Baseball Talk | Small School IL Baseball and the Gateway Metro | YBMcast

We are joined by the Head Baseball Coach at Father McGivney High School in Illinois, members of the Gateway Metro Conference. We talk with Coach Erwin about the teams to watch and who may have the inside track on the conference title and the potential to make a deep run in the Illinois state playoffs. With McGivney making the jump to Class 2A, we’ll discuss what that means for the program and the conference as a whole — and highlight several programs that have been getting it done in Class 2 over the past few years. The competition is leveling up for the 2026 season, and the Gateway Metro is ready for the challenge. ⚾ Follow Father McGivney Baseball: X → @FMCHSBaseball Instagram → @fmchsbaseball 📅 Mark Your Calendars — Prime Sports Midwest Demo Day! 🗓 Saturday, November 15 | Starts at 9 AM 📍 Prime Sports Midwest – St. Peters 🎯 Demo the latest bats, test new gear, win prizes, and register your team for a chance to win custom jerseys! 👉 https://www.primesportsmw.com⚾ Stay locked in with Youth Baseball Midwest—your hub for full-spectrum youth baseball insight in the Midwest. Subscribe and hit that dinger (🔔) to never miss a game-state insight.🌐 More YBM:Website: youthbaseballmidwest.comYouTube: Youth Baseball MidwestInstagram: @youthbaseballmidwestTikTok: @YouthBaseballMidwestX: @YBM_castFacebook: Youth Baseball MidwestPresented by our proud partners:Game 7 Baseball: game7baseball.comPrime Sports Midwest: primesportsmw.com🎥 Production Partner:Red Earth Productions: redearthprod.com
