Summer baseball is here.
The College World Series. Summer leagues. Travel tournaments. Showcase events.
Everybody says they love baseball.
But baseball eventually asks for proof.
Long days. Short nights. Heat. Failure. Repetition.
You either love the dog days and the grind... or you don't.
The game always knows. ⚾️🔥
The Rangers officially opened the season today with a district win over Post 53!
Calvin Rosati 2-3, 2B, 2 RBI
@EliAcosta_20 1-2, BB, SB
Matt Coleman 1-3, 2 R
@JMitchBsbl 1-3
Matt Coleman got the win on the mound, throwing 4 innings, giving up 0 runs, and striking out 4!
Pitchers need aerobic capacity. It's a real foundation for recovery between pitches, innings, and outings.
Running poles isn't a great way to build it though, and the "mental toughness" thing is overdone.
With the roster finalized we are no longer accepting full time players. However we have a need for guest players in June for mid week games. Great opportunity for 2027s/2028s to get involved with legion baseball!
Cannons are looking to add a few more arms for this summer in the @VBLBaseball. Full contracts are available. Please DM us or comment below. @FlatgroundApp@Kobewhite23

🧵 The 7 things college baseball coaches evaluate that have nothing to do with your son's swing or velocity.
After 35 years on both sides of recruiting, here's what actually moves the needle:
Your Local Hometown Airman and @WoGroveBaseball Standout, @PLyons_ will be making a brief stint with the Cannons before he has to head back to @AF_Baseball for more Military Training. Lyons won the High School homerun derby that was put on by the Valley Baseball League during the 2024 All-Star game festivities. In his time at Woodgrove, Patrick was a 3x all-district Outfielder. He holds school records in Homeruns, Hits, Stolen Bases, runs, and walks. Welcome to the Cannons!!
