My 12 year old DD has developed a fear of inside pitches. She won't admit to it but it is obvious to me and anyone who watches her including the other teams. If the pitch is anywhere near the inside corner she jumps off the plate like someone threw a ball of fire at her! The logical explanation would be that she had been hit really hard at sometime, but I don't think that's what it is. How do I break her of that habit? Because once the smart teams pick up on her fear, all she gets are inside fastballs. They used to be afraid to pitch her inside because it was a garunteeded rip down the third base line, lately it's a garunteeded strike!
