Not if he moves up in the box. A pitch on the inside black is borderline unhittable for a guy crowding the plate; you gonna ball that pitch too? I get every strike I can, and the pitch at the bottom of the knee, especially on the outside corner, is my favorite pitch bar none when a guy's throwing it consistently.
