We learned it from this guy video long time ago! th-cam.com/video/95QMRKLaZOw/w-d-xo.html

@@californiamonkeytails8534 That you so much!!! I'm sure it will help a lot!!!!!! :D

He is 13 and 3 month old, he is no longer throwing curveball and changeup, instead he is throwing slider and sinker along with 4 seam fastball. He never had issue with throwing since he started pitching at age 10. Even though he pitched 6 innings 100 pitches in few games this year, no pain or soreness at all.

End of his 11U season, he was at around 55, end of his 12U season 62-63, now he is playing 13U and mid 60s. He is pretty small kid, always the smallest in the team he played with. Most 13U throw 70 plus some are 80 already. But velocity isn’t everything as you may know.

this kid can start to work how to throw a Forkball he got a lot of guts to throw a slider at his age

Thank you!

Thank you!

Haha

Thanks

He is big fan of Josh Hader and Hader sent him a brand new cleats with his autograph few month ago.

That is freakin awesome! I love Josh Hader!

He’s just throwing a 1-seam it moves vertically a curveball actually moves side to side and sometimes up to down. I’m 11 and I can throw a curve that drops at a 45 degree angle and drops about 7 in

Stfu and quit hating this kid is putting in the work to be great, build others up instead of tearing them down👍

@@Swooziebeats I'm not hating I'm stating facts, he's screwing up his arm with some of these pitches. 11 is way too young to be throwing curveballs. The dad should take him to an actual pitching coach

@@kitdatkat Hi, college player here. Its a common misconception that curveballs hurt your arm. Throwing a curveball *incorrectly* hurts your arm. The only pitch that inherently can cause tommy john is sliders because of the stress on the elbow. The main cause of tommy john for young players is not doing strength training, which causes the arm to tear because it's not strong enough to hold together after the throw. I do agree that he needs a pitching coach though, but that's only because every good pitcher should see one at least once.

No that's not true lol. Knucklecurves I suggest at about 12, and about 15 you can throw a 12-6. Knucklecurves are meant meant be thrown like a fastball, except keep your thumb down.

Facts

seriously brb I'm going to kick my dad in the nuts

*Your dad must have done quite a few good things for you too - but our culture, our tv and our cartoons NEVER EVER teaches kids to be Thankful FOR ONCE.* *But yeah, you can take the lead and do it for your son if your "dad didn't do it for you".*

@@khaleefax9553 All I said was "I wish my dad had done stuff like this with me", but way to write a whole storyline about it

@@VicInNocal It's the mindset - and it's the brainwashing that TV and media has effected the way we think. In an ideal world, when the thought cross your mind that "you wish your dad had done this for you", then this thought should've been immediately trumped by a counter thought of all the good things that your dad did for you and all the efforts he put in for you by sacrificing many thing for himself.

Thanks coach!

no. it will not lead him to tommy john. sliders, where you have to get around the side of the ball and create elbow tension is where problems arise. a proper curveball (which hes throwing in the video) is where your fingers lead in front of the ball and pull downward so the ball has downward spin as opposed to upwards spin. when you attempt to make the ball have sideward spin and have violent wrist rotation, like snapping off a slider, that is what causes increased elbow tension, flexing the ucl much more than a fastball.

@@ianhertzog4905the fact that you have to twist your arm to the right before releasing the ball if you're a RHP, if you are a LHP then you would have to twist your arm to the left before releasing it. You have to have the right mechanics or else you will get injured. Sliders are also very bad for your arm.

Wrong, a PROPERLY thrown curveball, not slider, actually puts puts less strain on the arm than a fastball

Lol. If he throws with the proper mechanics he will be fine.

@@Boomer-rj7uv i throw a slider and i can say if thrown properly it really is not that bad for your arm

Working on it.

Thank you!

hes 11 years old :|

@@spencerhamilll4804 That’s something I understand! I have 8/9/10/11u kids that locate exceptionally well. I intentionally pointed this out, because I noticed this in 2 other video’s he posted. The mechanical issue Affects velocity and accuracy. You want to fix it early, before all of his mechanics rely on it! Those of you who pitched, should notice it! If you don’t see it please feel free to ask, instead of point out the obvious!😁

Many held back kids are playing in the PG tournaments. Watch the 12U PG Fest Game on TH-cam, none of them are really 12 years old :)

@@californiamonkeytails8534 similar problem here in GA. I believe GA PG tournaments changed rules last year to limit held back kids to play in younger age group.

Yes it is
