“The coach on the field” is a phrase that people in baseball say about the guy behind the dish. The catching position is one that takes an entire episode to really dive into to explain the complexity and responsibility for the hardest working guy on the field.

In this episode we bring on Todd Coburn, better known as “The Catching Guy” on social media who has amassed a huge following online and in person.

Todd travels around the country working with catchers from coast to coast. He breaks down the catching position like no other on this podcast.

We talk about framing pitches, blocking, drills, handling pitchers, building a relationship with the umpire, and about everything else that comes with the position.
