Play in the Present

What's important now? WIN. The hardest thing to do in baseball is play in the present the whole game. Its actually impossible but the best players just play the most pitches in the present. You can only control what you can control but many let things they can never control like the umpire take them away from their thoughts on executing on the next pitch. You either win or lose that pitch. Add them up at the end of the game and if you have a winning record you helped your team win. Many get lost in the score in the 4th inning but the only score that matters is the one at the end of the game. Attack the next pitch with confidence and presence because that is all you can control. When you fail act like you did it on purpose and when you succeed act like it was inevitable. You get a Win or a Loss on every pitch. On defense you have to prepare for the pitch like its one of the 5/6 pitches that decides the outcome. The video is from spring training, they lock it in and take care of this pitch over and over again until the game ends.
