S1E7 - Is the Change-Up Dangerous?


Listen Later

Sport Kinesiologist Angel Borrelli and baseball coach/blogger Joe Janish follow up on Episode #6 and further discuss the change-up and how it can be both dangerous and safe to throw. Related to the same topic, Joe and Angel cover the subject of whether a pre-teen ballplayer with small hands should use a two-finger or three-finger grip when throwing a baseball.
