    Hey Dan, I’m a mid-30’s Sunday league player well past my prime days in high school and college…however, I decided a couple of years ago to become a pitcher and to start taking it seriously. I only ever pitched in my backyard to the brick wall growing up, even though it was something I always wanted to do. During COVID I had off work for almost 2 years, and in my boredom decided to build a bullpen in my backyard and start throwing as often as possible. I just wanted to say that even though it seems like your videos are geared towards younger pitchers, I actually find them incredibly helpful and I’ve improved my game greatly. In a way, I sort of am a young pitcher, so maybe that’s why. 5 years ago I was filling in as a middle reliever, barely hitting 50mph, barely getting it in the same quad twice….Now, I can hit about 70(I’m barely 5’7…not a big person at all) I can command a slider, a cutter, a changeup…and a curveball on some days. Anyway, keep up the great work, and I’m looking forward to the book.

    This is literally the first and best advice you can give any pitcher when they're trying to learn how to manage baserunners. The "step off" is a pitcher's secret weapon, safety valve, and means to achieving control of the game. Well done, Dan.

    Such good stuff I have a question if I'm standing on the rubber but I'm not set my hands aren't together I'm just looking into the catcher's signs in the guy takes off from third base can I run immediately at him or do I have to stuff off cuz I'm not set

    Do you need to keep hands together until step off (pivot) foot hits the ground? I'm umpiring and some of the snap throws from lefties to 1st and nighties to third the ball is released before step off foot is even established.

    • @DanBlewett
      @DanBlewett  หลายเดือนก่อน

      i think you're imagining that - it's really not possible for a righty to release the ball before a foot hits. ie never ever seen that in all my years. the body wouldnt even be turned far enough for that to work.
