If you’ve followed Dingerz Nation for a while, you may have noticed something changing.

That’s intentional.

Dingerz Nation started as a youth baseball magazine, built to celebrate the game, the players, and the community around it. As the baseball world and the way families consume content have changed, we realized something important. Youth baseball needed more than articles. It needed a voice.

So we’re evolving.

Dingerz Nation is becoming a youth baseball media company and community platform, led by real youth players and focused on real conversations, real resources, and real experiences from the field.

Introducing the Dingerz Nation Podcast

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Dingerz Nation Podcast, hosted by youth baseball player Jordan “Thunderbird” Sanchez.

This podcast is different on purpose.

Instead of adults talking about kids, this podcast gives kids a voice. Jordan leads conversations about youth baseball from a player’s point of view, covering topics like training, mindset, tryouts, confidence, equipment, team culture, and the things nobody really explains to players but everyone expects them to understand.

You’ll also hear interviews with coaches, trainers, local baseball businesses, and community leaders who support youth baseball, all through questions that actually matter to kids and families.

Our first episode is going live soon, and it’s just the beginning.

What’s Changing at Dingerz Nation

Along with the podcast, Dingerz Nation is shifting toward something bigger and more useful for families.

At the heart of this new format is our free youth baseball directory, starting in the Houston area and expanding beyond. This directory will help families find:

Training facilities and batting cages
Coaches and instructors
Tournaments and teams
Gear shops and baseball services
Community resources that support youth players

Businesses can submit listings for free, with optional upgrades for featured placements and sponsorship opportunities.

We’re also expanding into:

Community spotlights and interviews
Educational guides for parents and teams
Downloadable resources to help organizations grow and operate better
Local sponsorships that directly support youth baseball content

Why We’re Doing This

Youth baseball can be amazing, but it can also be confusing, overwhelming, and noisy. Dingerz Nation exists to make it clearer, more positive, and more player-focused.

This evolution allows us to:

Put kids at the center of the conversation
Support families with real, practical resources
Highlight businesses that genuinely help youth baseball
Build a stronger, more connected baseball community

What’s Next

The first podcast episode drops 1/4/2025. New directory listings are being added regularly and will launch soon. Community features, interviews, and resources are rolling out over the next few months.

If you love youth baseball, you’re already part of Dingerz Nation.

Stay tuned. Follow along. And get ready for baseball, told by the people who play it.
