December (Fall): Building Your Championship Catcher

Challenge: The degree of difficulty can vary  with pitch location, randomness, and velocity.  

 

Focus:

Game like situation.  Build instincts for the borderline knee-cap strike and dirt ball.  Pitchers have different horizon levels based on the shape of the off-speed pitch.  This is key in anticipation.
