![]() I think pitchers dont pitch inside because they are afraid they will get thrown out of the game if they hit a couple of batters. Plus batters just let the ball bounce off of their protective gear and off to first they go. Baseball needs to do something about batters leaning into the pitches.

![]() Biggest problem is that too many pitchers don't have enough command of their pitches to come inside. If you can pitch inside effectively, you've got it made.
How many times in today's game do you see guys getting a hit on an 0-2 pitch? If I ever gave up a hit at 0-2, I came out of the game. I was taught to waste a pitch at 0-2 to set up the next pitch. If you've gotten the low inside corner with the first two, the next one was high outside. Or, if you've worked to 0-2 on the outside corner, you bust 'em in on the knuckles. Of course, that was 30 years ago..... ![]() |
