Pitching Basics by Lisa K

Setup and Delivery

  • toe the rubber find a tall, balanced and relaxed position

  • feet are shoulders width apart with either both on the rubber front and back or one foot on the rubber front with the stride foot behind the rubber

  • hips and shoulders should be stacked evenly

  • start with weight on the pitching load foot, shift weight back slightly with hips “sitting” over heels

  • load foot down and drive forward towards the catcher

  • while driving reach both arms forward and lift stride knee up

  • allow hips and shoulders to open remaining stacked

  • complete circle following a straight line to catcher.

  • land and release the ball

  • transfer weight into front leg

  • stand tall & stay balanced throughout the pitch



Grip

  • find the backwards letter "C"

  • place index, middle and ring fingers across the seams with thumb opposite middle finger

  • stay begins tge ball

  • create friction between the fingers and ball seams to create spin
