How the Sessions are Different
Erica Hanrahan
When it comes to deciding who should call the game, there are two very different schools of thought—and both have valid points. Before diving into the debate, though, I want to emphasize something I’m incredibly passionate about:
Pitchers need to have full autonomy to shake off a pitch or location call if they feel something else is more appropriate.
This autonomy is critical because pitchers need to own every pitch they throw. If they don’t like a pitch call for any reason, it’s on them to shake it off and get the pitch or location they believe in. That’s how you grow from being a thrower to becoming a pitcher. At the end of the day, the responsibility lies with the person throwing the ball—not the pitch caller.
Investing wisely in quality instruction, essential tools, and physical training programs can make a real impact on a pitcher’s journey. When you prioritize tools and training that build both physical and mental strength, you’re setting up pitchers for growth and long-term success.

Practicing pitching is about more than just throwing pitch after pitch—it’s about building the right habits and mental approach to succeed in games. While it’s tempting to focus solely on speed or getting in as many reps as possible, the real key lies in practicing with purpose and intent.
In this blog, we’ll explore how to create a focused practice plan, the science behind different practice methods, and how to make training both effective and enjoyable for you and your daughter.
