Baseball Pitching

I always ask my clients this question "what is the best pitch in baseball?"  I never get the answer I am looking for which is a "strike".  See younger pitchers especially but all pitchers have to first learn to throw strikes before they can learn to throw secondary pitches.  I feel and have seen kids learn this theory backwards and these same players seem to continually struggle throwing pitches in the strike zone.  If you think about it if you have the best stuff around but can't consistently throw them for strikes how much good will it do?  Not much.  Remember a strike is the best pitch in baseball!
