    It's all here....

    Posted on Twitter today. Can it get any more simplistic than this? Totally vanilla, yet all the important stuff is there. So clean. Do this!

    Pre Pitch Foot Slide Issue

    I have been working with a kid who is having some issues with her foot slide. We are using the slide like Java advocates for many of his students. She is having a tough time letting her drive foot center naturally and instead forcing it a little. It's to the point that the drive foot will either...

    9/3 spin

    I have been doing some pitching with a taped ball. One kid that I have been working with is having a tough time catching the whip and getting the 1/7 spin. She gets its occasionally (30-40%), but consistently gets a 9/3 spin. Anyone experience anything like this? What could be going wrong with...

    Lexi Davis

    Any thoughts on these mechanics? Does she have no overlap at all? And if so does she have a lot of untapped velocity in her? I believe she is in the mid 60's now. She is a naturally big kid, 6'2"......

    Some Swing Thoughts.....

    High school season just wrapped up and I was able to do a lot of swinging the last few days. I spent a few hours with a tee and some balls and did a lot of thinking. I came to a few conclusions and wanted to bounce them off of some people hoping to get some input. 1. Doing the Braun drill is a...

    Defending the Bunt with a Runner on Third

    I was looking for some input on how others defend a bunt with a runner on third base at the high school/16u/18u levels. Let's assume the other team has a tendency to bunt in this situation and have the runner at third not break for home until the fielder throws to first. My dilemma would be a...

    Horseshoe Change

    Does anyone have any pointers on how to slow the horse shoe change down some? I love the pitch and have a few pitchers that throw it well. I currently have a kid who can't slow it down more than 6-8mph and constantly leaves it between the belt and letters.........I was hoping this sounds...

    Rear Leg Swings

    I was looking for some thoughts on rear leg swings. I remember seeing a vid of someone hitting front toss standing on only the rear leg throughout the swing. I believe the purpose was to promote the proper rearward barrel turn and hip action. Anyone have any experience or guidance on this subject?

    Hand path drills

    Any hand path drills that anyone likes in particular or had some success with? I did the Braun no step drill today with a group of kids and I thought it was useful. I felt removing the legs from the equation was helpful. Some kids who constantly dropped barrel then swung looked a lot better and...

    SnF Drill

    Reading the thread about crankermos daughter got me thinking. At one point he said he started with "the move" and then incorporated SnF. Is stretch and fire just a drill or also a phrase to summarize some components of the high level swing? A few questions regarding the SnF drill.... Is it a...
