This question is going out to Hitting Coaches (not the pitchers - question is to the hitters)...
Here is the situation... your student, player, daughter, is up to bat... she is down in the count... 0-2. This pitcher has not bothered wasting pitches and has come after the batters on 0-2. So as a hitter, she can expect something in the strike zone... The pitcher has better than good speed (can throw it pass the batter if not prepared) and has effective off-speed and has used both efficiently throughout the game.
If the pitcher can pitch to any location on the plate (up / down, in / out)... Where as a hitter DO YOU WANT it to be.
I have an opinion but would be interested in hearing others...
