When asked how did you learn to hit the ball like that? Tyler answers, "I learned at my Grandpa's cages."
Thanks Grandpa for letting Tyler use your cages. He was 8/8 with on base hits tonight at practice.
Reminds me of a funny story... totally true... and if you know my Dad, even funnier..... I remember as a kid my dad built a pitching machine to use in the backyard. He built it out of spare parts. My guess is, it was a lawn mower engine and a wheel barrel wheel. The ball went through a piece of PVC pipe and the wheel propelled it. On the first trial run it flung a baseball all the way across the highway into a field (about 3/4 of a mile). I remember my Dad's comment, "hmmm ..... that went a little further then I thought." "Not sure I brought another ball."
