Pitching,

Guide to Commanding Location

Learn why location command trumps velocity, then discover how to develop it!

What happens when every MLB team has a bullpen full of pitchers that throw 95mph? Every pitcher below the major leagues thinks velocity is the secret key to success.

But anyone who’s been around the game knows it’s not. Straight velocity (with the exception of the very top velocities at every level) will consistently get rocked by good hitters.

So what separates the elite from the masses if it’s not velocity? Is it movement? Pitch selection? Smarts? Command?

Coach Dustin Pease puts it this way:

The location and execution of the pitch you throw is the most important aspect of getting the hitter out. Pitching accuracy is the greatest attribute a pitcher may possess in terms of success.
