My son was taught how to pitch inside at no cost. When he started pitching at 9U I told him not to worry about hitting batters. I told him if he hurt a hitter that's the hitter's problem. My son has never had a problem pitching inside. In a wood bat tournament this weekend he (fifteen now) walked off the mound smiling after sawing off/breaking a fourth hitter's bat, "Just call me Black and Decker." I also taught him how to come up and in and hit a batter without getting him in the head.

That whole thing sounds pretty insane to me.

And very dangerous as well.

As your son rises to the next level - I would recommend a
change in approach - or a suit of armor.

Sounds like him - and/or his teammates - are going to need one.
