Was working with DD today and out of the blue, she pitched some balls with her eyes closed and did pretty well. Is this a common practice drill that experienced pitchers might use to help them focus on their mechanics and not the strike zone?

Like Jim my students do this once in a while for the same reason he stated. Not a bad way to practice. Had a girl who actually did it in a game and the umpire came out and gave her a warning. She was scaring the other teams hitters.
