Getting hit by a pitch can be a very serious matter and at times can be downright disheartening. It should be on the very top of the list of baseball coaching tips. There are two things that I teach younger players right off the bat. No pun intended. One is how to properly get out of the way from an inside pitch. The other thing is how a pitcher should cover home plate when a ball gets away from the catcher. Young pitchers must be taught that when they cover home plate they must stand in fair territory in front of the plate. Please read the previous sentence again. You must give the base runner access to the plate and cannot get in his path. Many pitching careers have ended when a base runner sprinting to the plate have demolished a pitcher who was in his path. I don't want you to be added to the list.

When a baseball player gets severely injured when hit by a pitch, it is a sad time for all who are involved, especially if it is a younger player. The entire ballpark gets very quiet. Suddenly, it doesn't matter what team you are on, what the score is or which team you are rooting for.
Managers, coaches, umpires, players, and spectators, including relatives of the injured player will all be devastated. If at all possible, we want to avoid this.
