That would be kind of you. I was also asking John Thorne if he had a copy of this manual. This is a nice find

Love seeing the term "Striker." This is important to help understand the rules with bunting. If you present the bat to bunt, and the pitch is outside the strike zone, the batter is NOT required to pull back the bat. Pitch is to be called a ball. Why? Because the batter did not strike at the ball

When hands are small, a 3 finger grip is perfectly fine, & they will often cut the ball a bit. But when they are able to throw with a 2 finger grip, you need to enforce fingers together, not split, & work on aligning the spin with the player's natural arm slot. Red & whites help make this easier 3/3

I'd always have my players warm up with red & whites. Way better method than flips to see your backspin, especially when their hands are big enough for a 2 finger grip 2/3

Even a moderate electric shock could be dangerous to some folks, such as those with afib and pacemakers
