THE BALANCE
Can be done either from the windup or the stretch, from the full distance to the plate. The idea is to have the pitcher hit his apex in the leg kick, and then stop and hold his balance for a few seconds (time varies with each different pitch), then finish the delivery. If he loses balance, he does not throw the ball. If he holds his balance well, all his body weight will be able to go towards the plate, and he will also have a smooth delivery as well.
This is a major factor in improving control problems.
