Shoulder alignment breaks down the role of alignment and the negative consequences of misalignment.
Proper Shoulder Alignment
When a pitcher's shoulders are properly aligned with the
target, shoulder alignment creates a stable foundation for the entire pitching
motion.
Shoulder alignment allows the lower body to effectively
engage and generate power, which is transferred up through the kinetic chain,
initiating the throwing motion.
Proper alignment allows the glove arm to move freely and
correctly, acting as a guide for the throwing arm and contributing to a
synchronized delivery.
The Consequences of Misaligned Shoulders
Conversely, when a pitcher's shoulders are out of line with
the target, the mechanics of the delivery are compromised.
Misalignment prevents the lower body from properly engaging,
forcing the pitcher to rely more on their arm for power, which leads to a less
accurate and less powerful throw.
A misaligned upper body limits the glove arm's movement,
hindering its ability to guide the throwing arm and impacting the overall
fluidity of the delivery.

Proper shoulder alignment is essential for a pitcher to
achieve an efficient and powerful delivery, leading to improved accuracy and control
