Mastering the Catch: Evolving Techniques for Catchers The initial movements a catcher makes before receiving a pitch - often called the pre-pitch, glove load, mitt trigger, or hand load — are vital for a successful catch. These movements are crucial for creating the ideal pocket angle and achieving perfect... timing for a fluid reception, adapting to the pitch's angle, speed, and intended location. This foundation begins with the catcher's stance or setup, which is the base of the "pyramid" of receiving. In the past, techniques like the "quarter turn," "wrist roll," or "relaxed hand" were common. As new approaches emerged, catchers began experimenting with different methods. For example, @tflowers25 was known for flipping his mitt completely upside down to generate velocity upon reception. Other techniques included "pancake" loads and "thumb taps." This video focuses on a newer technique we'll call the "cup load." With this method, the mitt doesn't touch the ground but is positioned closer to the inner thigh (at "cup height," which is the bottom of the strike zone). This approach offers several advantages: • The mitt's starting position remains hidden from the umpire. • It stays below the strike zone. • It allows for a quicker move to high pitches. • It can be just as fast, if not faster, than other techniques. Ultimately, the goal is to serve both your pitcher and the umpire by ensuring a clean, effective catch every time.show more

This is great stuff! Thank you for posting. May I ask a question? Does this translate softball as well? I see some catchers doing this technique in college but not a lot. Just wondering.

Funny you mentioned this.I've noticed that some catchers will do this unconsciously after learning to start from the bottom.While I am good with the technique, the draw back I've noticed with it is that it sometimes allows a ball in the dirt to get through the 5 hole if read2late

When the pitch is at or near your left knee/left shin area, it is easiest and most efficient to go thumb down (back hand) and simply turn the mitt back to flat. Too many inexperienced catchers attempt to turn their mitt all the way over to a thumb up position and end up (Cont.)

This is a very geeky video for the catching nuts. If you want to see how catchers frame low pitches and throw from one-knee setups, this Astros C Walker Janek cut-up illustrates both well IMO. Sets the target, takes the mitt down, and then brings it up to catch the ball.

This is a perfect example of “how a catcher receives a pitch can greatly affect what the umpire sees and what they call it.” A lot of people argue that what we do as catchers doesn’t matter and a strike is a strike due to where it crosses the plate. I’m a firm believer (Cont.)

Ty Jerome’s success is attributed to his exceptional perception-action coupling, which allows him to quickly process information and execute corresponding actions. His ability to read the body language of both his defender and the helping defenders enables him to manipulate the defense and create favorable situations for himself or his teammates. So what does this mean for coaches? The fundamental shift is for coaches to stop being "instructors" who teach techniques (such as the in and out or cross jab between the legs), and instead become "architects of an environment" where solutions can emerge. This is done by creating a game-like environment with constraints, such as a one-on-one situation where the defender must start and stay on the three-point line until the offense gets there, forcing the offense to solve a problem with defense present. The core idea is that when using the constraints-led approach, coaches are architects of a good learning environment, not teachers of techniques.

This umpire called a ball that the defensive team thought was a strike. The coach called a timeout after the walk and gathered his infield on the mound. On the next pitch, the catcher slid to the right out of the way of the ball making no attempt to catch it and let it drill the umpire right in the mask. Umpires are fallible human beings. Bad call? Maybe it was. But intentionally letting the ball hit him is poor sportsmanship, dangerous and has no place in the game. The coach, pitcher and catcher should all be ejected from the game. Heck, I might just call the game if I was the umpire and if that is what you are teaching your players, maybe that coach should never be allowed to coach again. What would you do if you were the umpire? How about if it was your child pitching or catching? And what are you saying to the coach if he was the coach of your team?

COACHES: I'm not a fan of the 3 players up and a defensemen back faceoff alignment on the PK. With a clean faceoff win for the PP, it creates a 2v1 with the two high PP players and the inside forward on the PK who is now isolated. It leaves the PK really vulnerable for a quick strike. This goal is the perfect example. NJ wins it clean back and Hughes is able to find Meier right away for the goal. Great job on the prescout by NJ and execution by the players.

