The baseball season, America’s favorite pastime, it might sound easy, but it is not! The infield starts a simple warmup and the game starts behind the plate; it is hard from the start! You have to train hard and eat right.
We interviewed Hollie May the third base player for the eagles. It is infield. Zakk Tracy’s opinion on right field you need to have stamina and speed you have to eat right and and drink a lot of water.
A normal practice routine is when we get there, we play pass, we run laps, and we catch fly ball. After that we do batting practice with the whole team and we play any position. A basic baseball game for the out field position isn’t easy. It is just like a practice except for real.
We warm up and then we play.
Hard work pays off!
Now we are interviewing Ghent Durepo. I am the catcher and pitcher. A lot goes on behind the plate you have to watch the bases to make sure that the base runner do not steal a base. Now from a pitcher’s perspective. I think it is very stressful because you can not win if you pitch a very good game the game is short and if you pitch a bad game then the game is very long.
