In this episode you will learn:

2.) How get catchers a full work load when you are understaffed and you don't have a coach to work just with catchers.
3.) The most valuable, often overlooked time your catchers can get game like practice.
4.) A great drill for catchers to get all of their throws in in a short period of time.

Thanks for listening!
