Reply to "Taking pitches"

I am assuming that this was a youngish hitting coach.

FWIW, son is a D2 pcoach in Florida in the sunshine state league. This league is more of a hitters league than a pitchers league, as is in most D2 programs.

Many times the hitters are not as patient, mainly due to the erratic pitching. I have seen this throughout the league, with the exception of 2 top well coached teams who could beat D1 on any given day (Nova and Tampa). There are a few teams in FL not in that league.

My only guess, not being there would be the pitcher was pounding the zone, just missing, and he was using the opportunity to instruct players to be more patient, especially if a young team.
