This is one of my BIG pet peeves about the game these days. Every single pitch is called by the coaches and it is really annoying to see these wristbands and then switching out wristbands as you swap pitches (saw that on TV this weekend). Is it really that hard for the pitcher and catcher to study charts before going into a series then get with pitching coach for the weekend and understand tendencies then take what the umpire is giving you mix in what is working that game for the pitcher an you now have an evolving game plan.
If you have zero information on the batters at a random 14U weekend tourney, exactly what the heck are you doing as a coach? You are just making stuff up....not gonna get on that soapbox today... my favorites are the 12U bucket dad coaches and father of the #1 pitcher calling pitches for DD who can't locate a pitch within two feet.
