Outside the Lines is a mentorship program designed to support both baseball players and their parents. We focus on the parts of baseball that happen outside the lines of the field — confidence, mindset, preparation, adversity, routines, player development, and long-term planning.
Players get personalized guidance from former professional baseball player Jacob McCaskey, and parents receive support from Jim McCaskey, who has lived the entire journey as a baseball parent.

This program is designed for families who want:

-Real mentorship for their athlete

-Support navigating the youth baseball world

-Help with communication, confidence, and growth

-More than just lessons — long-term development

-A positive, consistent voice outside of their team or facility

It benefits athletes of all ages and skill levels.

Every membership includes:

-Unlimited text and email communication

-Video breakdowns (swing, throwing, catching, etc.)

-Personalized drills and development plans

-Weekly check-ins

-Mental skills and confidence training

-Baseball IQ and decision-making guidance

-Parent support and communication strategies

-Optional faith-based encouragement

-In-person lessons (if applicable) are separate but integrated into the plan.

Families can reach out via text, email, or video message.
We respond within a reasonable window, typically within the same day.
Coaching calls or Zoom sessions can be scheduled as needed.

Yes — Jacob offers private lessons separately, and those lessons can be used to reinforce the mentorship plan.
Many athletes benefit from combining both for faster progress.

This program is not just mechanical coaching — it’s full-circle mentorship that covers:

-Mindset

-Confidence

-Handling failure

-Routine building

-Adversity

-Game IQ

-Parent support

-Communication strategies

-Emotional regulation

This is the guidance most families never receive, but desperately need.
