YOUR SHOT AT TEAM USA STARTS HERE.

GameRun's analysis is part of the NTIS application process. And it's much more than a one-time report. Athletes use it to get feedback, run GameRun drills multiple times a week, and track their progress over time.

“When players use GameRun consistently throughout the season, parents and coaches can really see the progress happening over time. That's what makes it so powerful.”

Hitting Analysis

Pitching Analysis

Overall Summary

Strengths

Strength 1: Excellent head discipline and ball-tracking ability, remaining still through contact.

Strength 2: Maintains solid balance and establishes a firm front leg to rotate against.

Areas For Improvement

Improvement 1: Shorten the swing path by keeping hands inside the ball and avoiding 'casting'.

Improvement 2: Improve front side control to prevent the front shoulder from opening prematurely.

Hitting Mechanics Evaluation

Component	Rating	Coach's Notes
Head Position	5/5	Excellent. Head remains still and level from stride through contact, showing great discipline and ball tracking.
Stance	4/5	Athletic and balanced starting position. Slightly open stance is functional and allows for good vision.
Stride & Timing	3/5	Timing mechanism is a simple leg lift which is consistent, but lacks dynamic energy creation.
Balance at Foot Strike	4/5	Lands in a stable and balanced position, ready to initiate rotation. Good control.
Load & Separation	3/5	Achieves some separation between hands and torso, but could create more torque with a more dynamic load.
Hip Drive	3/5	Hips initiate the swing sequence correctly, but the rotation lacks explosive power.
Front Leg Stability	4/5	Front leg firms up effectively, providing a solid post to rotate against.
Hand Position	4/5	Starting hand position is good, high and in a powerful launch spot.
Posture	4/5	Maintains good athletic posture and spine angle throughout the swing.
Staying Centered	3/5	Maintains center of gravity well, with only a slight forward drift during the swing.
Front Side Control	2/5	Front shoulder pulls open early, causing the back side and barrel to drag through the zone.
Swing Mechanics	2/5	The swing sequence is disconnected due to early front side opening and hand casting.
Bat Path	2/5	Bat path is long and looping due to 'casting' the hands away from the body.
Hands Inside Ball	2/5	Hands get away from the body early, preventing a tight, connected swing.

Component	Rating	Coach's Notes
Palm Up / Palm Down	3/5	Achieves a decent palm up/palm down position at contact, but can be more consistent with a tighter swing path.
Bat Extension	3/5	Extension is limited due to the rotational nature of the swing and early casting.
Head at Contact	5/5	Elite head position. Head is perfectly still and down on the ball at the point of contact.
Back Shoulder Drop	4/5	Back shoulder works under the front shoulder appropriately, creating a functional swing plane.
Barrel in Zone	3/5	Barrel gets in the zone but the entry is somewhat steep and the path is not as long as it could be.
Plate Coverage	3/5	Appears to cover the middle of the plate well, but the long swing path may create holes on inner and outer thirds.

Recommended Drills

1

Fence Drill (or Connection Ball Drill)

Focus

Keeping Hands Inside Ball

Execution

Stand facing a fence, just far enough away that a good swing won't hit it. Take dry swings, focusing on keeping your hands tight to your body. If the bat hits the fence, your hands are casting out. A connection ball between the biceps also works to promote this.

2

Opposite Field Hitting (Front Toss)

Focus

Front Side Control

Execution

Take front toss with the goal of hitting every ball to the opposite field. This forces the hitter to let the ball travel deeper, which naturally keeps the front shoulder closed longer and promotes a good inside-out path.

3

Stride and Hold Drill

Focus

Stride Sequencing

Execution

Go through your load and stride, but pause completely at foot strike. Check your position: are your hands back? Is your front shoulder still closed? From this stopped position, initiate the swing. This isolates the rotational phase and helps feel the proper sequence.

Summary & Recommendations

Strengths

Elite Kinetic Chain Efficiency: The pitcher demonstrates a professional-level ability to sequence his delivery, transferring energy seamlessly from the ground up.

