You’re listening to the Dear Baseball Gods podcast. In this show, I help parents, players and coaches better navigate their baseball careers. All right. Welcome back to Dear Baseball Gods. I’m Dan Blewett and this is episode 103. And in today’s show, we’re gonna talk about two main topics. Number one. What do you do as a pitcher when you can’t locate a certain pitch or any of your stuff, for that matter. And secondly, I’m gonna talk a little bit about cleats because I think as a parent  it’s good to have a perspective on what cleats do now. There’s different models. That’s really what I’m gonna focus on. There’s metal, there’s TPU, which is like the hard plastic, there’s rubber, and there’s also turf. So obviously cleats are not made of turf, but turf fields are their own animal and there’s more and more of them. And I really battled to get the information out to my parents when we had our Academy and our teams, because every year there’s just look, we got to make sure we’re prepared equipment wise to really compete, especially if it rains, et cetera, et cetera. So I think a little bit of a discussion about cleats is important. Before we get going. I do want to mention again, my new strength conditioning program for baseball players is now live.
