As a high school infielder, one of the biggest confidence boosts I can get, is seeing a big leaguer make an error during a drill. It just lets you know that no one is perfect, and even when you are making a lot of mistakes, you just keep working and get better, because the big guys make mistakes too
I had the same thought watching this
As a college English tutor, id say run-on sentences are an issue for you but your prepositional phrase commas and use of too are on point.

Look up the 2,000 hour rule bro. In one off season I took my son from struggling as a second baseman with tight hops and hard hit grounders to begin the best in the area. We set a schedule and followed it. Worked fielding mechanics 3-4 times a week and did as many reps as possible. In one summer he’s one of the top infielders in our area now. More reps are the key, and allowing your self to fail while you perfect and hone your craft.
Bro I’m 30 and play for a men’s league and I feel the same way. Everyone makes mistakes but the more you drill the better you’ll be!
Aight I’m in bed and now I want to field some ground balls after that motivation lol.
Kuip always says he misses taking grounders the most.
Literally same lol
I dont have a favorite baseball team...
But i think i like the giant
CAUSE LOOK AT THOSE UNIFORMS...
BLACK AND ORANGE ARE AMAZING TOGETHER
@@rslwannabe9475 Can't go wrong. At times things can be straight TORTURE but...we have a great history, a great ball park, amazing announcers, and a vibe.
@@IsaacCloud ''Torture''
Agreed. I have to stop practicing baseball for probably a day or two because i did a few to many hundred practice baseball picks off a punching bag. I just throw the ball at the punching bag and catch it on the bounce. --It absolutely murdered my arm--
"Rushing is for people who can't throw." FACTS
Training like this is literally my dream job
It ain't training... Its having fun. I can just sit and throw a ball against a boxing bag for 1000+ times and catch it and have fun

Heaven is the backfields of Spring Training, picking grounders at 9 am.
Naw heaven is the greatest thing ever for followers of the Lord but yea infield is awesome
You can say that twice, brother!
Looks like it dont it lol
“Rushing is for people who can’t throw.” Love it. And you can replace the word “throw” for whatever skill you’re discussing.
I love Kai he seems like such a great coach to work with! Also love the talk at the end, no ego, no my way or the highway, or any toxicity. Just like help me help you and we love that 🥰
It's very common in coaching younger athletes that it takes a bit to get them completely behind themselves. This is one way to do it. Put the burden on the athlete. When they finally pick it up all the way they are much stronger.
Wow that’s a bad ass coach!! 👊🏽💯
"Watch Crawford take ground balls"....
Absolute Respect to my boy! He's awesome
Marco looks huge! Can’t wait to see him come up when he’s ready
"You can be good but if you cant do it 10 out of 10 times it doesnt matter" 💯💯💯💯
Thank you Coach. I was doing this with my daughter. Now she see's you and will actually listen!. Go Giants
Lol. That's exactly how it works. Drives me crazy!!
Go Sox
@@archiej.muisejr.7088 ha!
Dubon seems like a really fun guy to hang out with. He's always cracking jokes.
Unbelievable detail and thorough communication- Traits you love to see in a coach. More videos like this, please!
Saving this video for when I’m a dad
Now that’s how you coach! 👍 Wish I had that type of coaching in my baseball years I was a natural athlete but my mental game wasn’t their . You definitely need a great coach to help you out as much as mentally and physically in your game.
I know its fire when Kai talks this art. Youre a stud Kai 💪
Chuck Knoblauch needed this video 20 years ago.
Very excited for the Giants future.
I’m a baseball player and my coach did this with me and really help with me staying in front.
Amazing , i am 36 and i’m still learning
36 !! ... and still learning !! ... yep , i get you my friend .... and one other thing you’re going to learn in due course, is that 36 ain’t old .... and you’re going to continue to learn for the rest of your life, if you want to and provided you have the right attitude and an open mind .... 👍sounds like you do and will , young man ... 😜
@@aussiesurfer805 age never stopped my from playing just wasted so much years of my life not learning the game. I believe it is really over when you stop trying to go out there and work even as an amateur player.
@@randyTwillems true in life and sport oh wise one ..... (but we all
know sport is waaaay way waaaay more important 😜..) .....
