"Coach Emanski taught me that, when I'm fielding the ground ball, I should stay down, stick my butt out, and count the hops," said shortstop Angel Berroa, explaining the method Emanski designed to help Little Leaguers and Royals infielders watch the ball all the way into their glove. "Once Coach Emanski also taught me how to count, the technique worked out great."


That is golden.

My favorite part was when he was talking about lining them up against the fence and hitting line drives at them from 20 feet away.

"It's called the Missile Drill," Emanski added. "Builds team character."

That's money.

I was gonna say, isnt that guy the guy from those cheesy little league training videos with Fred McGriff in the commercial. He's a "superstar".
