The Role of Intent in the Pitcher-Batter Duel

In this episode we dive into the concept of skilled intentionality with regards to the pitcher-batter interaction. We explore how intention shapes a player's behavior and performance, the importance of perceiving relevant information within the game (becoming attuned) and being calibrated is the basis for successful performance outcomes. We also discuss practical training strategies and the nuances of guiding player intentions.
