My son pitched in college (NCAA D-IA), and I can assure you that it can get really worrysome at times, especially against 230+ lb. #4 hitters! It’s almost impossible to react to a 110 mph “screamer” coming at your head afyer you’ve just delivered a pitch.

I’ll show your post to hubby.

Our boy has potential both as a catcher and as a pitcher.

Up until last year, I would have guessed catching was his thing.
But then he went to a showcase and was clocked at 83 mph at the age of 14.
Ever since then it’s been “pitcher pitcher pitcher”

I’d still rather have him stand behind the batter.
