"Coach Logan is working with my son Kyle who is 11 years old for about a year now. As a result Kyle, who is the starting pitcher on his Bay Area travel ball team, has improved considerably in pitch speed by over 20% and accuracy to over 70% for the season. Logan also taught Kyle a change up and a two-seam in addition to his 4-seam pitch and how to use his pitches to strike out the batters. Coach Logan is excellent in connecting with his students, motivating them to improve and loving the sport. Kyle's batting has also significantly improved in both form and in getting great hits. I wholeheartedly recommend Coach Logan for anyone who wants to bring his baseball skills to the next level! Kyle loves working with him!"
"Coach Logan has helped me become a much better ball player than I was before I started doing lessons with him. He has helped me become a better pitcher, and he has helped me become a better hitter. Without Coach Logan I would not be the same player that I was months ago. He always listens to questions and explains things if I don't understand them at first."
"Coach Logan is great with the kids on our team. He has a good coaching style that the kids respond to well. Preparation, mechanics and the mental aspects of the game."
"Coach Logan has been instrumental in helping my son to develop his baseball skill set. Most importantly however he has focused extensively on active lifestyle choices such as eating right and staying healthy, mental focus and understanding how to not only prepare physically but mentally as well. Well rounded multi tiered approach to the overall wellbeing of the athlete."

Players will use Rapsodo during training to get instant feedback on swings and pitches throughout the clinic. Instead of guessing, athletes see exactly what's working.
This helps players understand what changes are actually producing better results instead of just guessing.
Pitchers can see how their stuff moves and make adjustments based on real data.
Rapsodo will be used during drills, bullpens, and live work to help players make quicker adjustments and better understand their game.
The "sixth tool" represents the mental and psychological aspects of baseball that determine whether talented players succeed or fail at the highest levels. While scouts evaluate five physical tools, modern baseball recognizes this critical dimension encompassing mental makeup, baseball intelligence, and psychological resilience.
Research shows that for every ten first-round pitchers drafted, only two will start a full season in the majors. The sixth tool includes strategic understanding, split-second decision-making, character traits, work ethic, and emotional resilience—what scouts call "makeup."
Drawing from elite programs and professional organizations, we implement structured frameworks for mindset development, emotional regulation, and process-over-outcome thinking. Players learn visualization, develop routines of excellence, and build leadership skills.
Studies show cognitive factors explain 27% of variance in hitting performance and 32% in pitching ERA among minor leaguers. Players who master the sixth tool maintain consistency under pressure, recover from setbacks, and adapt to new competition levels. The mental game sharpens all other tools.
HEAD COACH
My name is Logan Wortman. I grew up in Walnut Creek where I played ball at Northgate High School before continuing my journey at Diablo Valley College. After 2 years at DVC, I earned an opportunity to play at Sonoma State University.
Following my sophomore season, I was invited to play in the Western Canadian Baseball League, where unfortunately I tore my UCL and underwent Tommy John surgery. Currently on my rehab journey, I'm channeling my experience into coaching.
I created Sixth Tool Baseball to enrich not only physical ability but most importantly the mental side of the game. It's crucial for athletes to understand mental approach, handling in-game challenges, and overcoming mental roadblocks—especially coming back from injury.
In addition to private coaching, I am involved with the baseball program at Clayton Valley Charter High School, where I work with players on both the physical and mental development that drives long-term growth.
I'm looking to work with players who are dedicated and willing to go the extra step in becoming six tool athletes. Hope to see you out there!
