[Very interesting this intervention on the articulation of traditional game. In my opinion could be a solution to play more, more games, in less time, and make baseball more attractive in those countries, like my Italy where it is losing an audience. But I think you need it too. I have done...
my suggestion is 3 innings with 7 outs per inning=
please try to play 3inning with 7 out per inning total out 21. You will have
more grouders
more fly ball
more runners challenging the defense
more pitching to batters
more batters facing pitchers
more catchers throwing
more hits
more plays
in...
n the conference held years ago in Botswana, a variation was introduced for the pitcher about the position of the non-pivot foot that must no longer be in contact with the rubber. This variation aroused a certain interest in me which, in my opinion, can be useful and perhaps would facilitate the...
It is true starting from the rubber is a traditional and wise position. I know her since 1953, but why not ask yourself a few more questions to find new ways to make the formation of a pitcher easier especially for the male category. Have you ever tried it if there is a lot of difference...
Thank you for your interesting objections to my proposal on Windmill mechanics. As a last intervention I show you a slide of comparison between the two start from the rubber by two pitchers in very different situations. My goal was also to allow a softball pitcher to use the set position as in...
Are you sure there's less push? Well then all the baseball pitchers from the set position have less push and therefore a weaker throw. This is not true, it is not lost in speed on pitch (publmed.gov study). After having separated your hands the Windimill mechanic allows you to rotate the...
pitching mechanics for windmill
In one of my previous messages I remembered that there is a difference between baseball mechanics and softball mechanics. I know very well. But let's concentrate on the mechanics of the set position. In Baseball the pitcher separates the hands, then the...
From a study carried out by publmed.gov on biomechanical comparison of the fastball from wind-up and the fastball from stretch to professional baseball pitchers. this are the conclusions:
The pitching biomechanics between the wind-up and stretch fastball showed no statistical differences in...
I know the rules for the softball pitcher well. I would like to ask that it would be possible to introduce the set position, used by pitchers in baseball, also for softball. This solution would make teaching and learning of windmill mechanics easier, and the pitcher would be right on the power...
