What do picthing coaches look for in high school?

Question

I'm trying out for the school baseball team this year. I throw hard, usually in the upper 70's lower 80's but I sometimes have control problems. Will the coaches over look that or will it be a bad problem?

Answer 1

1. Throw first pitch strikes.
2. Field your position on a bunt play, grounder to first, or backing up a throw to home.
3. Remembering with a runner on second or third that the catcher's signal sequence changes so you don't deliver a wild pitch or cause a passed ball.
I'm not a coach, but that's what I look for when I see a guy on the mound.

Answer 2

Well, they want you to throw strikes when they want strikes. Make sure you have good technique as in experience. Do what they say and you'll do good.

Answer 3

speed power and base running
