baseball may have a lot to do why this wasn’t done earlier versus the suspicions that befailed urban players.
The racial divide in baseball had been "untouchable." The press has had a field day on football and baseball players. So welcome to the scrutiny baseball.

Yes I think he is.
The problem I have with baseball is the MLB & teams allowed this to happen. When that many players are using its like you have no choice but to use to save your job.

He is a HUGE fan of baseball. Any ideas on what to get him?

A pack of his favorite baseball teams baseball cards. (or just any pack of baseball cards)

His favorite teams hat. (they should be cheaper since he’s 6.)

Any kind of baseball t-shirt.

Maybe one of his favorite players uniforms. (just shirt, could be expensive though)

Maybe tickets for him and his friend to a pro baseball game. (could be expensive varying upon where you sit in the stadium.)

One of those collectible mini baseball bats with favorite teams logo on it.

Some collectible mini baseball helmets. (I don’t know if they still have them, I got them when I was younger, i’m 14)

Hey, I hope these gift ideas help you. I’m a big baseball fan too. Good luck!!!
