Most young pitchers do not realize the importance of both strong legs and stamina. Long distance running is a mainstay for professional pitchers. You should add long distance running to your regimen if you are truly serious about pitching (run 3-5 times a week!)

To be an excellent base runner, you must master the secondary lead. After the pitch is thrown, the runner is to take his secondary lead, to gain ground on the next base as well as gain momentum. It is easy to get lazy on the secondary lead for it takes hustle to get back if the pitch is not hit.

When stealing a base, you need a great jump for second, but not for third. To steal second, put your right foot a couple inches back so you turn and go in only one step. For third, get as much of a lead as you can and only watch the pitcher. You can`t be picked off unless he throws the ball, so don`t worry about the SS and 2B.
