Catching Instruction Built on Responsibility and Results

At Pease Baseball Professionals, we treat catching as one of the most demanding and influential positions on the field. Our instruction is built through years of hands-on development with catchers who have learned to control the game, lead pitching staffs, and handle the physical and mental demands of the position.

We focus on the details that matter at game speed. Everything we teach is intentional, repeatable, and designed to translate directly to competition.

Receiving, Blocking, and Throwing With Purpose

Our catching instruction emphasizes clean, efficient receiving that allows catchers to present pitches properly and steal strikes without excess movement. Blocking is trained through controlled, progressive drills that build confidence handling pitches in the dirt while maintaining athletic posture and recovery.

Throwing mechanics are developed to improve footwork, transfer efficiency, accuracy, and pop times. We prioritize clean movement patterns that allow catchers to throw with intent while protecting their bodies over the long term.

Game Management and Pitcher Control

Great catchers do more than catch baseballs. They manage pitchers, control tempo, and bring calm to chaotic moments. We train catchers to understand pitch calling, situational awareness, and how to lead a staff with confidence. Communication, presence, and decision-making are treated as skills that can and should be developed.

Technology That Supports Development

The technology and tools we use exist to enhance instruction, not replace it. When implemented, they provide clear feedback and measurable progress while reinforcing the fundamentals taught on the floor. Data is used to sharpen understanding and accelerate growth, never to overwhelm the athlete.

Coaching, Connection, and Accountability

Our coaches build strong relationships with catchers because trust is essential at this position. We hold our athletes to high standards while mentoring them through the challenges that come with the role. Leadership is modeled daily, not demanded.

Beyond the Gear

Catching develops qualities that extend far beyond baseball. Accountability, toughness, communication, and resilience are part of every session. Our commitment is to develop catchers who lead with confidence, compete with purpose, and carry those traits into every area of their lives.

“We develop catchers who control the game, not just the position.”
