He has to choose a side when the batter comes to the plate correct?

JP said...

@anon1 Really?? a knuckle ball?? Easier said then done.

@anon 2 I believe the rules state he must tell the batter which side he is coming from, the batter then can chose his side and each are allowed to switch once during the AB.

He looks like he has come a long way. When he started out, he could only throw mid 80's righty and 70's lefty. Now he can throw as fast as the next major leaguer.

I thought I heard him say he must call where he's pitching from then the batter can choose. Then he can't switch until the end of the AB...
