Like most hitters go through, I have been in a slump that I cannot seem to get out of. I worked a game yesterday that jut may have been my worst game ever. I couldn't dial in the strike zone, I missed a fair\foul call, I swore at a couple of players who argued. I ejected a bench warmer in the bottom of the 7th inning after taking heat from everyone pretty much all day. It was a mess. I felt absolutley awful. Any advice for getting out of this slump? I need help. Conference tournament is next week and if I repeat the performance from yesterday, I may as well hang up the mask.
When I'm having trouble with balls and strikes usually it's because of timing. Slow down see the pitch and make the call. Concerning calling fair and foul balls. Get in the habit of NOT calling obvious fouls. Everyone can see that they're foul. Now when you have the close one you will wait and either point fair or yell foul. Hey if you kick a call put it behind you and get the next one right. Don't sweat it we've all been there Good Luck and hang in there.
