As some else stated, the whole defensive team needs to know what pitch is coming.
Something to think about. Pitch calling is just not about strikeouts, strategies to get pop-ups and ground-outs, pitch-outs or even intentional walks, etc. is sometimes key to a coaches plan. Most pitchers parents are obsessed with getting the K's which might not be in the teams best interest. . .
Pitches should not be calling the pitches. Catcher should be. Catcher is giving the signals so the entire infield can see them (and thus pass them onto the outfield) Pitcher should know why they're being called and when to shake them off but not actually call them.
Excellent point! There is a game within the game that parents that are not on the coaching staff cannot understand from the bleachers. Coaching a game is difficult enough without having it undermined by parents not inside the fences. Trust the coach that she/he is doing what is best for the TEAM.
