What are some training games you can play on the LPT? Consider the 10-10 skill test. Your goal is simply to throw 10-strikes in a row as measured by the leather "memory" pitch target. Once you successfully demonstrate consistency, push the target back to a more challenging distance, and try again. This way, the game will boost your accuracy in short order.

Another way to go is to play 7-11. Pretend you're pitching to a right-hand hitter, and throw seven out of eleven strikes to the inside "lane" of the plate to him. Switch things around, and pitch to a "lefty." If you make seven out of eleven strikes to the inside "lane" of those pitches, you can push the target back as you did in the 10-10 game. By mastering these games and skill tests at close distances, you will gain confidence and improve your muscle memory--no more frustrating "0 for 10" attempts to play big league pitcher right off the bat.
