Owners manual for the mental game of baseball and softball, May 10, 2007
This book was recommended to me by Coach "Hutch" of the University of Michigan's Lady Wolverines, and I've not been disappointed. I highly recommend this book for both coaches and players (over 16).

One pitch at a time: the only way to play. , October 23, 2004
I want to both congratulate and thank the authors for this penetrating and truly functional book. It joins insight to instruction, and has applications far beyond baseball. It breaks the mental aspect of the game down just as one would analyze a swing, and offers concrete methods for correcting flaws typically viewed as abstract. The information in this book is essential to playing the game.

Best baseball sports psych book I have seen, March 10, 2006
I teach high school sports psychology and have used this book as a text on several occasions. I now make it mandatory for all of my softball and baseball players as additional reading. Their feedback has been nothing but positive regarding performance enhancement. I strongly recommend this user-friendly text for any sport!

Heads Up Baseball, August 2, 2000
This will be short and sweet. I coach a college softball team. This is mandatory reading each year for my team. We study it as a team. I believe the mental aspects of the game are of utmost importance, usually being the difference in championship caliber contests. This book not only addresses with an easy-to-read approach, it provides exercises, that if taken seriously, give athletes a means by which to measure their mental progress. I give this book my complete endorsement. By the way, my team won the junior college national championship. I relate this not to brag, but rather to substantiate this book. We defeated a team (twice) that was physically our superior. We beat them mentally.

Ken and Tom write a gem on the mental game of baseball, November 21, 1997
By A Customer
I feel compelled to comment on this well written and insightful reference because Ken and Tom put together a truly masterful work on the "game within the game". Never have I read a more thorough and complete account of the mental game of baseball (I just wish I had it when I was playing!). The mental issues and techniques they write about are a must for everyone from the casual fan to the serious player. The two have even designed blocks of information specifically aimed at coaches in an easy to find and read format. Included in the book are mental excercises and discussions with many baseball legends.

Excellent for high school and up., October 22, 1998
By A Customer
I've given this book to my two teenagers to read and they understand how to apply the principles. They enjoy the book and I devoured it as a parent. It is one of two books I keep on the desk at all times. The other one is on mechanics. I am ordering more of them for other coaches and parents.
