Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Demonstrates the ability of good mechanics in pitching.
Review:

I have read many books many book on pitching and found that Bob Shaw's book is basic, fundamentally sound and his theories work. I have been a high school baseball coach and have attended many clinics and have heard many coaches speak on the subject and I still refer back to Bob Shaw's book.

Bob Shaw explains his concepts so that every person from the beginner to the pro can understand and benefit from his expertise. His use of pictures is terrific. I think there are at least 2 pictures on every page.

I have read books by Tom Seaver, Nolan Ryan, and Tom House and have heard Tom House speak at many clinics and I still think that Bob Shaw's book is the best.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Timeless fundamentals
Review: I've used Bob Shaw's book for the past 16 years. First as a player in high school, then in college, semi-pro leagues, and eventually as a Little League pitching coach. There are many books on the market that teach pithching, but Bob Shaw's illustrations breakdown the entire pitch in intricate detail making it easy to comprehend, but more importantly, it helps the coach teach one of the most important and difficult positions on the diamond. Bob Shaw also gives physical training and preventative medicine tips to help keep the pitcher healthy; however, he does not stress weight training enough. If you are interested in just learning the basics, or want to pursue a professional career, this book is for you.

Rating: 4 stars
