In this episode of The Hitting Zone, host Mitch Thomas breaks down the role of training — and why it’s absolutely essential to every part of a player’s success. 

⚾ What does effective training really look like?
⚾ How can players translate practice to performance?
⚾ Why is training just as much mental as it is physical?

Recorded live at CarShield Field, this episode dives into how quality training shapes athletes at every level, from mindset to mechanics — and why skipping the grind is never an option for those who want to level up.
