tips for low strikes

[SE Minnestoa Re]

There are no magic answers but experience. Here are a couple of things I look for:

--The position of the catcher's glove. If she turns it up, it has my attention. It doens't mean it can't be a strike, but it is an indication
--The height of the batter--tall girls generally have taller knees
--the motion of the ball. If it is dropping, the catcher can catch it lower than if it is not
