How to pitch a baseball

How to pitch a baseball App for Android!Baseball is a game of throwing, fielding, pitching, catching, base running, and hitting. To improve all of these areas, you must practice using drills.Batting StanceGenerally, you want a parallel stance with your feet shoulder width apart. Your toes should be pointed inward slightly. This will help your balance. Look at the pitcher with your head level.Fielding the ballMake sure you have good balance by having your feet spread and get down. You don’t want the ball to go between your legs. Always have your glove in front so you can block the ball and see it go into the glove. Bring the ball up to your midsection and throw.PitchingFocus on consistent strikes with good mechanics. This will reduce the changes or arm injury. Don’t throw each pitch with the same speed. Keep the batter confused and their timing off. Learn to locate the ball inside, outside, up and down. Learn to get late movement in your pitches.Throwing the ballGrip the ball with your index finger and middle along the long seams of the baseball with your thumb underneath to give support. When you throw square up your shoulders with your target, move towards the target and throw with a ¾ arm action. Remember to follow through.Base runningYou always want to run in a manner to give yourself the best chance for top speed. For instance, if running more than one base, time your steps so you hit the base with your right foot as you get less arc and can keep a more consistent stride losing less speed towards the next base.Catching Fly BallsIf you’re in the outfield and want to be striding towards your target, you want to be behind the ball. First, you can see the ball and secondly, you can quickly get into your stride to throw to your target. Furthermore, catch the ball above your shoulder with a bend in your elbow. That will help cushion the catch.Here are some tips to keep in mind while you practice your drills that will help you improve your game.Although these tips are the tip of the iceberg when it comes to skills for playing baseball, they will help in your effort in becoming the complete baseball player.How to pitch a baseball Videos from YouTubeNOTE: We recommend using this app with wi-fi because video playing can consume a lot of bandwidth.Your suggestions are much valuable for us so don't forget to provide feedback after using the application.DISCLAIMER : None of the content in this app was created or modified by us.
