hes kinda pushing the ball, i used to do that and i took some lessons and i stopped it. u really need to teach him that pretty soon cuz it can really hurt his arm.
the kid has good mechanics. the only thing i would maybe change is his arm path. i play infield and pitch, so my coach was telling me that when i pitch i have to let my arm path get long, and when i play the field to short arm it. it looks your son short arms it. im jus tryin to help because it looks like hes got potential at such a young age. if u would like to see him really suceed at baseball. get him some lessons and when he hits the 12/13 age consider aau baseball, whick is like club teams.
(cont)2. also when he goes to throw the ball try to get his hand to extend towards second base instead of him cocking it up behind his ear. Hmm that sounds a little confusing.. maybe ill make a short video of it for you? PLEASE DONT BE MISTAKEN BY THIS AS A MEAN COMMENT IM JUST TRYING TO HELP YOU
(im 13 btw and i pitch for my team that i play on)
hey hes got nice mechanics now but there are 2 things that i see could help him out a lot to get a little extra umph on the ball while throwing
1. when he brings his leg up make sure that it comes straight up and that he doesnt swing his lower leg back behind the plate, because he is in kids pitch now a lot more people are going to try and steal if they know the right time to steal, because his leg breaks the plane of the rubber he has to go home on the throw.
I'm 9 and i got measured @ 38 mph with a Bushnell. True?

one thing my coach told me was to pretend there was a shelf behind you and when you throw pretend like you are picking it off the shelf
