Looking for some drills to help pitchers engage their lower body for power. Have couple of 14 year olds that throw with to much arm i feel and are not using lower half. Thanks for help in advance!
Not a fan of using pitching machines a lot but do think they have their uses. Has anyone had any experience with the Jugs changeup pitching machine? Pros/Cons? Thanks!
Should have said it better but when recreating it we came no where near hitting the shoulder of a player! To do that we had to turn hand and extend away from body and I have never seen anyone do that while high diving in a line. My opinion but no way was it not intentionally done.
Let me start out by saying I think they were both wrong!! However if you want to try something to help you see if anything was intentional try this. Line up 4 or 5 players and go thru line like a normal high five after and game. Then tell one to not put their hand up and see what happens! Made...

Ordered a 34/24 lxt thru rep back in Feb. Rep called and said Louisville was out until April 1 but would send one then. Now Louisville saying they are not making the 2016s anymore so no bat. I know we can get refund but has this happened to anyone else??
Believe i can do this but want to double check! Mary in lineup and reaches 1st. I pinch run beth for mary. Next inning put Mary back in for beth. Two innings later Mary gets on first. I pinch run Beth again and Mary is out for good. Question is it legal to use beth as that pinch runner and put...
xgent, got nothing against players playing for other teams when available! Just thought your normal team might be bothered by all the time you spend with other teams as in an earlier thread you mentioned you were practicing with "4 teams". Just sounds like a good way for conflict to start...
