AboutWillie Ansley Jr. Expertise I can answer all questions on baseball instruction from hitting to baserunning,pitching and defense.I can also deal with the mental side of the game. After all baseball is 90% mental.
Experience I was the Houston Astros #1 pick in 1988.I have been doing private instruction and coaching select baseball in the Houston,Tx. area since 1996.
Past/Present clients I have worked with such players as Carl Crawford(while at Jeff Davis High)first pick in second round of the 2000 MLB draft.Also Vince Blue(Lamarr High) a 10th round selection.John Hale(Lamarr High) committed to Rice Univ.Eric Iland(Lamarr High) a top prospect in the 2007 MLB draft.
Question First of all I would like to say that my mom, Sylvia, remembers you. She graduated from Plainview High School in 1987. In 1990, she got married to my dad and moved to the Houston area and I thought it was weird how you live here too.
It is so cool to find out that you taught Carl Crawford. He is an excellent player.
Anyway, my question is: How can I stop throwing side-arm? I try to not do that, but it gets hard and I get used to it. Please help me figure out how to stop.
I have been playing baseball since I was 4, I am now 11 and dream of playing for the Astros one day. Thank you for your time.