Hey, and try not to think back to the past with regret or disappointment , my old mate ... kind of sounds like you were - maybe not .... but anyway, it can be hard to do, but what is done is done (as they say) ... see your past (and present) as learning opportunities , some things you learn fast and some slow ... as long as you learn them in the end ..... the best thing you can learn though is how to learn, that tends to make things go a little easier and quicker for you and tends to result in a better success rate ... again, for life and sport ...
Ok - I’ll stop lecturing now - - because one thing i’ve learnt about learning is, you’ll never be the person doing the learning and improving , if you’re the person doing all the talking and advice giving .. ....
@@randyTwillems there is nothing wrong with being an amateur player, me myself i play in the netherlands, and over here it is the older one passing on there knowledge on to us. On the field, it is all about the love for the game and not about who plays on a higher level my g !
These vids are what got the giants their wins this year
The best!!!! Back at it!!!! Gracias🙏🏼
not even a giants fan but i love watching videos like this so i can work on these things.
The best!!! back at it!! gracias 🙏🏼
These are my favorites
Great jobs guys! Keep training those body mechanics
You da man coach Kai !
Amazing I love seeing if I’m doing my fundamentals right seeing that I am gives me confidence I got try outs today Ty.
thanks for sharing, that was an excellent video - really enjoyed it , and I got a lot from it ...... As an experienced basketball coach of elite juniors wanting to go pro one day, and a beginner baseball coach of regular domestic players with very different skill levels and outlooks for their game; I got (or confirmed) 4 big take aways or approaches to training from this , for both players and coaches alike , and I’m now convinced that they can apply to any sport:
(1) break down the aspect you’re working on into smaller parts beginning with a simple stage that only works 1 or 2 parts of the whole , and then build up adding more parts once you have executed the stage you’re working at competently , moving towards the whole ...
(2) fundamentals are the key to performing well in a sport . No matter what level you are at, fundamentals need to be considered, refined and practiced every time you train or work on a skill. Thee’s many things you can’t control in a game, but you can control the way you execute the fundamental skills by always working on them in practice ... more often than not the team that wins is the team that does all the little standard things properly and better than the other team ... a flashy team that cares less about the fundamentals , winged or concentrates on aspects they can’t control or always tried the flashy instead of the basic ain’t going to have much success, and will rarely improve or improve quickly ..
(3) practice for perfection and make it game like ... whether you are on your knees in a warm up drill for preseason at your local park or you’re 1 of 2 players trialing for the last spot available at the New York Yankees, practice game like and for perfection every time -- this way you will be noticed and it will impress, it becomes a training norm that is infectious to others, bad habits won’t creep in , you’ll get the most out of every session.... then on game day or the final day of trails, it’s just the “same old same old“ , because you’ve done it with perfection, good intensity and concentration 1000s of times before..... you’ll go into your zone and execute subconsciously more times than not
(4) listen, show respect to others, be polite, be positive and give honest constructive feedback at the appropriate time, think about how you can do better next session and/or next ball coming your way , don’t ever rest and rely on what you’ve done before and think if it works well it will always work well so there’s no need to change or try to get better at it ... because you want to always be improving , you want to keep things fresh, stay interested, challenge yourself and others, be happy and motivated , you want to have buy-in and know your thoughts and ideas are respected and considered, and you want to learn as much as you can from others (you can learn from everybody - even if it’s learning what not to do) ... all of this has the goal of sticking at something for both enjoyment and to get better ....and this is transferable to all parts of your life and can be your guide through a successful life, not just a way to get better at basketball or baseball ....
Ok ,. I’m off my soap box now, but that video and those coaches (especially the head coach) triggered me - in a very good way ... and it reaffirmed/solidified my training ethos that i wanted to write down to make it clear and help keep it stuck in my mind ...
I love these
damn! I love Dubon so much
"Poquito más duro"... Interesante video. Go SFGiants!
thank you for this video. very useful!
This is excellent coaching!!
when you talk about baseball I get happy
This is kind of satisfying.
