Don’t be hating on our down-spin pitchers just because their weight is a lil more forward. Drop is one of the most important pitches in college softball. Especially with 190 ft fences. Ground balls are a pitcher’s best friend!!! 🥎🥎🥎 Let’s go drop ball pitchers! Dare to be different....

My girl is trying to perfect her drop, but she is a riseball pitcher. She wants to be able to master top and bottom of the strikezone

Give drop ball your best effort but if it just doesn’t work after a while, don’t forget you can throw any pitch to any part of the zone. A low curve or low screw can work too.

Totally agree as I ask pitchers not to walk batters and give up home runs. Keep the ball down and trust your infielders!!

This shouldn’t be anything new. The first 2 pitches they should learn is a drop and change. No such thing as a screwball.

When I was in pro ball, even throwing in the mid 90s, I never did this. But I honestly think it’s one of the biggest things that’s going to help me get to 100 miles an hour. One of the most underrated ways to throw harder is to implement cross training. Now, cross training in terms of pitching just means you’ll be using something other than the baseball to throw. For example, you see Yamamoto in the big leagues right now. He attributes a lot of his velocity gains to javelin throwing, and he’s thrown the javelin for many, many years. There’s another pitcher who’s one of the best pitchers in college baseball right now in Japan who’s up to 102 miles an hour and attributes a lot of his success to throwing the volleyball and the volleyball teaching him how to move. For myself, I use a football to clean up my arm action. When you use different implements, it’ll give you a new stimulus. It can clean up a lot of the mechanics that you wouldn’t be able to with the baseball itself. For myself and my training to throw 100 miles an hour, I use all of these implements for my arm action. Now, I have a tendency of forearm flyout where my forearm flies out this way, and so I want to keep it a little bit more directed toward the plate. Some of the best ways to do this is to throw the javelin. Because to throw the javelin far, you can’t be flying out. You need to go straight through. The football as well needs to be straight through. Also, just hitting the volleyball. I love watching volleyball players hit the volleyball because the upper mechanics are so efficient. So if you feel stuck in your training, start incorporating cross training.
