Play Ball Video Catching Lessons, Drills, and Tips

The catcher is the backbone of a great team. When you take a look at some recent World Series Champions, you will see that they had great leaders behind the plate: Jason Varitek (Red Sox), Iván "Pudge" Rodríguez (Marlins), Jorge Posada (Yankees), and Bengie Monlina (Angels). These players might not have been the best hitters or best players on the field, but they were great leaders.

A great catcher needs to be fundamentally sound in all aspects, from receiving, to blocking, to calling the game, to throwing guys out. At PlayBallAcademy.com we will show you drills, techniques, and many other little secrets of the position to help you improve your game.
