Baseball - April 2007

I am just starting coaching an 8th grade boys baseball team and I don't know what drills to do. I dont know the skill level of the kids so I guess i start off simple but are there any good drills?

I know it can detract from the actual game, but I really find the occasional fight and ejection quite enjoyable! The battle and the pitchers hitting players is so intense. Of course, I wouldn't want to see any of my boys getting hurt. I just think sometimes baseball gets a bit bland and it spices the game up a bit.

Do you believe that a player striving for 3000 hits at all costs should be even admired when they are resorting to these illegal tactics.

When a batter steps into the batters box for the first time of the season, what is their batting average. I am pretty sure it is .000, but I have a friend that swears when you bat for the first time your average is 1000. Then I was also told by them because you start at 1000 if you are 0-1 your average is .500. I was like no if you are 1-2 or 2-4 your average would then be .500. If you could please get back to me with the correct answer please do. Thanks

This was a trivia question for the bar the other night and I never got the answer. It supposedly is an Amercian League player for the late 60's early 70's.

what is the range of a good batting average, an average batting average, a superior batting average and a crappy one? i don't understand what they mean, please help!

The best answer gets 10 points.
One catch here, though. You cannot use that lame, whiny crap about money, spending, salary caps, or any of that. I want REAL reasons. This question is to see if anyone has any legitimate reasons for hating the Yankees, and not just mere jealousy. I'm betting you don't. Still, I want a good effort, as the 10 points will be awarded, guaranteed.

1969 - two von joshua cards from the dodgers. One has his statistics and information on the back and one is missing everything. Worth anything?

If the Twins, low market team, can get so many good and fantastic players, how dominate would they be if they were as rich as the Yanks!?

Johan Santana -Best Pitcher
Joe Mauer - Great young catcher
Justin Morneau - Dominating after being hammerd by a fast ball to the face
Francisco Liriano - Soon to return in 08!
Joe Nathan - One of if not THE best closer in the game
Best Bullpen as of last year
Great D

I'm not trying to brag or anything, but I wanna hear your thoughts, what would the Minnesota Twins be like if they had as much money as the Yankees or Red Sox?
