HS coaches: Are you OK with your batters sometimes sitting low/away in an 0-2 or 1-2 count when it seems, for whatever reason, the pitcher will go low/away.

By sitting, I mean total sell-out. That is, high probability of a strikeout if it's a strike anywhere other than the lower 1/3 of the zone.

Edited: Cabbagedad, thanks for catching my error. The words in bold are a change/clarification of my original post.
