Taking Your Facility Work Into the Game — In-Game Performance Is What Coaches Recruit | EMD Shorts

Velocity up. Exit velocity up. Metrics looking great. But what does it look like when the lights come on and the game starts? In this episode, Andy and Keith tackle one of the most important and most overlooked transitions in the entire player development and recruiting process — taking everything you have built in the facility and the practice field and actually making it show up in games when it matters most. We cover: – Why facility work and private coaching are valuable but incomplete without in game application – How to make the transition from practice performance to game performance — the evolution every player must make – Why velocity and exit velocity in a facility mean nothing to coaches if they do not translate to getting outs and making good swing decisions – What coaches are actually evaluating when they watch you play — and why your metrics alone will not get you recruited – The gap between facility work and game performance and what it tells a coaching staff about a recruit – How to bring your practice habits and mechanical improvements into live game situations – Why the ability to actually play the game is still the most important recruiting evaluation tool – What making this jump looks like for pitchers — translating velocity and spin rate into getting hitters out – What making this jump looks like for hitters — translating exit velocity and launch angle into quality at bats and swing decisions – Why bridging this gap is the next evolution in your recruiting process If your son has great numbers in the facility but has not yet figured out how to make them show up in games — this episode is exactly what he needs to hear right now. 🔔 Subscribe for weekly college baseball recruiting tips 📞 Book a FREE 30-minute call with EMD Baseball: emdbaseball.com/products/free-15-minute-call 🎙️ Dugout Dish Podcast — New episodes every week #CollegeBaseballRecruiting #BaseballDevelopment #BaseballRecruiting #CollegeBaseball #HighSchoolBaseball #PitcherDevelopment #HitterDevelopment #DugoutDish #EMDBaseball Gloves - www.kaligloves.com Diamond College Showcase Camps - www.diamondcollegeshowcase.com
