Not to beat a dead horse with this towel issue,but I see no problem with it.If you watch when they show Cat pitching from a view behind the plate,the towel comes into view well after the pitch is released and is on the opposite side of her pitching arm.The towel is visable on her right side and the pitch is released from her left hand.With the batter focused on the ball coming out of her hand,there is no way that towel can be a distraction to them.I assume that is the reason there are no questions concerning it from her opponents.