Exceptional Balance and Posture: Head and spine stability are maintained throughout the entire motion, even with a dynamic leg kick.

Powerful Lead Leg Block: The front leg acts as a firm post upon landing, effectively halting forward momentum and enabling an explosive transfer of rotational energy.

Areas For Improvement

Maintaining Complex Rhythm: The unique, multi-part leg lift is currently a source of rhythm and power. The primary challenge is ensuring this complex movement remains perfectly repeatable under fatigue and pressure to avoid timing disruptions. Focus should be on maintaining this high-level consistency.

Pitching Mechanics Evaluation

1 · Head Posture

Levelness

The head remains exceptionally stable and level from leg lift through ball release, with no discernible lateral tilt.

Direction

Eyes and head are locked on the target throughout the delivery, with no premature pulling off to the glove side, promoting consistent command.

2 · Leg Lift & Stride

Leg Lift Height

Employs a high, controlled leg lift that brings the thigh past parallel, coupled with a unique rhythmic pause before initiating forward movement.

Stride Phase Distance

Achieves a long and powerful stride, estimated to be over 100% of body height, directed precisely toward home plate.

3 · Balance & Foundation

Balance at Front Foot Strike

Exhibits elite balance at front foot strike, with the head positioned over the body's center of gravity. The lead foot lands firmly, establishing a stable base before the upper body begins its rotation.

4 · Separation & Torque

Lead and Separation

Generates significant hip-to-shoulder separation. At foot plant, the hips are open and rotating toward the plate while the shoulders remain closed, creating maximum torque.

Lead Hand Direction

The glove hand and arm are tucked tightly and efficiently into the chest, facilitating powerful torso rotation without flying open early.

5 · Power Generation & Transfer

Hip Drive

Demonstrates explosive back hip drive, with the back knee rotating down and forward efficiently.

Trunk (Upper Body)

The kinetic chain is sequenced effectively, transferring energy from the ground, through the legs and core, into the upper body and arm.

6 · Landing & Release

Posture at Landing

The lead leg braces firmly upon landing, creating a strong blocking action that stops forward momentum and transfers it up into the ball.

Front Leg — Lockout or Bent

At front foot strike, the throwing arm is in an ideal position (approx. 90-degree elbow flexion), demonstrating excellent timing and reducing arm stress.

7 · Follow Through

Arm Follow Through

The arm follows a full and unrestricted path of deceleration, extending toward the plate and finishing across the body near the opposite leg — a key indicator of a safe and efficient motion.

Overall Grade

9.5/ 10

The mechanics evaluated are of an elite, professional caliber. They demonstrate an extremely high level of efficiency, power generation, and repeatability. The focus for a pitcher with these mechanics shifts from correction to maintenance and physical conditioning to support the high-output delivery.

Recommended Drills

1

Towel Drill (with a focus on Lead Leg)

Purpose

To reinforce the feeling of a strong, bracing front leg and prevent the knee from collapsing or absorbing energy.

Execution

Perform a normal pitching motion with a towel instead of a ball. Focus intensely on the moment the front foot lands. The lead leg should plant firmly, stopping all forward momentum. The goal is to feel the "thud" of the landing and the subsequent rapid rotation of the hips and torso.

2

Walk-in Throw Drill

Purpose

To maintain the feel of linear momentum converting into rotational power and to reinforce hip/shoulder separation.

Execution

Start several feet behind the rubber. Take two or three walking/shuffling steps forward (like a crow hop) into your throwing motion. This exaggerates the feeling of moving your center of mass toward the target and sequencing the rotation correctly.

3

Balance Point Mirror Drill

Purpose

To ensure the complex leg lift remains a controlled and repeatable movement pattern.

Execution

Facing a mirror, go through the initial phase of the delivery up to the peak of the leg lift and pause. Hold the balance point for 3–5 seconds. Check in the mirror for postural stability, head levelness, and consistent positioning of the lift leg. This reinforces muscle memory for the most unique part of the delivery.
