What is the best way to pitch against a slapper? Looking to neutralize the slappers skill to give our defense a better chance. Any and all opinions appreciated. Thanks
Lol. I knew that was a trap.Fast ball, right down the middle, waist-high.
(disclaimer - DD is a slapper)
Not 100% sure I would agree with that. As an umpire I see the low and outside pitch put in play more that any other pitch. Seems they can get the barrel of the bat on it there. Definitely agree with the high hard and on the hands.As a general rule, low and outside is the hardest pitch for slappers to make good contact with. High, hard and in on the hands is the 2nd.
