I’m a huge Tigers and Yanks fan. But I’m an even bigger fan of Trev since he has this channel and is interacting on a personal level with us! He truly cares about growing this great pastime!
Nice job, Trevor. Can you point us in the direction of what drills, or practice routines we should use to achieve tunneling? Is it just a feel thing? Thanks for all the info you put out there.
Thanks, Trevor great inside about tunneling, Tunneling is crucial for a pitcher, but it is easier said than done because it takes work to create muscle memory, take your bullpen sessions seriously have a plan for the day, what pitches you want to work on today and what arm stot you want to work on, think you are in a game, knowing what pitches to throw from the same arm slot especially if you have different arm slots is also important. Remember work with a purpose DONT WASTE A BULLPEN.
Set your pitching view to the same as your batting view, and you’ll start to see how god damn good changeups are. They went from my least favourite pitch to not using a pitcher that can’t throw one. It also explains why Nolan Ryan was so good in The Show 19.
As a hitter, I look for the pitcher' release point, the window. That enables me to determine the possible pitch and to stay on the ball longer. However, a well disguised tunneled pitch certainly makes it tougher on the hitter.
Great tip, so many pitchers are easy to read in where their pitches come from. And if you really want to mix it up and confuse the hitter...thrown one over the center field wall!😂
Some day down the road i'd love to hear you talk with someone about sidearm and submarine pitchers and how someone decides to try it and an intro to how pitch movement differs with extreme arm angles.
Great video. Can you do more videos on strategy based on what the better is doing or telling you. What works well if batters are hugging the plate, etc.
How do you work on tunneling? Video from the front or back I am guessing. I would love to be able to use this in my own pitching. Any tips are great thanks!
I am trying to find the book that you recommend (on one of your videos where you are in the outfield talking with a guy as you are in the Mexican League) about setting up hitters. I cannot locate the video. Can you please help me.
I believe it was the match up video against Votto where you overlayed two pitches to demonstrate this. I think it demonstrated better seeing the pitches on overlayed camera to really demonstrate how well this works
Perry Husband is the OG of all these concepts and released a number of books in the 2000’s. Hitting is a guess and effective velocity. I wonder if Trevor got this from Perry or Driveline
The thought of deceiving a hitter with the fastball at the top of the zone and dropping a curveball is great but can tunneling work with painting the bottom of the zone with fastballs then dropping a curveball that hits the dirt that the hitter might think is a fastball that paints the bottom of the zone again making them look like a fool?
Mahle makes his living up in the zone including fastballs because he has more movement on his fastball up in the zone. If the hitters don't swing at it Mahle gets hurt unless the fastball is up in the zone but still in the strike zone. If Mahle don't get that pitch it is going to be a short night for him
Am I crazy or is the audio more quiet on this channel than others? I swear I always have to turn it up compared to other channels I watch. Otherwise, great content, keep it coming.
We're so fortunate to have a current professional pitcher willing to give us insight like this. Thanks for what you do, Trev.
My pleasure!
Playing MLB the Show 20 as yourself would be an amazing way to illustrate this concept and how you approach it! Please give it a shot!

trev can you do a vid on pitching after giving up a homer and how you calm down mentally

This was really interesting
I like the drawing. It helps me understand it better
Great analytical breakdown. Thanks Trev
This was so great Trevor - keep em comin.
Great video, Trevor! I love this kind of content!
Glad you enjoyed it!

thanks trevor, always looking for ways to improve myself on the mound. always rooting for you!

Kevin C splitters are better
Great explanation professor Trevor!
Can you let us in on your arm care routine and how you maintain health during on and off season? You the man Trev!

that helped a lot thanks for the trev
trevor you will for sure have a career well after baseball as a premier pitching coach / entertainer
Thank you so much this answered all my questions & drawings are very good but they’re good enough
Great tips. Thanks Trevor!

Cool video dude.
Just started watching
Oh, like a whisk.
What’s the difference mechanics wise on how that tunneling happens vs not ? Thanks

Yes. You need to layer videos over each other.

Can you give drills/exercises for keeping the front hip closed?
Is tunneling always effective or is it something that hitters can realize you’re doing and make an adjustment to?

Making all of your pitches come out of same tunnel will help all pitch effectiveness.
What’s with the ring on the wedding finger on the opposite hand???
I think you need to make another video on tunneling, maybe with some videos of at bats

use some of these pitches on kepler bud 😂😂😂

How would a hitter be able to fight against “tunneling”?
John Satterfield pray
Carson Mercier facts. As a hitter I hate Trevor Bc he’s teaching pitchers to get us out haha
By hitting the ball
Sit 1 pitch and don’t miss it if you get it IMO
