1. It looks to me like you are too far back and too low to see the outside corner.

2. On some pitches, your head moves as the pitch comes in. Not much, but even a little movement suggests improper tracking with the eyes. Concentrate on keeping the head still.

3. A nit pick - try not to look at your indicator, it looks bad. If you need to look at it, make a slight adjustment to your mask with your left hand and sneak a peek that way.

4. Good job of hanging in there and not bailing out on a catcher who let more than 75% of the pitches get by him. Are you sure he's a lefty?
