As an umpire, the very first thing I saw was that he was pulling the pitches. That tells me the catcher thinks the pitch was a ball. Why should the umpire disagree? John Winkin taught framing as thus: Low pitch, catch the ball with the mitt horizontal. High pitch, catch the ball horizontal. Inside pitch, catch the ball with the glove vertical. Outside pitch, catch the ball with the glove vertical. Framing refers to presenting borderline pitches so the umpire has the best view of where they were. It does not mean pulling pitches, which is what the catcher in this video is doing just about every time, especially with the low pitches. In some cases, this catcher is going to cost his pitcher strikes by pulling pitches that were strikes to begin with.
Wrong...you dont meet the ball...you BEAT the ball! Go PAST the spot then "pull" back onto corner or up if went futher down and catch it ON THE WAY BACK to strike zone! Not A to B and catch...go A and past B to C...then come back to B for catch onway back to point A!!! Edit to add: Always keep thumb parallel and never turn it down to ground or also known as BACKHAND an inside pitch! Keep thumb OUT to side and BEAT geeting it under then ball and catch it as you bringing it up...THEN STICK IT! STICK CORNERS YES BUT HAVE GO BEYOND THE PITCHES THATS OUT OR LOW AND PULL THEM BACK IN BUT AS I EXPLAINED WITH THE A,B,C POINTS!
Most the time the ump can’t see your glove, however, he can see your elbow, so when you frame a pitch, it’s more about keeping your elbow as still as possible, rather than moving your glove quickly into the strike zone.
I love catching for two Seasons I catches every game no brakes I have watched alot if this guys vidoes and it helps alot ,I have improved heaps and I am going to keep practising getting better thanks for the vids👍👏
I caught today against mid to high 80s for the first time and I had three past balls that were really high and inside Any tips for catching wild pitches
I need the tips cause I’m going to have to catch since two of our catchers our on vacation and the other one blew his arm out/ had something pop in his elbow pitching
Molina will always be the best at receiving and from an umpires prospective Barnes glove moves a little to much, sometimes an umpire will call pitches based on what the glove is doing Barnes is good but if you compare Barnes glove movement to Molina there is a big difference!
John Jacob if you don't know what I'm talking about maybe you need to know. It's simple stuff just knowing when to go get pitches vs allowing it to get a little deeper .
John Jacob right he was commenting on basics and then talked about how some guys get more borderline pitches than others. Knowing how to receive borderline pitches . Fast balls are easy get your thumb under it and be strong but on breaking pitches or anything with movement there are some other tricks
Great video. I have a channel for my son who is 15. He has been trained by former MLB catcher for the past two years. I'm videoing all of the lessons and hopefully its helping people out. Check out the channel and comment the videos and let me know what you think. We are always learning.

Ryan Robbins thanks for that I didn't know that and as a catcher in high school you just taught me something I don't know
This catcher wasnt pulling the balls. He was presenting them

What are some of your favorite first pitches that you saw in the Bigs? also do players ever fanboy out if there's a famous person in the stands
I am a starting catcher and this really helped me step up my game.
Ethan Jankowski do u have to be big to be a catcher?
Zae_bandzz no I’m one of the best catchers in my league and I’m really short
I’m 5’2 115 and I’m a starting varsity catcher
hardest ball to receive is low and outside the glove knee
For sure!!! Thanks for watching our videos!
Tbh it’s the inside knee for me
@@qu4troent391 yeah same but sometimes it’s low outside the glove knee but it’s a mix
Fax

Any tips for catching wild pitches
Yeah wild pitches suck just need to be able to slide and meet them
Thank u 🙏🏻 it was so helpful
My friend, (starting catcher) sent this to me because I’m a beginner and just started catching a few weeks ago. Haven’t tried this yet but will soon.
Watch Gary Sanchez ..
Are you literally Gary Sanchez or are you an impersonator???
Awesome! Love this demonstration
Really helped I’m in the country watch list for my high school baseball
Do a video talking about giving baseballs away and how it works at different levels
Ryan Okmin definitely
@Butt fart Stew it was 2 years ago man
The guy in the video looks like A-Rod!
I’m pretty sure that that’s Austin Barnes from the dodgers

On first base all you have to do is catch lol its not that hard thats why the big mean play it
leery hard when u have a shit infield

That was awesome got my kid good a bad ass
What all my coaches always say “you have to be able to catch the ball to be a catcher” lol 😂
Thanks for this I’m trying to become a better catcher
Good luck!
Antonelli Baseball thank you!!
I need the tips cause I’m going to have to catch since two of our catchers our on vacation and the other one blew his arm out/ had something pop in his elbow pitching
What mitt is that
Molina will always be the best at receiving and from an umpires prospective Barnes glove moves a little to much, sometimes an umpire will call pitches based on what the glove is doing Barnes is good but if you compare Barnes glove movement to Molina there is a big difference!
Molina is definitely great! Thanks for watching our stuff and commenting!
I am only 10 and these tips helped me so well that if I go pro i'll half the cradet to ou if i'm a catcher
Awesome good luck to you!!!

Daniel Clark lol what? Shut up
John Jacob if you don't know what I'm talking about maybe you need to know. It's simple stuff just knowing when to go get pitches vs allowing it to get a little deeper .
Daniel Clark this is a video of the dodgers catcher being commentated on by a former mlb player. I think they’ve got it covered lol
John Jacob right he was commenting on basics and then talked about how some guys get more borderline pitches than others. Knowing how to receive borderline pitches . Fast balls are easy get your thumb under it and be strong but on breaking pitches or anything with movement there are some other tricks

I play catcher I’m 11 it’s very hardddd
I noticed when the pitch is released he flips his glove down and then back up. I’m sure there is a reason behind this. Could you explain please?
Most catchers do it to keep relaxed. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Antonelli Baseball great video. Where can I purchase something like that?
This is very good I’m trash compared
