Most youth pitchers don’t break down because they’re weak.
They break down when workload and recovery stop lining up.

Drake Davis, someone to watch 👀 great mechanics, but that aside, ready out of the box operating system (swing adjustments, strategy, pitch recognition). Everything automatic. Super coachable, great student, great family!

A lot of gold pitching nuggets in this... 👇

The hitter’s swings, foul balls, and takes give you a good idea of his approach. What do I mean?
Fastballs:
Is he late on the FB? Where are his foul balls? Pulled foul? Or over the opposite dugout? Or, is he taking them?
So, if late, this means that we pitch FB in, up, and expand down. If he’s taking them, he might be sitting strike offspeed.
Also, if he’s late on FB, be careful throwing a get me over strike offspeed pitch. You will be doing him a favor.
A good question to ask is, where can we go where his barrel can’t square the ball up?
Offspeed: is he pulling them foul? Are his takes good or bad? Does his swing look comfortable on the offspeed? Where does he chase?
A good tidbit to follow is that we should chase bad swings.
The best hitters in the world can make the adjustment pitch to pitch.
Most players, especially at the HS and below level, can’t do that. So if he takes a bad swing on a pitch, throw it again. If he takes it, throw a different pitch, then go back to bad swing pitch.
Another tidbit is that if the hitter fouls a ball straight back to the backstop, be very careful repeating that, because he just missed it.
Many more nuances to this but this is basic food for thought.

Ding… 🛎️ Ding 🛎️ Ding 🛎️ !!!
The Tigers struck out the least as a team in June (of all season) and they had the best offense in baseball that month.
** So nice to see a MLB Team finally Make that significant connection! See video…
Striking out hurts your offense and loses games… I’ll stand on that mountain forever. Got to put the ball in play with 2 strikes. Hard preferably, yea of course, but even softer hit contact and miss hits find holes and can be tough plays for D. But Hard “right turns” and “left turns” with a K don’t do that. No pressure put on opponents.
Develop a solid 2 strike approach and fight tooth and nail to survive! Move the lineup, pass it down. Frustrate the pitcher and defense. Run up pitch counts of opponents starters. Put up crooked numbers in multiple innings. All of it… why? Because it wins.
And it’s beautiful baseball to watch!

Absolutely correct. KIDS must learn pitch sequencing. It's not hard. Coaches, educate yourselves on @EVPerryHusband ... i may make a suggestion on a certain count but that's it, my players called 95% of their own games.
26 Sep 2025
Only coaches that should be calling pitches in the dugout are former MLB catchers that have a clue. Or, at the very least, a former big league pitcher.
This isn't a video game. Doesn't work like that. It's like standing behind a surgeon 10 feet away telling him how to do his job.
The problem isn't the game calling itself, it's that the kids these days have had every pitch called for them since they were kids.
I called pitches since I was 12 years old. Did I know what I was doing? Not even close. Experience teaches, not analytic dudes that never played.
Orgs need to teach kids how to call games. Not do it for them. It's a job validation/security thing for them.
Game goes well? It's the coaches, game goes bad, and it's easy to blame the pitcher or catcher.
I'd personally love to sit behind these guys and teach them a thing or two about it.

And remember A LOT low back hyper extension disc grinding happening with the 'rear leg' hitting done without proper core stability.

I have a thought tonight. Many tragedies lately and things seem to be accelerating.
Some of you might disagree with this, but that’s okay. You don’t have to agree. This is your right as a human, it’s a choice. I don’t believe that anyone should be forced to believe something someone else does.
I’m a Christian, and I believe everything happens for a reason. Even bad things, or tragedies.
Shootings, murders, death, sickness etc.
My thought, in my belief, is that God is in control of ALL things.
He allows these things to happen in order to change them, or people around them. His goal is to bring people closer to Him.
Why? I’ve often wondered why he would allow a 3 year old to get cancer, or allow a fatal car wreck, etc. why?
A couple years ago, after my playing career ended and I was searching for a new version of me, I pondered this question deeply. Maybe I’m right, maybe I’m wrong. This is my hypothesis.
As humans, we are selfish, we are controlling. We want to control our lives and even others people lives around us, but, God has a purpose for us here on this planet. If we do this purpose, and then have faith with His plan while believing that Jesus died for us, we will make it home.
As Christian’s, our ultimate goal is to get to Heaven. That is where we will live eternally with our Savior. We must do His purpose for us here.
I used to believe that baseball was my purpose, and I couldn’t have been more wrong.
It is always our choice to turn to Him. He gave us free will for this purpose.
His thoughts and ways are higher than ours. We will never truly understand until we meet him face to face.
I believe that everyone has a general, Godly purpose here on this planet. That is to help others reach the Kingdom in their own way.
Have a good night everyone.

I haven’t made any videos lately I’ve been too busy having fun!
Here’s a video I made today explaining the difference between Swing coaches and Hitting coaches.
You can’t learn how to hit just Hitting balls off of a tee!
Most of the #gurus are not Hitting coaches and don’t know the first thing about Hitting.

How does the Pelvis ACTUALLY rotate open in the throw?
No different than the gait cycle, the pelvis swings open because Lateral Bend coupled with the lordosis of the Lumbar spine induces an axial torque on the Pelvis driving it in the opposite direction
Focusing on “back leg tension” or vertical shin to better “fire the hips” is like looking at the wheels spinning on your car and assuming that must be what’s propelling it forward on the road
The pelvis is rotated from above - the legs provide kinetic and potential energy and act as amplifiers of more proximal movement around the spine
Trying to use the back leg to open your pelvis is like using the Flintstones car - go get yourself a real engine

What if I told you your kid’s .210 batting average is lying to you?
In youth baseball & softball, it’s one of the least useful stats for measuring progress—yet parents still obsess over it.
Here’s what to track instead if you actually want more hits. 🧵

Even MLB stars get this wrong sometimes.
That’s why legends like @shegone03 @qualityatbats @EVPerryHusband @BarryBonds @MLBNetwork analysts, & top college coaches talk approach over average.
