Best-Kept Secrets of Major League Pitching

Rating:
Summary: Helpful and Informative
Review: I've coached little league for a few years now and feel that overall I do a good job, but when it comes to instructing pitchers I'm not much help. I was never a pitcher myself and dont give great advice-mostly "throw strikes and stay positive". As far as mechanics-I'm not much help.

After reading about the book in our local newspaper and being told by my son that he wants to pitch this year I thought I'd check it out. It was a good idea. It's very informative-I especially like how he has photos of major league pitchers demonstrating the ideas he's writing about. The drills and the discussion of the different grips and pitching strategies are going to give me something to work on with my son and the other pitchers this year-if it ever warms up. I'd highly recommend it.

Review: This book is easy to follow and has helped my coaching of young pitchers this winter tremendously. The pictures show exactly what I should teach and the book covers everything from grips to when pitchers should throw certain pitches to how to get hitters out. I would think any pitcher or coach at any level from little league to the Major leagues would benefit from this book. All of us coaches should have it!
