As for the pitcher seeing your chest I tried to find some pictures but Google hates me. Imagine this - in the runners on position you want your butt up higher. Think of sitting on a short stool with the edge of your butt but your bent at the waist. This allows the ump to still see the zone better although you're in a more athletic position to move around and block. With nobody on your but can be much lower but this will bring your top more upright. When I was catching in college I was so flexible that the inside part of my thighs could touch the ground. I couldn't block things to my side but the umpire had a perfect view of the zone. Hope that helps
Okay, thank you. I did now change to having two stances, I always did have them, just in the BF visor I hadn't caught in months, I was playing first on varsity my sophomore year, and my throws to second have gotten better, you'll see when I get more video
