Player Etiquette: How You Show Up
What separates talented players from trusted teammates?
In this episode of Fungos & Footnotes, Addison Williams and Coach T break down the silent tests every coach is constantly evaluating — whether players realize it or not.
From showing up early and hustling on and off the field to body language, coachability, emotional control, and respecting the game, this episode dives into the habits that impact playing time, leadership opportunities, recruiting, and long-term success both on and off the diamond.
Baseball is more than mechanics and stats. It reveals character, discipline, accountability, and how players respond when adversity hits. Coaches aren’t just building lineups — they’re building culture.
