A catcher has to be challenged to approach every drill and every bullpen as if it's the most critical game situation he can be in. Remember to work on framing pitches while you are catching pitchers in the bullpen. No Glove - Soft Hands DrillPurpose: This drill develops: hand-eye coordination, proper receiving and framing skills and habits. Materials: 5-7 baseballs and 2 people. Procedure: Do not use a glove for this drill. One catcher squats in normal receiving position. The other catcher kneels about 5-7 yards in front with the baseballs. The kneeling catcher proceeds to rapidly backhand the baseballs at different parts of an imaginary strikezone. The catcher receiving the tosses is trying to catch every ball with soft hands and to stick the pitch. Drop the ball and be ready for the next toss. Start slow and increase in speed once you get comfortable. After the balls are expended, switch rolls. Also: Incorporate framing into drill.Pitching Machine |
