Musculoskeletal soft connective tissues are commonly injured due to repetitive use, but the
evolution of mechanical damage to the tissue structure during repeated loading is poorly …

The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between variability in pitching
kinematics and consistency in pitch location. Data were collected for 47 healthy baseball …

Background The association between ball velocity and elbow varus torque has shown
differences when evaluated within a single pitcher and within a cohort. The impact of …

Background: Inefficient energy transfer from the pelvis and trunk has been shown to
increase compensation at the level of the shoulder. Kinetic chain sequencing of the core …

Background: Understanding the relationship between the temporal phases of the baseball
pitch and subsequent joint loading may improve our understanding of optimal pitching …

How do skilled players change their motion patterns depending on motion effort? Pitchers
commonly accelerate wrist and elbow joint rotations via proximal joint motions …

Context: The trunk/pelvis is an important link between the upper-and lower-extremities.
Therefore, assessing strength of the trunk and hip muscles that control the segments is …

Purpose To determine the relation between medial elbow torque, as measured by wearable
sensor technology, and adaptations of the medial elbow structures on dynamic ultrasound …

The association between breaking pitches and elbow injury remains nebulous.
Biomechanical studies have shown that throwing a fastball rather than a curveball results in …

Background Although shadow pitching, commonly called “towel drill,” is recommended to
improve the throwing motion for the rehabilitation of pitching disorders before the initiation of …
