What separates elite pitchers from the rest? It’s not just mechanics — it’s mindset.

In this powerful episode of the NeuroVision Edge Podcast, Dr. Aakash Shah sits down with Sid Lacy, founder of Lacy LLC Baseball, former college closer, and top-ranked JUCO pitcher in California. Sid shares the hard-earned lessons behind mental toughness, visualization, and mechanical precision — and how they transformed his game.

You’ll hear:

• 🔥 How to build resilience through failure and adversity
• 🧠 Why elite pitchers train their brain as much as their arm
• 👁️ How visualization and self-adjustments make or break careers
• ⚙️ The “small tweaks” that unlock big velocity and consistency
• 📱 The drill Sid gives every pitcher (that costs nothing — just your phone)

This is required listening for any serious athlete, coach, or parent who wants to go beyond the surface and understand the science behind elite pitching.

In this powerful opening episode, Dr. Shah sits down with Dr. Don Teig, a world-renowned Sports Vision Optometrist who has worked with the New York Yankees for over two decades, and consulted across elite organizations including the Florida Panthers (NHL), multiple MLB, MLS, NBA, and NFL teams.

Together, they explore a critical—and often overlooked—concept in baseball performance:
👉 Does having a consistent visual target improve a pitcher’s command?
👉 What happens neurologically when a catcher isn’t giving the pitcher a steady focal point?

Dr. Teig brings decades of clinical and field-tested experience to the conversation, breaking down how visual-motor connection, eye discipline, and target acquisition play pivotal roles in elite pitching accuracy. Whether you're a pitcher, catcher, coach, or parent, this episode delivers game-changing insights into the neurovisual side of performance.

Topics Covered:

• The science of visual targeting and its role in command
• How elite pitchers maintain eye discipline
• Why inconsistent catchers can undermine performance
• What MLB teams implement—and how youth and college players can benefit
