"Good habits formed early make all the difference when coaching pitchers or learning how to pitch."
–Former pro Steven Ellis
Pitching mechanics are considered by most to be the foundation of baseball pitching. Without solid mechanics, youth pitchers will struggle with their consistency and control, add additional stress to their arms and never maximize their velocity. ( Rob Hurlbut)