Umpire incompetence or a Rulebook/ABS Mismatch issue? 🤔 This pitch may have been both: -a Strike according the rulebook strike zone (3 dimensional/starting at the front of the plate), and -a Ball, according to ABS (2 dimensional/measured at the middle of the plate).

The "geopolitical position" of the vein of Marshall in the left atrium makes it a perfect target for a high-precision missile in AF ablation (knowledge of anatomy and ICE as fundamental pillars in understanding the technique). We summarize the integration of the techniques we use for his alcoholization in a case this week.

So much chaos going on here. Manager and umpire are going at it pretty hard, the umpire says f**k it, goes behind the plate and tells the pitcher to throw the ball. The pitcher throws it, and without hesitation, the umpire calls the pitch a strike, which leads to the dugout emptying and a brawl breaks out

🚨WEIRD PLAY ALERT🚨 Another catcher's interference in the Red Sox at Philadelphia Phillies game. This is different than last night and we have seen this before. This is BOTH catcher's interference and a balk for impeding Marsh's freedom of choice to hit a pitch, and for the catcher stepping across home plate before the pitch. Since the pitcher is throwing a pitch (on the rubber), this is BOTH CI and a balk. This is NOT an RBI, so MLB and Philadelphia will fix that, but the two runners moved up on the balk, and Marsh goes to first on catcher's interference (and this is an E2). Currently there is an RBI credited to Marsh which needs removed, and there is no balk credited to the Boston pitcher Fitts, so that needs added. We have seen this play several times, both in the SEC Tournament and in a Marlins game a year ago, and that post is here:

No other way that this comes down except for help from a pro. The complexity of the job at hand due to the height of the tree combined with the location of the home. There is no room for error.

Umpire John Bacon missed what should've been a called strike 3 to Jazz Chisholm. He made up for it on the next pitch by ringing up Chisholm on a pitch well below the zone and then ejecting him for arguing.

Before there were leg press machines, lifters used the barbell for movements like the oldtime barbell leg press. It was a way to load the lower body in a unique angle and develop strength through a different pattern than the squat.

hi! just wanted to chime in on the discussion this has generated, both the cheating accusations and the technique halodaycare is using, i think dismissing it as "just flashy and bad" is missing the point a bit, similar techniques are situationally by a lot of great aimers 🧵

All the best coaching in the world at the youngest ages is rendered useless if a child hasn’t developed the ability to focus their attention. You can bring the best coach in the world to your child’s training session and if they don’t pay full attention absolutely nothing takes place. Similar to inside a classroom where you can bring the teacher of the year to your child’s classroom and if they don’t focus and pay attention, learning does not take place. So it’s not always the case of good or bad coaching it’s often the case a child’s lack of ability to learn by not focusing on what is being taught. This is especially true for the youngest ages. This video is an example of a 5yr old child focusing their attention, trying to control an object with their feet, the ball. This becomes a mental task, married together with the action of movement, making it a physical task as well. The brain loves to learn while moving. Combining, mind and body, thinking and feeling, this allows the cerebellum, the seat of the unconscious mind, to create a chemical signature of this experience, which is emotions. Emotions are the on off switch for learning. Couple in a parent being present, this becomes a shared experience together, where the child is constantly seeking the parents approval, attention, and praise which creates a chemical electrical process in the body which is emotions. This facilitates, deep learning, and long-term memory, all disguised as playtime. A parent just being present allows for this experience to take place. A child this young rarely starts playing or exercising with a ball without someone being present. Being present and sharing this experience together is key for the learning process to take place. These movements are being stored in the non-declared memory which makes this implicit learning when you do something so many times it becomes natural and outside your conscious awareness. Like riding a bicycle or driving a car.
