Your Glove Hand Starts the Pitch

Your throwing hand delivers the baseball, but your glove hand starts the movement that makes the throw possible.

When your glove hand fails to do its job, your throwing arm often must compensate.

The Glove Hand Leads

From a balanced starting position, your glove hand moves across your body.

As it moves, your hips respond, your stride develops, and your throwing hand prepares to deliver the baseball.

Each movement prompts the next.

Your glove hand isn't simply pulling your glove out of the way. It's helping organize your entire delivery.

When Your Glove Hand Fails

When your glove hand drops under your armpit or stops moving too soon, your sequence can break down.

Your front foot may land early, your hips may rotate late, and your throwing arm must hurry to find the target.

That's compensation, not command.

Get Better Results

Let your glove hand cross your body before your stride finishes, let your hips lead, your front leg respond, and your throwing hand finishes the motion.

Don't start your pitch with your throwing arm. Start with a balanced starting position and let your glove hand do the work.

The Pro Pitching Institute teaches you the glove-hand movement needed to deliver the baseball to your target with uncanny regularity—or your instruction is FREE. No questions. No hassles. No hard feelings.
