I loved softball as a girl and I played on a team. I was a great catcher but didn’t have the strongest arm to throw, so I played LF a lot.

Things changed when I walked up to the plate, though. I was a known slugger/homer queen and every outfielder stepped back as I took the plate!

*I was great in school, it’s real life I suck at:-D

It’s all about the bat flip now.

The Greats all have their own pose. May as well start early….

That was my problem, too. But I could sure strut to the plate, adjust my glove straps, rub dust on my hands, tap my cleats with the bat, and even point it at the right field fence. If only I could’ve learned the second part of the equation…
