Reply to "Thoughts on "Framing"..."

This is all good stuff. Catching coach and I have discussed this.
What many of us don't talk about in framing is how often a young catcher turns a strike into a ball. Thats why they need to learn quiet movements and a slight body sway. Some kids will have their mitt knocked out of the zone because they haven't learned how to beat the ball to the spot. I have also always taught to beat the ball to the spot and then ever so slightly roll the wrist as the ball is received. This shows the ball in halves to the ump. Someone mentioned the drivers wheel, thats pretty acurate.
