As I commented earlier I have not seen whatever that mystery dot is while hitting or catching. For that matter while playing catch overhand I've not seen it either.I noticed the black circle on the back of number of bullet spin pitches. Since the horseshoes on a ball are not symmetrically opposed if you look at a bullet spin pitch and don't see the dot on the back that doesn't mean that it is showing to the hitter. It could be presenting to the hitter though,
What I noticed and have commented on with pitchers is when they give away their grip/pitch exposing it outside their glove before starting their pitch.you would think that catchers would notice this and bring it to someone's attention, right Rad?
Like when they are adjusting the ball to the side of their body trying to find the seam they want.
Btw imo the backhand flip change-up is the worst giveaway Change-Up of all.
