Yep we baby him and his arm we restrict his pitch count to 50-55 a game then he gets yanked. NO NO NO curve balls just the different fast balls, change ups, breakers, sliders, just the basic pitches. He is practicing knuckle balls which is HILARIOUS to watch! He is changing speeds now a lil better and really giving batters a run. Funny how it all comes together FINALLY!! I mean he has been pitching for 4 years now (very restricted) and it seems you just wait for them to gain control of themselves. He now is finally able to place the ball and hit the corners and make some sense of all this throwing. He got pitching lessons the last 3 years and still has a pitching coach but with all the tournments we havent been using him much. He gets off but after listening to a pitching coach I can even tell whats off and tell him. It just becomes second nature. Most importantly he is enjoying himself and had fun with the game. He plays 3 sports and Baseball is his least favorite but happens to be naturally good at it His favorite to play is football ugggggg then basketball which I like thanks for looking at pics and your post! Nice to see fellow YT'ers likeing sports! I am an obsessed freak!
