When can we work on knowledge?
• Lunchtime meetings once a week.
• Bullpens.
• Hitting cages.
• Scrimmages.
• Bus rides to away games.
• Games.

How do we work on knowledge?
• Have a set of basic rules.• Ask questions. What do
you think is Johnny’s best pitch?
• Sit behind the screen during bullpens.
• Have a screen to the side of the plate during scrimmages.
• Ask “why” questions.
• Have your catchers next to the cage during BP and ask them how they would throw the hitter in the cage.
• Video a pro game. Watch footage with the catchers.

report information on pens. Empower them.• Have goals for the catchers to achieve in the
pen.
