Command and control are two more examples of pitching vocabulary that can cause confusion. At the NPA, we have unique definitions for each. Command is used to describe the ability to consistently execute a certain pitch type, or as a ‘command pitch’ that a pitcher can trust to locate whenever necessary. Most developing pitchers start without a command pitch, until they can consistently harness a fastball. But by the time a player reaches the majors, he usually needs to have command of three different pitches to keep hitters off balance. Control is what we use to describe a pitcher’s ability to locate a pitch at any given time, as stuff will vary throughout the season or during a game. A pitcher might have exceptional control of his curveball today, but when he is faced with a jam and runners on the corners, he might go to his command-pitch fastball that he knows he can locate low in the zone. Kevin Goldstein has offered other definitions of command and control, with control representing the ability to avoid walks, and command defined as locating pitches within the zone, and hitting specific targets. I think that Kevin’s definitions are outstanding, and like the NPA versions, they describe two unique aspects of pitch execution. Ideally, we can use Kevin’s definitions in conjunction with the NPA’s to better describe the ability to locate a baseball.

Nolan played 26 years of big league ball, he was always one of the higher paid player’s, then he started a food company that produced "Nolan Ryan Beef," a company that has done very well in some spots. Later he bought a Minor League Baseball Team that sells out most of the time, and no telling what else Nolan has done with his money.

Somewhere between $1 and a billion. Other than that none of your biz. Why don’t you call him and ask.

I threw my arm pitching this yeear and i want it to get better

I hate to say this but the best cure is time and therapy. Depending on what you actually did or the damage you did you may have no choice but to have surgery.

My arm slips out of the shoulder socket from time to time. I can’t lift it too high and throwing is difficult unless I really warm up. You should do the ice/heat thing. Wear a sling for a while and let it heal. If things get worse, see your doctor.

Im a starting pitcher for the varsity team at my high school

you get a tire and set it up against a tree, you start at ten feet away and throw slow just to get your accuracy down, move back 3 or 4 feet and throw l little harder. keep movin back once you get the accuracy down. lots of pitchers can throw really hard but it doesent matter if u cant locate your pitches. look at greg maddox. he only throws about 84 mph but has been successful for 20 years.

i want one preferably under 300.00$ and i want to be able to batting practice and most importantly field fly balls with it

You have to hit the batting cages to work on your swing.

As for fielding fly balls, no machine is going to compare with going out with a group of friends on a weekend and just playing some ball. A machine can’t give you the kind of fielding practice that a game will.

which is more important in a baseball game pitching or hitting?

Yes. Just look at tonight with Cliff Lee. Great pitching can always beat the best lineup, like the yankee’s lineup.

yes or no

and why

Anyone who is paid to preform is considered a professional. Yes!
