    Outfielders Missing Ball Through Their Legs

    I try to teach my athletes that it always depends on the play. They do forget sometimes but overall I let them know that on plays that get through the infield we usually have plenty of time to drop the knee to ensure it is stopped. The only time they should try to field it otherwise is if they...

    Last chance

    I'm not an expert by a long shot but I have seen enough pitching that to me it looks like the movement of the back leg at the end is taking away some of the momentum she builds at the beginning.

    Who has more pressure

    If the hitter doesn't pressure themself equally in any hitting situation then I'd say you have an issue. As a coach I make my line-up thinking everyone will hit/get on base.

    Eye Training

    In my opinion you would learn how the ball moved in terms of where you would expect the ball to be. If you don't start out with some sort of frame of reference (that I feel like that drill could teach) how do you teach them where to 'guess'? Say a screwball would start at a certain point (where...

    Eye Training

    On breaking pitches I can see the reason it may not help as much. The only thing that can help that is taking a lot of live pitches, anticipating what the pitcher is going to pitch, etc. For a basic way of training the eye to pick up the ball at contact I think the drill I linked to would work...
