The CleanFuego Starter will help you better your ability to grip and throw a baseball. The Fuego Starter is terrific for helping young athletes transition from a full palm grip to a two or three finger grip. It will also help athletes visualize the intent of backspin and the axis of a baseball. BASEBALL THROW TRAINING BALL! The Fuego Starter has white stitching and red marking to help emphasize the visual of the wobble when thrown with inefficient spin. It also has the same feel as a baseball because it is hand stitched leather. The leather has been weatherproofed to minimize water logging. BASEBALL PLAYERS! With the Fuego Starter, the baseball spinner helps train proper grip and visualize axis. The overall foundation of CleanFuego is to help athletes throw an efficient 4-seam fastball. Improving your spin efficiency on a 2-seam orientation is counterintuitive, as that inefficient spin is what’s needed to create the “running” or “sinking” action that you want with a 2-seamer. BASEBALL PARENTS! You only need ONE Fuego Starter to train multiple pitches! You can seamlessly train your curveballs, sliders and changeups with just the Fuego Starter, not multiple balls for multiple pitches. BASEBALL COACHES! Your goal is to HIDE THE SIDES with this spin baseball training aid. Avoid Fuego wobbling in the air when you throw it. Stand close to start and get a good feel for the spin and spin direction. Start at about 30' and work back from there. Get the FEEL. Interchange between a Fuego and regular baseball. Spin the baseball just like you’re trying to spin the Fuego. Blend the feel during this training. Pay attention to your grip and finger pressure. Are you even on the ball? Are you gripping down the middle of the ball? Where are you putting your fingers on the laces? Where is your thumb? The CleanFuego Starter is manufactured in China, but all orders are shipped and fulfilled through our HQ in Rockville, MD.
