Did the pitcher before him get into trouble quickly or run out of pitches?

Were they just buying time for another kid to have time to warm up? Did they mention anything to him when they brought him in and took him out?

Agree with others, this is your son's battle and you can cheer from the sidelines. 24 hr rule, shouldn't mention anything to coaches about it until after event/tourney.

If he wants to pitch. Dealing with and overcoming failure is a huge component to be successful.

Like others have said. Pitchers/Catchers have to get additional instruction from private lessons. Mechanics aren't typically taught by coaches, or team practice time devoted to them, unless you have a pitching specific coach or organization.
