NFHS, NCAA, and Pro: Ambidexterous pitcher and switch hitter. How often may the batter switch (as in between pitches), and the same for the pitcher? Thanks!
|
NHFS, prior to facing the batter the pitcher must decide which hand he will pitch with, from there the batter can assume a position in either batter's box and play continues. Interesting to note though, nothing prohibits a batter from changing sides during the at bat, only the pitcher is prohibited from changing which hand to pitch with during the AB.
I assume that NCAA and and MLB have similar rules, but as always, correct me if wrong. |

How does the pitcher get a glove for the other hand if he switches? If he goes to the dugout to switch gloves would that constitute a mound visit?

Of course he'd have to run over and have someone toss it to him, but I wouldn't charge a visit unless the coach comes to the mound to give it to him. |