Baseball is a funny sport. As an infielder, when you are young the balls are hit slower but the runners are fast. It slowly gets turned around as you get older till the big leagues where hit balls are bullets and runners are generally slow. It's still the same game but everything is different.
Great video
Money!!!!!!!!!!!! Kai is the man!
Amazing
Love this
Damn u put in more work on our team then pro choice Kap. Way to go I got Bebble to get my sig, ty! 🙌❤️🔥💯
This some great coaching fr fr
Kai played for a real disciplined power house high school in Hawaii, Waiakea Warriors. His father was a really good coach also. I was fortunate enough to play against him at the time but he wasn’t a starter yet as a sophomore. Waiakea was too stacked.
Good stuff
07:35 what he just told him is a BIG KEY 🔑
This looks fun
I like these
can we get some videos of crawford fielding ground balls
This is super helpful!
Dubie and Lucie!
I really like Mauricio Dubon
i thought kai was kapler's little sidekick regarding in game decisions (my dad calls him mini-me when they're both wearing glasses) but honestly he is a tremendous coach
Good pratice
That field looks like it is maintained great. On our little league field in a small town there might be a bad bounce and a kid might catch one in the beak. 😮
You should do more vídeos
Waoo grande liga es grande liga
Jason Wood dancin 🤣
Not Alex Wood its some coach I think. Still funny tho
Thats Jason Wood, he’s a coordinator for infield instruction.
Haha ok thanks
marco luciano the best
Best in the west right here!
great stuff @Giants, would love to intern one day
My goodness Luciano is a unit
Next Story
this is what I think a coach should be make the players feel confident even after failure I know this is the bigs but still confidence and cockiness are different things
baseball lets gooooooooo
nice field
That was spectacular, I have a you tube channel where I share some baseball techniques, but more hitting and outfield techniques, I hope to be able to use an important part that I saw here to share with the infielders who follow me.
Excited to see Lucie with the Giants
"Rushing is for people that can't throw" What a nugget!
Amazing content, thank you! SF Giants are helping this Dad help his 11u and 8u players. Thank you!
@ChicagoCubs 👀 where ya at? 🤣
Anyone else amazed with the consistency of the hitting?
God Job
What I would give just to practice on fields like that
Probably alot of practice until your body hurts like mine lmao
My body doesn't wanna train right now so
IM GONNA TRAIN MY MIND... :)
I need to do this with my 12 year old… nice stuff
baseball fun
my man has drip
Anyone else impressed with the coach hitting the ball on target each time? If I tried that balls would go everywhere
Do outfielders
Man there’s snow on the ground rn but damn I wanna get back on the field
Ron Wotus!!!!
Hell of a coach! Gotta get him down south to LA
How is Kwan Adkins? He subbed for my class
The fungos are delicious.
I'm just wondering why they have game gloves and practice gloves. Is there a benefit to working with a different glove? Why switch in the middle of the practice? Why not use the game glove all the time?
1000x times better than any coachng i got in hs
💪🏻
I want to play Mlb one day. Any other drills or workouts I could do?
My baby boy is 9. I can use pieces of this to get him a little bit better for his skill set ...
What gloves are they using for in game.
Yess ofour mi🎉⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️
Apoyen alos mejores apoyen a los mejores jugadores
are those white gloves special to practice?
You guys should do some for outfielders.
They have some I believe
日式和美式訓練真是截然不同，日式強調腳法細膩美式就是簡單力落
Its awesome for me hello from russia
I d like to play there but unfortunally i live in russia
Yo 6.... following your dreams! Next time ur on the islands hit me up 🤙🏽-yocks
marco 😍😍😍😍😍🥵🥵🥵
Dubon is more fluid, he’ll be Crawford’s replacement. Luciano I can see playing 3rd or outfield. Future looks bright! Go Giants!
this didn’t age well.
My coach sent me this
I WOULD ADVISE YOU TO RUN 5 MILES PERS DAY AND DO SOME OVER LOAD TRAINING!!!!!!
Everyone is wondering how the heck he is that amazing at fungo.
for sure ... fungo to my team if they were on their knees and just a couple of metre apart , would not end well at all ...😬 😖 😩 🤬 🥺 🚑
Could I possibly talk to a coach from the giants?
