"I have tried to listen to a lot of people when it comes to trying to make the bat and ball game as simple as possible and as athletic as possible. When I first met Tony, it was the most revealing and refreshing approach to visual acuity and performance based teaching throughout baseball and softball that I was introduced to in 50 plus years of the game."
