Brad Hennessey pitching mechanics

[WebTastingRoom]

Laflippen, it's Quaff from LTP. Thanks for pointing me to your videos. This does illustrate the issue perfectly. Oddly enough, I picked up a Brad Hennessey ball at school charity auction last week, and it's sitting on my desk as I watch this.

Note: Quaff and I had been discussing the proper role of the glove-side in pitching mechanics, which is why I asked him to look at this slo-mo clip. Hennessey swivels his glove into place, approximately over his stride foot, and brings his torso forward to meet the glove as he approaches his release point. A properly controlled glove-side helps him get all of his momentum directed toward the target at the release point.
