In addition to looking at some pitches before the games begin, I have found it helpful to pop in a video of an old game and call the pitches along with the tv. It helps the timing, and you can work on the mechanics of your platework in the comfort of your living room. It also tones the necessary muscles - if they aren't in shape your game will suffer after 5 innings of work. It's fun, too - my hollering "STRIKE!" scares the cat.
