His body language and constant small tinkering/frustration reminded me of a guy I played with in a wood bat league a few years ago. Talented no doubt, but went on a cold streak the likes of which I have never seen. 45 PA 2 walks 0 hits About 35-38 strike outs Towards the end he would spend an entire hour car drive to the fields talking about how he "figured out what he was doing wrong" like the most minute crap ever (elbow wrong angle, etc etc) he bought Ted Williams books and a few more to "diagnose" the probelm. Finally our "coach" who's pregame conditioning before pitching typically involved about a dozen beers until 4am the night before a game basically told him to STFU and just work on making contact. It took a few more games but it finally paid off. Some people when they struggle tend to think too much, and really the solution there is take it back to the basics: see ball, hit ball. Once you can do that again, then you can start tweaking things again.
