When Does Your Pitcher Throw Change-ups?

 

Hey There Friend!

Having great command of the zone and confidence with a hard pitch (fastball or movement) and something slow (change-up or off-speed) sets any pitcher up to have real success!

So, when should your pitcher use her change-up against hitters?

Take a quick (2-minute) listen to my thoughts on this subject up above!

I think almost every pitcher could improve her effectiveness by using her change-up more frequently once she can throw it for a strike!

  • How much does your pitcher use her change-up?
  • Is she as confident throwing it as she is her fastball or other hard pitch yet?
  • When do you (or her coach or catcher) like to call the change-up?

I'd love to hear what you think my friend!

Have a great weekend and I will be in touch again next week!

All My BEST,
