In a NFHS game, I have actually had a hitter come to the plate batting left handed. He was attempting to bunt for a hit up the third base line and gain a head start from being on that side of the plate. After he obtained the second strike and as the catcher was throwing the ball back to the mound, the hitter switched to the right handed side of the plate. The only confusion was with the parents in the crowd.

I have witnessed a pitcher pitch with both arms. Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska had a pitcher that could pitch with both arms. He utilizes a five finger glove so it can work on either hand. According to the rules, he does have to decide which arm he is pitching with to each hitter before the at bat starts.
