    Baseball Dads #39 - Dodgers win the World Series
    Dec 23 2020

    The Los Angeles Dodgers won the World Series in 2020, their first since 1988. Yes, it was a short and insane season, with expanded playoffs and all kinds of strange rules across the board. But as many predicted this was the year of Dodger blue. This is my conversation with four friends – Shane Trowbridge, Cody Farley, Rob Barber and Ryan Miller. These guys are all Dodgers fans and they are all Baseball Dads. Together we took on the big questions: what did this year's WS title mean to you? Who's your favorite Dodger? Has anyone ever seen Tom Poston in the same room as Vin Scully?”

    “When you’re done learning, you’re done coaching.”
    That’s Jack Ferrick’s philosophy. So i'm very glad to resume this conversation with Jack Ferrick from CatchersU.com --- here's a guy who is not just an expert instructor for catchers and hitters at the high school and college levels. He is also an associate scout for the Milwaukee Brewers and he offers some terrific insight for players and parents at this stage. If your son is hoping and planning to move forward and continue playing at the collegiate level - this guy knows what it takes. What are scouts looking for in a player?
    Is there a certain kind of physical build or skill set?
    Jack gets into that in this, our second conversation. Really hope you enjoy it. And check out Jack at catchersU.com. Expert training and advice for your young player.
