I have seen on one of the other threads that pitchers, coaches and pitchers dads do not feel that the extra 3' will matter to the pitchers. I believe that is the case especially if they have been pitching and drilling from greater distances in their workouts. What I am interested in seeing is whether or not the increased distance will help the hitters? My daughter and I, when there is a machine have been backing it up a bit to simulate the distance and I feel it will be a benefit to some hitters. Its not so much how it affects a pitcher but does it give the hitter a split second more time to pick up the pitch and make her decisions? Will it matter early in the year? Will it matter when a pitcher is taxed a little more, either by mulitple games or heat? Just wondering what some of your opinions are.
