How To Train Like a Big League Infielder

[@tonycompaglia7183]

Honestly, spring training should be streamed all day. Players doing drills, taking bp, working with pitching coaches. I'd have it in the background playing all day.

Please please please...more of this type of content!!

[@CriscoNabisc0]

"the backwards move is the first step to the exchange, not the last step to the catch" Just incredible advice all in one statement, this alone can help so many young infielders with their fundamentals.

[@mikeking6821]

absolutely, i thought the exact same thing as soon as he said it. Great stuff

Been listening to Kai for a few years now and he just keeps getting better and better! So pumped for his rise through the ranks. The guy knows his stuff!!

[@mp3firezapper]

This is so dope. Really appreciate the content y'all been putting out, please keep it up! Looks like Kai is an outstanding communicator and infield coach.

[@ao2092015]

Dodger fan here…this is outstanding. Kai communicates well, has great insights, and makes the routine drill interesting.

[@eric5012]

Kai Correa, Once a Logger Always a Logger!! Roll 'em!!

[@jdnunez4307]

These videos are priceless in the amount of knowledge & different ways of thinking when it comes to fielding, time , space, trajectory, etc young players need to take these vids and study. 10 mins of consistent drilling these aspects will make better ball players

[@ajenks9]

This is the best stuff - I can watch this all day long perfecting your craft - much respect for you guys - go Giants!

[@anthonydangelo9567]

[@c.miyasato2028]

This must be so awesome for Kean as he gets to work with a coach he's been with since he was young. Both of them Hilo boys representing in the Bay Area

[@bobosputnik]

Such a fantastic resource: Best quote: "The backwards move is the FIRST STEP of the exchange, not the step of the catch." 2:17. Once infielders get that into their head it totally changes their approach.

[@buckybigspin7054]

Slater the super utility !

[@andyerosa7587]

The Giants literally have the best youtube content out of all of the mlb

This is so sick! Please do an outfield one, that would be awesome, thanks.

[@tommyjimenez19]

Whats the name of the training glove in the beginning?

[@juanfigueroa-serville2465]

Thank you so much for making this training available to the public. I’m grateful!!!!

[@grelectricllc2414]

Excellent !!!! I will use this with my 11u team.

[@BucnDodger77]

Very good video... maybe do a weekly series on different positions very informative

[@ouyrwq]

That is the definition of fun. Imagine being a coach having access to the best baseball athletes to share your elite knowledge. Best of times.

[@yasha8951]

Thank you very much for putting this out I wish more organizations where putting this type of material out

[@PlopstoperGames]

Yankee fan here fantastic job on the content giants

[@cjcjcjcjcjcjify]

I appreciate the art of fielding a groundball. As a youth baseball instructor, it’s rare to see angles introduced as if kids won’t grasp it. Just get in front of the ball they say. We should be focused on getting the kids to understand concepts like angles, glove/hand positioning, fielding zone. If they get that at a young age, that will lead to cleaner and more competitive games.

[@jackdolan3056]

These type of videos are the best

[@dagruddicker22]

Please do more like these vids. thank you so much Giants!!! I miss SF!!!!

[@thegoodfella2045]

Very good , as a 13 year old I remember watching videos of tony Gwynn teaching how to hit and field and this is just as great , and I’m a die hard dodger fan

[@deman817]

Die hard Giants fan but you would be an idiot to not listen to the coaches in LA. There is a great reason they're there.

[@randyTwillems]

I think it be a good idea to setup a channel where you constantly put up baseball clinics for all ages. You can put the video up and follow it whenever you like, like keep repeating it. This video greatly improved my in fielding, i also had to go out on the field more often to get a feel for it.

[@michaelstgeorge9550]

Kai Correa is a Freaking SAVANT !!! This is the coaches clinic I want to go to !! More videos please !!!!

So on that last drill, who thinks these guys are adjusting the ball to a 4 seam grip that fast? Can't be happening that quickly, or maybe I can't fathom it.

[@mbbm4318]

How come Slater is not wearing a hat!?

[@wandcamilo3989]

I honestly think this is bullshit and the players are just not putting a bad face for the coach. I really don't think anything is better than actual experience. Once you get an actual bullet grounder to you there's no 1 or 2 or 2 mixed with 1. success is completely reliant on repetition of that same type of grounder

[@jamesgreen9791]

Your right, you obviously know more than a big league coach.

[@danacoleman4007]
