Good advice. That's part of the game - there are places that are a strike which give the pitcher the advantage - that's part of the beauty of the game.

Maddox, Clemens, Glavine come to mind as masters of those spots.

The low outside pitch right above the knee comes to mind as my favorite when I was F2. When the pitcher could hit that spot we had a good night.
