No project I've undertaken has meant more to me personally than editing, authoring and compiling Battery Charged. It was a desire to understand pitching mechanics in detail that first got WebBall involved in motion-capture technology, and it's my role as a pitching/catching coach that I find truly enjoyable. Of course, over the year, I've realized that pitching is so much more than the physics or kinetics of throwing. And that's what has me thrilled to be offering this to you now - because it covers the full spectrum of conditioning and strategy along with the mechanics. Also it is the first book I know of to combine both positions under one cover - for reasons that become obvious the more you dive into its pages. Enjoy. - Richard Todd, WebBall
