JUST DIG IN RADIO - BE A HITTER Podcast

   This is a very special day because this is the first podcast that I have invited a guest to appear on my show! So who do I have in store for you? Well, she is a two-time Olympian, gold and silver medalist, Pro Fastpitch All-Star and 3-time USA National Softball Player of the Year with the Texas Longhorns.  Those of you who know softball know I am talking about the 6’2” lefty out of my hometown, Katy, TX, my longtime teammate, coaching colleague and friend – the one and only, Cat Osterman. She is absolutely one of the most dominating pitchers in the world.  I personally watched her strike out thousands of batters in my 8 years of playing shortstop and second base behind her. She makes every team she plays on better… and not just a little better, championship better. She will be competing for the 2019 USA Softball team in hopes of competing for the Gold Medal once again in Tokyo for the 2020 Olympics.  While with Team USA from 2001 to 2010, Osterman compiled a cumulative record of 59-4 with a minuscule 0.38 ERA. She amassed 832 strikeouts in 425.2 total innings pitched. (www.si.com) In 2013, Osterman was inducted into the Texas Sports Hall of Fame alongside New Orleans Saints QB Drew Brees, former Dallas Cowboys RB Walt Garrison, former NBA Champion Shaquille O’Neal, and former Heisman Trophy winner from UT Ricky Williams. What an incredible group of athletes.  Today we are going to take a look at Cat’s journey as a young ball player that led to her success and dominance on the mound. We will dig into the mindset she will take into her training as she prepares to lace up her cleats and take the field once again with TEAM USA.  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/just-dig-in-radio/message

It is my opinion that parents need to be more involved in their player's training at home. Whether it's teaching them to ride a bike, complete their math homework, of practice their swing, a parent is the first coach a player will have. The parent is also the coach that will be around them the most. As a former USA Team Player, National Pro Fastpitch All-Star, Big 12 All-American & Big 12 Freshman of the year, and ASA 18U Gold National Champion, I am here to share with you the secret to teaching your players how to compete when they step up to the plate. I am here to share with you the drills that will help your players understand the object of the game and will help them with timing and hitting the ball to the open gaps.

Welcome to the very first JUST DIG IN RADIO podcast. In this episode, I share a story from an unknown author about what happens when you give a kid a baseball (or a softball), and the journey that lays ahead as that kid becomes a ball player... and anything else they want to be in life. I give special thanks to my family and share the dynamics of our relationships and how they played a huge role in my success as both a player and a motivational coach, who happens to love teaching hitting, and fielding, and well... the game.
