Reply to "The Importance of Catching"

Take it from a dad of a catcher...

You can "take a few pitches off" in the outfield and get away with it more times than not.

You might even be able to snooze on one in the infield, and, if you're lucky enough, get away with it and no one will be the wiser.

Catcher? You can't take one single pitch "off" for all the obvious reasons.

My son is a catcher who will sometimes play the outfield or first when he is getting a break from catching.  He says playing the outfield is like "getting the day off" compared to catching because there's so much less you have to do and be aware about, mentally.
