Coaching Sign Duel Sets Stage For Pitcher Catcher Theory
A Cal McLish interview explains that the pitcher decides the pitch after catcher signals, with the catcher merely suggesting options. The exchange can disrupt hitters and protect the arm, shaking off signs about six or seven times per game on average. The tactic aims to confuse batters, especially in crucial moments, while players may still follow signals when the pitcher and catcher trust each other.
