Customer Reviews

Great Book for younger players

I think that this book is the most complete book about pitching that I have read. It covers the aspects of pitching better that any of the other books I have seen. The only part not written well is the section on conditioning. I thought Nolan Ryan's book did a better job on that aspect of pitching.

Pitching - Beginning to End

This book covers all phases of pitching. It starts with mechanics and ends with strategies. It includes conditioning, proper technique, dos and don'ts, and many words of encouragement to all who read it. I highly endorse it for everyone (both players and coaches at all levels) from the Little Leaguer right through to college.
