As a former minor league coach and batting practice pitcher, I attended a morning meeting with the players and coaches where the team manager announced a new pitcher would be joining us tomorrow. He added that the guy had a very severe stutter and anyone that mocked that guy would suffer severe consequences. Later that summer the pitcher came into the coaches locker room to tell one of the coaches something, but nothing came out. The coach said, “sing it to me” and it was perfect communications. The pitcher eventually ended up with Major League playing time.
My daughter had a stutter while she was on anti-seizure meds. She would get stuck on c/k sound. She started sin ginger her reading until she changed meds. The neurologist didn’t believe it was the meds causing the stutter, but he agreed to switch her meds. It worked.
