#21 - Overcoming SLUMPS on the Baseball Field | The 9-Hole Podcast
Call it a slump at the plate, or the yips when you throw - the LAST thing you want to do is have it spiral into a hole you can't dig yourself out of before the regular season ends.
Obviously, different things work for different people. Different dudes may get out of slumps differently than others. I once had a teammate in AAA slump so hard he took a shower with his full uniform on - cleats and soap and everything to wash the bad vibes off.
Just because you're slumping, doesn't mean your mechanics are trash. Sometimes the worst thing you can do is do too much.
Are you swinging at good pitches? Are you getting good pitches to hit? Do you have an idea of what a plan is?
THOSE are the things you need to look at to start getting out of a slump, or getting one of those bad boys TAMED.
Slumps can give out multi-year deals, too.
My teammate got out of that slump by the way.
