At least from the 1950s and possibly earlier, baseball scouts have identified five tools on which to evaluate prospective players: Hitting, Power-Hitting, Fielding, Baserunning, andThrowing.
There has always been another factor in the success of exceptional players. Scouts and coaches have different terms for it and they know it when they see it, but it’s difficult to quantify. You can see it as a player seeming to know in advance which way the ball would go, and getting a jump on it, or anticipating what pitch is coming next. It’s the mental game and it comes from a player’s in-depth knowledge of the game and of himself, and indeed, mastery of himself. Without it, the other 5 tools are just abilities that don’t reliably predict a player’s success.
It’s what college and pro scouts are looking for and it is a distinguishing focus of Trosky Baseball.
Coach Trosky coined the term “6th Tool Nation” to reflect this approach to baseball (and to life) that is taught in Trosky Baseball camps and the Online Academy. 6th Tool Nation is becoming the best you can be. It’s a lifestyle, an identity, a spirit of excellence, self-mastery. It’s developing athletes from the inside out. It’s a culture where players and coaches work together, encouraging each other, holding each other accountable to the 6th Tool Standard. Being a 6th Tool Player has nothing to do with size, strength, age, skill or physical tools and has everything to do with the mental makeup and the character of a player: the internal, intangibles. Greatness lies within all players and the 6th Tool Nation brings it out in everyone!
