Synopsis

So You Want To Learn About Pitching: A Guide for Players, Parents, and Coaches

By: John Petre PhD

The game of baseball is played with nine players on each team. However, one key team player controls many aspects of the game and, in many cases, the success of the team. That player is the PITCHER. So You Want to Learn About Pitching details key requirements for the pitching position. Chapters are designed to be easily used as reference for specific topics. Illustrations, charts, and tables support the material and enhance the understanding of the descriptions.

This insightful guide offers unique and valuable information for pitchers at all levels of pitching. First time coaches and novice players will find it helpful in developing good pitching mechanics and proper skills as they begin their journey in baseball. Advanced players will benefit by being able to hone-in on specific skills, understand in more detail the art of pitching, and improve their performances on the mound. Additionally, more sophisticated information is presented that will help even seasoned coaches understand, identify, and correct their pitching staff's skills.
