Have her work hard on using 3 speeds; fast, slow and an off-speed. Try not to throw 2 in a row the exact same speed. Make sure the wind up for all three looks like a fastball wind up.
Any hitter can adjust to seeing only two speeds. NO BATTER can deal with 3 speeds and the pitcher going back and forth constantly. It is almost impossible to train a hitter to deal wth three.
When they cannot use the pitcher's motions to let them know what speed the ball is coming, they have to wait and watch it travel part way to determine how fast it is coming THIS pitch. THAT TAKES TIME THEY AINT GOT!
