Here’s the question Dr. Patrick Cohn answers this week:Do you struggle with throwing down to 2nd base or simply throwing balls in a baseball game?
Jason said:“I grew up playing baseball my whole life. I get nervous when I even just think about throwing and when I try to throw hard at my target I throw it in the dirt or over the person’s head. How do I get over this?”
