The four tools behind the plate.
Catching is the most demanding position on the field. We break it into the four skills that win games — and put a number on each one.
Receiving & Framing
Quiet hands and the right glove path turn borderline pitches into called strikes. We score it by zone and train the misses.
Strikes by zoneBlocking
Smother everything in the dirt and keep runners honest. Footwork, body angles, and reps until it is automatic.
Block success rateThrowing & Pop Time
A faster exchange and a quicker, stronger release. We time the pop to second and chase every hundredth of a second.
Pop time & veloGame Calling
Run the game behind the plate — sequencing, scouting, and the leadership that makes a pitching staff better.
