[Coach Dief @CoachDief]

Someone asked me if I care more about velocity or throwing strikes.

The simple answer is neither.

I care about you getting outs. Doesn’t matter how you do it, you just need to get outs.

Free bases don’t win baseball games.

Pitching should leave you as mentally drained as you are physically drained.

It’s a game of “if this then that” each and every pitch.

Read the swing, the situation you’re in, what you threw the pitch before, what he got out on last at-bat.

Learn how to think about pitching.
