The Misconception Of Arm Dominance In Command

Pro Pitching Institute is one of the top 100 baseball blogs on the Internet.

Complicated Command

Many pitchers overthink their arm action, believing it solely dictates where the ball goes.

This over-reliance on the arm leads to inconsistent release points and poor command.

The throwing arm plays a role, but it’s more of a facilitator than the primary driver of location.

The Importance Of A Strong Foundation

Starting with the weight over the back foot allows for a smooth and powerful leg lift without compromising balance.

A clean and controlled glove hand movement sets the stage for the rest of the motion.

The lower body rotates, generates the power, and directs the pitch toward the target.

The arm action then follows naturally, executing the pitch with the power generated by the lower body.

Simple Command

Actual command originates from a stable lower body and a coordinated sequence of movements.

The throwing arm is a tool to deliver the pitch, not the sole determinant of its location.
