You're on Day 13 of a 14 day tournament streak. Your body is tired. Your mind doesn't want to be there. And somehow you still have to make good calls.

In this episode, we break down the three things that actually keep you functional during the longest stretches of tournament season:

1. Mental Awareness — It's OK to not be having a good time. Accept the grind instead of fighting it. The moment you stop trying to be positive all weekend is when you actually reset.

2. Physical Foundation — 2 to 6 hours standing in heat will destroy you if you're not hydrated and fueled going in. Your body failing means your mental game fails. Hydration, water, snacks. Non negotiable.

3. Personal Recovery Strategy — You need to know what you need off the field to be your best on the field. For some that's staying fully immersed in baseball. For others it's completely disconnecting. There's no one right answer. But knowing yourself? That's vital.

This is how you survive tournament season without burning out. This is how you call good games on Day 13 when everything says you shouldn't be there.
