Catcher's Gear

I posted this picture on Facebook, but I never realized how much easier it is to throw from your knees in catcher's gear. I had always tried to demonstrate in pants or shorts, but I was never able to do it fully without scraping my legs. Turns out catcher's gear really does protect you and the legs are slick so you slide easily. It's great!

After a little practice, my catcher was throwing bullets go second base from her knees. A little proper form goes a long way in catching and I have a whole new prospective.
