Wow, 10 years! It is hard to believe my idea to bring a baseball training center to Northern Kentucky has not only become a reality but something that people really believed in. I am super excited and proud to say that ATY has grown up and has solidified its position as the premiere baseball training facility in Northern Kentucky. We have grown and taken shape with the addition of former Major Leaguer Brandon Berger taken over the hitting and becoming the BEST hitting instructor in the area…

Games vs Practice - Are you working on your game?

BY: Ed Smith SportsWorx

While working a baseball showcase I had the opportunity to listen to an interesting presentation given by Coach Jim Zerilla, a former Division 1 baseball coach at the University of Louisville .

Coach Zerilla was doing a great job covering many of the aspects of the recruiting process. He touched upon the importance of grades, how to interview coaches, what to look for in a college baseball program and self evaluation to find… Continue

Hey Hookey, What about those Giants?

As a former Giants player I have had quite a few people comment about the Giants and their entry into the World Series. I think they want me to hoot and holler…?

When I get those comments I am not really sure how to react. I currently work

for the Brewers organization, I grew up a Reds fan in Reds country and I was a

Giant in the mid 90's. So it makes me ask the question what drives your

loyalty, your affinity for a sports team.

For me…

Going for MRI tomorrow but I'm not anticipating any tearing of the ligament. His pain wasn't while he was throwing...it was the next day he was really sore. I'll give you an update when there's more info. Jon

However I will definitely be in over the next week or 2 once, possibly twice before the season starts to fine tune some mechanics and such before we go into the season.

At 2:34pm on January 5, 2009, Tom Hoffman said…: You know I just can't help myself. I'm out of control joining groups! Nice site. Keep up the good work! I'm hoping to get a group from my son's team up there in a few weeks. See ya soon.

At 10:20am on July 23, 2008, Rodney Krohman said…: Hey Chris looks like you guys are doing well. Keep it up. Hey just wanted to let you know about Brad's summer. He had a great summer he pitched against some of the best teams in the country. The scouts have told him they want him to apply for the draft after next season. We also have to go to a Reds tryout on 7/30/08 at Dunbar High School. Brad is really excited. He keeps working hard and is now trying to lose a few pounds. Keep up the good work and hope to see ya soon.

I have a question about balking. Saturday I was pitching in a game and there was a runner on 3rd and a runner on 1st.
I was pitching from the stretch. I lifted my leg and stepped to 3rd to fake a throw, then I spun around to 1st. The runner was heading to 2nd, so I threw him out. The umpire called a balk on me. He said I had to step off the rubber before going to 1st, but I thought a fake throw to 3rd is stepping off the rubber.
I saw it in a college game on tv where the pitcher faked to 3rd and 1st, but I don't know if his foot was off the rubber to begin with.
Can you tell me how to do that double move without balking?
thanks, I hope your team is winning alot!

At 12:49pm on March 23, 2008, Jon Williams said…: He's still doing the throwing program...60 throws every 2-3 days. Threw from the mound for the first time Thursday (20 pitches) and again yesterday (20 pitches). No pain or soreness so I think he's in good shape. Their first games are next weekend but I don't think he'll be ready to pitch yet. Hope all is well in AZ.

At 8:07am on March 10, 2008, Rodney Krohman said…: Chris just wanted to tell you that Brad picked up his first college victory against Cumberlands. He started pitched 2 innings faced 7 batters no runs no hits 1k and 1 walk.
