Watching OSU and FS. OSU pitcher looks like HE to me without a HE finish. I mean, she seems to have a straight elbow all the way through to delivery. So what am I seeing?
OSU pitcher, HE?

Yeah her delivery looks odd. Reminds me of a medieval trebuchet. Very nice change-up. Not a motion you see very often. She is tall maybe that makes her look a little strange with that delivery.

I love that you compared her motion to a trebuchet! Every time I try to explain the futility of the wrist snap to someone, I use the trebuchet as an example -- the loose sling at the end of the lever. I get a lot of blank stares...
She is certainly straigher than most from the top through 9pm and maybe not the best way of getting there, but by delivery the arm has gone through a whip, is bent, brushed and classic IR through release and follow through.

I'm not surprised that parents don't want medieval coaching methods.

But I got a great deal in this guillotine and I'm just waiting to use it the next time someone doesn't tag up on a fly ball.
