- In this video I talk with Kevin Graber (KG) of Big Blue Baseball on TH-cam and Head Coach of the 11 time State Champs Phillips Academy Andover! KG is literally writing the book on baserunning and in this video I pick his brain about why the Hard 90 Is so important and how he teaches it to his players. This is video 5 of 5 that we shot together so if you want to see more videos with KG on baserunning then drop some ideas/topics down in the comment section below.

🙏🏻 Thanks so much for watching! If you've got any questions or comments about baserunning drills, hop down below and let's chat there!
Agree, hard 90 is super important to teach at the youth level.
I am a terrible baserunner. Solid defender, but oh god the agony when I let my guys down in baserunning
Hello Mr.Madden, I've only watched two of your videos on your channel, and I just want to say how amazing and informative they are WOOOOOWWWWW.
I have a lot of questions to ask, but first things first, I want to acknowledge the fact of how important and valuable these videos are to guys like me, guys who dream of pro-baseball. By far the best youtube channel for baseball, thank you. I'm going to tell all my friends about this channel.
Quick question what is the best pitch to compliment a curveball
I have found that even the 4th or 5th fastest on team can actually have the quickest time out of box to firstbase! Dirtball reads is alwasy extra 90...it puts pressure on catcher to have backhand pick ball to have chance of throwing runner out...when they just got used to dropping and blocking! Taking 2nd with ease even with fast recovery...IF GONE on ball contact with dirt!
I have a pitching question, I’ve been working on a sinker for about a year now and I cannot get any horizontal movement on it even though I throw from the 3/4 arm slot and I’ve tried every grip and release point and some pros that have nasty tailing sinkers. I was looking to see if you can make a video and help since I am about to replace it with a cutter because it works better but I throw a slider with similar action. I really need your help
Can you make a video about drills to do in winter when you cant go outside because of snow
You should do a review on the shoeless joe gloves they look pretty nice
Is this not an issue if the first baseman successfully catches the ball but you beat the throw?
Chopping your feet, looking around, and especially leaning infield could indicate an intention to advance to second and then you're at risk of being tagged out because you're off the bag.
Not what the rule says..
@@schurlknight20 What does it say then?
@@joshbatchford I believe the two major parts that make up the rule are:
1. "the runner cannot be tagged out after overrunning first base as long as he/she immediately returns to the base"
2. " the runner can make no attempt to go to second base or he can be tagged out".
So hypothetically, you could run past base, stop, turn, and look at second, then walk back to first, as long as you don't take a step in direction of 2nd base.
@@ms-vb9yf So number 2 is what I was referring to. I think that turning or looking towards second base and chopping your feet could easily be interpreted as an attempt to advance to second. At the very least, you're very much giving the umpire the opportunity to make a call that you won't like.
@@joshbatchford You make a good point. The second part seems open for interpretation, so sounds like it could be left for ump to decide
Hey, John Madden. If this is for young players, why is he saying he's "busting his butt" to get to first, but said when the player sees the ball get through the infield to make the turn? A young players, or any player, busting his butt to beat a throw should not be looking at the ball. He should be looking at the first base coach. Sorry, I didn't want to be "that guy" but I am. Lol Oh, and if you do read this, when are you coming to the Dallas/Fort Worth area in Texas? My son is about to be 16 and is a side arm thrower. Had been his whole pitching life. Would love for you to work with him.
I’ve never seen a professional baseball player chop his feet and look around after stepping on first base, especially after being thrown out by 15 feet.
Agreed, I can't recall a big leaguer doing this. Probably because overthrows are rare in MLB compared to HS. Also, foul territory is larger, the players are faster and on overthrows the runner is getting to second no matter what. But that said, it isn't total BS. In the beginning of the video he said he is trying to teach and help kids get to the next level. This is demonstrating the player is 'alert and ready' to a scout. And if you still do it after being thrown out by 15 feet, it shows you are coachable. For those situations I'd say it is worthwhile. Also, I know there are players that make their MLB debut at 19, 20 and 21 so it may make it seem like HS players are close to complete players, but it isn't true. Regarding college the minors and the major leagues, HS is instructional. You can't compare teaching and training 15-18 y/o kids to MLBers. All that said, what we need is a study/timed comparison of the two styles. I'd like to know if breaking down after first gets you to 2nd 1.5 seconds faster, or more importantly if that translates into taking 3rd on an overthrow more often.
Most pros don't hustle to first especially on a grounder to 2nd. They assume their out anyway and jog
This is to help kids get to the next level. Anything to stand out helps, I’m sure.
Hey coach I’m an 8th grader going to hicghschool at the beginning of the year I was throwing low 80’s I tried to change my pitching everything now I throw low 70’s and I can’t seem to fix it I have video of me pitching could you please help me it would mean alot
It says here that you never made it to the majors you did play on the minors though
What are some amazing baseball camps to attend, where the chances are really strong in your favor of being scouted to the MLB ?
I played 2 years of junior college baseball and two year at the D1 level. There are great camps out there and I personally think it’s good to get as much quality coaching available to you. That being said focus on working hard everyday to improve your game. Focus on out working everyone you know and not being scouted by MLB. If you aren’t focused on working harder than everyone around you the you don’t even have to worry about being scouted by any professional ball clubs. Hard work beats talent every time. And when you set goal just put in the work in the gym and on the field with the goal of just getting to play somewhere after high school. And each level have that same mentality. There come a time where every single player has to accept there time playing competitive baseball is over. And all the talent in the world won’t matter. Putting in the work is what’s going to get you to that next level
Do you know a guy named Dustin Murr John Madden
