Learn, practice, and master the essential techniques used by the most successful pitchers and catchers.

He also covers all the key skills of catching, including setting up behind the plate, flashing signals, framing the strike zone, receiving the ball, blocking errant throws, and throwing to bases. Practice the drills and you’ll soon develop skills like the best pitcher-catcher batteries in baseball.
