What are some of the pros and cons of having a coach calling pitches from behind the backstop?
I have to agree. That being said, DD of HC is the catcher and calls the pitches herself at 12u. Last game she called FB-FB-CU-CU. Pitcher got the K. Batter never expected 2 CUs in a row. HC kind of yelled never call to 2 CUs in a row again. Personally, I thought it was a brilliant call since it was the #4 batter, 3rd inning with same pitcher throwing all FBs with very few CUs peppered in and pitcher was ahead in the count 1-2.
