Pitcher practicing with cement blocks on home plate

Could use anything and that’s what she uses? Kinda dumb right? Don’t really see the point

Tell me why I’m wrong

Never seen that before. Poor catcher if the pitch misses

Never seen it either, but I don't think the catcher is in a bind if she hits a block. They're not going disintegrate, and the ball ricocheting won't likely hit the catcher.

blocks the sweetest spot of plate.

this forces bama pitches to work both corners, thus limiting a batters chance to get that fat one down the middle.

Only problem, is that if ump isn't giving anything off the corners, she could struggle. But umps are horrible in every sports(officials also), so she will get shite 5 inches off the plate.

We understand that. But why use fricking cinder blocks? maybe something not heavy as hell that could knock someone out.

And here is the pitcher's photo in case you're interested

Heavy as hell is what you want. That way if she hits them, the ball just deflects off to one side.
