HOW LUCK WAS ON MY SIDE WHEN I DISCOVERED THIS GEM OF BASEBALL
PITCHING WISDOM WRITTEN BY LEGENDARY HALL OF FAME PITCHER CHRISTY
MATHEWSON ... AND WHY I'VE MADE IT AVAILABLE ONCE AGAIN
Boy, was I lucky ...
If it wasn't for a search I was doing around the country for a rare
hitting manual (more on that in a minute), I may not ever have come
across this incredible information.
Only then did I realize that although many people have heard about
this book, which is filled with amazing lessons and timeless stories
of how baseball was coached and played nearly a hundred years ago...
... ONLY A FEW PEOPLE ACTUALLY HAVE IT!
In 1912, Christy Mathewson, the legendary Hall of Fame pitcher for
the New York Giants, was asked to put out a by-mail baseball pitching
course titled _Pitching In A Pinch_ or _Baseball From The Inside_
about his insights on the game of baseball from a major league
pitcher's perspective.
This fascinating material, divided into 13 DIFFERENT LESSONS, is a
literal gold mine of information on baseball pitching. It includes
rare strategies and tactics, practice methods and training tips, the
mental game and more! Lesson VI is even titled, Coaching - Good And
Bad.
After reading all 322 pages, I said to myself, "This information is
incredible. I've got to make it available once again. People are going
to be blown away by how profound and _right on_ these teachings still
are."
WHY THIS BASEBALL INSTRUCTION IS STILL RELEVANT TODAY
In a time when baseball was known for its hard-living and
hard-drinking ball players, Christy Mathewson proved that there was
another way for athletes to live. Matty, as he was known by his
teammates and friends, was a role model that every parent wanted their
children to become.
Yet, on the pitcher's mound, Mathewson was a fierce competitor who
became arguably the most dominating pitcher of all time. During his
illustrious 17-year career:
* He led the league in wins four times,
* Won five strikeout titles,
* Won 30 or more games four times,
* Pitched four shutouts and 10 complete games in World Series
competition,
* Won 373 games, making him the 3rd winning pitcher of all-time.
In 1936, Matty joined Babe Ruth, Honus Wagner, Ty Cobb and Walter
Johnson as the first class of baseball Hall of Famers.
MOST MODERN DAY BASEBALL PITCHERS ARE NEVER TAUGHT THIS INFORMATION,
IF THEY EVER LEARN IT AT ALL
Yet it's Matty's instructions and teaching methods on the proper
application of baseball pitching fundamentals that are well worth the
price of the entire course.
In Pitching In A Pinch, you'll learn the techniques used by major
leaguers:
* The grips,
* The finger pressure,
* Delivery motions,
* Throwing different pitches, and
* How to master your control.
Also underscored is the importance of developing your mental skills,
and how and when to use them.
WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THIS CLASSIC BASEBALL INSTRUCTION FOR
COACHES AND PLAYERS OF ALL AGES:
"What an amazing read! It makes you realize that not much has
changed since Mathewson once ruled the roost on the pitching mound.
The things he says, the wisdom of experience he imparts sounds so
fresh and so immediately relevant to the game as it is played today
that it might as well have been written yesterday."
--Baseball parent in California
"Great insights on John McGraw's management skill and the psychology
of the game. This and the special bonus material are highly
entertaining and educational."
--T.P. in Jamaica Plain, Mass.
"Thanks for making this available once again. Well done!"
--Coach John Little, Pennsylvania
This book is one every young pitcher would do well to study. It's an
exceptional piece, written in a way they can understand, from a man
who obviously understands the nuances of the game and what it takes to
win. It's just as relevant today as it was when America's pastime was
still in its infancy.
IT'S NOT ABOUT HOW HARD YOU THROW
Christy Mathewson didn't throw harder than today's pros. But he
pitched smarter. These savvy old-timers knew exactly how to use the
body's natural mechanics to unleash their stored energy at precisely
the right moment.
CHRISTY MATHEWSON SHARES HIS SECRETS IN THIS BOOK.
HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE PITCHERS I have trained have been
dumbfounded at how well this instruction works (when properly
applied), and wonder how they could have ever become a lost art.
Those COACHES AND PARENTS who are students of the game will love his
pitching advice, too ... but they really get pumped when they
discovered how incredibly effective the these timeless techniques are.
Believe me, even if you already think you know everything there is
to know about pitching, get this course because you are most likely
missing several crucial details.
WHAT DID CHRISTY MATHEWSON AND OTHER OLD-TIME PITCHERS KNOW THAT WE
DON'T?
In the modern era of baseball, we tend to believe that we know more
than the men of long ago. But the truth is that curveballs and
brush-back pitches have been around a long time.
You only need to read a couple pages of Christy Mathewson's 1912
mail-order course, Pitching In A Pinch, to realize that we know far
less than the old-timers.
And yet Mathewson -- with no long toss, no strength training and no
formal pitching training -- won more games than Nolan Ryan and Roger
Clemens. He knew the hidden secrets that allow even scrawny guys to
uncork blistering fastballs by used a few simple, easy-to-learn
techniques to actually throw the ball with more success than any of
today's big name pitchers.
