Extremely Quick Pitcher

[johnnyg08]

most umps will not allow the quick pitch...it's PU's job to control the pace of the game, not the pitcher...I will typically work with my catcher...w/o anybody else in the stadium even knowing or hearing...I tell the catcher..."let him get set," "let him get set"...sometimes, I'll even tell F2 "go out and tell him to let the hitter get set," sometimes I'll say to F2..."I'll give you the same courtesy when you're hitting" I know it's a rule, but sometimes it helps to just talk to them and not rule book them.
