I was wondering why we were welcoming a guy who has been here for almost 10 years.

If we all know the pitcher can look anywhere to get the signal, seems kind of silly to have him/her "simulate" taking a signal from the catcher.
The 12U pitcher has only 1 pitch and struggles to get it in the zone somewhere. What signal does she need to take? If the issue is to prevent the "run & shoot" style of delivery, establish a rule to deal with that.

If the goal is to prevent something, address it specifically. Almost as bad as the "one second" touch & go a lot of pitchers employ.

You just admitted that the direct approach (one-second hesitation) doesn't work, so why to you think being as blunt with forcing the pitcher to come to a stop with hands separated would work. Are there not enough things wrong that you need to harp on one of the items that is so simple, a 10U coach can teach it? ![]()
