My son has been taking pitching lessons from Scott at The Bullpen for several years. Proper throwing mechanics are the upmost concern during his pitching lessons. Scott has always been very conscious of my son’s age (started going to Scott when he was nine), and ability before moving to the next level. Gentry recently started in his strength and conditioning classes. In addition to the focus on skills required to understand and excel in the fundamentals of baseball, a strong effort is directed to help improve the physical strengths that are needed to progress to the next level. Scott has keen knowledge of the physical demands that baseball has on the body, which allows his training to offer the best results. Gentry comes home exhausted after training, but excited and motivated for his next session.

Our son took at least one pitching lesson package each year with Scott from age 9, and as he got older, strength and conditioning training specific to pitchers . Scott stresses pitching mechanics ,and not surprisingly, using proper mechanics each and every pitch prevented injury and made it easy to throw strikes and hit his spots. Results speak for themselves. Morgan was the only freshman Varsity player( and youngest at 14) on the largest 6A high school in the state and lettered all four years. He was recruited by more than 20 junior colleges in and out of state and graduated from Eastern State Univ. on baseball scholarship . He was subsequently recruited by Arkansas State University in Jonesboro Ark. on a full baseball scholarship . Scott could quickly and easily correct mechanics if Morgan slumped. Scotts program certainly helped our son develop into a solid D-1 pitcher.

Scott was instrumental in developing our son, Jackson, into a college-ready pitcher. Not only did he teach Jackson proper mechanics, Scott also incorporated physical training designed specifically for the throwing athlete. This combination kept Jackson healthy throughout high school, and (so far) throughout his journey at the University of Kansas.

Scott Glanz has been coaching my son in all aspects of baseball, with an emphasis on pitching, for three years. I cannot speak highly enough about the teaching my son has received from Scott, as well as the improvement to his skill set in that time. I knew that my son had the potential to be a good pitcher, but he had not been given ample opportunities to do so until he began working with Scott. After just a handful of private pitching lessons, Josh was pitching very well, by implementing the skills and corrections that Scott had given him. Now he is one of the best pitchers on his team. My son begs me to take him to Scott for a lesson when he feels like he is struggling on the mound, and it is amazing to see how Scott can fix him in a short amount of time. The firsthand professional experience that Scott brings to the table, in addition to his ability to teach what he knows to students of all ages, is second to none. My son has had several coaches throughout his years in competitive baseball, but none of them have had the impact on him that Scott has.

Frequently asked questions

What is your typical process for working with a new student?

We offer private instruction in all aspects of the game Pitching , Hitting , Fielding for players 8 yrs old and up.

All lessons are conducted by SENIOR level coaches...

For new students we highly recommend a one hour initial evaluation prior to signing up for a series of lessons. The goal is to evaluate each player in terms of their skill level, their physical abilities and personality. This evaluation also gives the younger student time to get acquainted with the training environment and coach before committing to a series of lessons.

All private lessons purchased within a "package" are 30 minute sessions:

Students may schedule back to back sessions covering two different skills such as pitching and hitting.
- All session/s must be paid in advance
