    Pitch comms malfunction constantly because the MLB specifications assumed that there was no radio frequency interference in MLB parks. The comms are constantly overpowered by cell phones and Wi-Fi signals at the ballpark. We tried one in Seattle, once when it wasn’t a game day and it worked fine. Then we tried it during a game and it didn’t work at all. There was so much RFI flying around that at a distance of 30 feet, the two units could not receive each other. We left the field after the game and tried the comm in the parking garage. It worked there. My friends monitor for RF attached to his laptop recorded multiple overlapping RF signals and spillover from different systems. It’s a miracle the devices function at all, ever.

    I get the whole anti-cheating angle and how good cameras are... especially zoom cameras. But man I do miss the catcher just waggling some fingers for the calls. And I miss Jomboy being able to break the waggling down. "Shaking off" is such an iconic part of baseball and sports lexicon. This is gonna be my "grandpa yells at clouds" issue I die on the hill for... pitch comms sucks for the game of baseball

      @finnb2318 10 місяців тому

      @@powertrip6426 If it only takes one guy and a computer to decode a team's sign, decryption is an issue. You would need to invent multiple systems (ring finger means fastball in one, and slider in the other) and then randomize which system is used on the day of the game to counteract the fact that your opponent knows which sign correlates with which pitch. Even then, your opponent has probably figured out the spiel after 10-20 pitches, if they want to. Meaning you really need a whole lot of systems and to change them every inning. Now imagine being the catcher having to remember all these systems.
      Otherwise you'd need to institute a ban on teams viewing footage of an ongoing game (which would interfere with replay challenges), but even then they would just look up the game on the next day to steal the signs.

      They arent malfunctioning. They are using it as a way/excuse to subtly throw off the batter. Anything slightly considered as a balk is a "malfunctioning device" etc. No ways they are gonna straight up admit that they balked or not, and use the device as an excuse, even when its not or use it as a way to throw off the batter. In any high level competition, something new brought into the sport, they will analyze every aspect on both sides as an advantage or disadvantage

      There’s also no way to prove when a pitcher has locked eyes with the batter, every single time. I’ve seen the pitcher just waiting, the hitter looks right at the mound, then does what happened here, acting like they will argue the pitch away, and don’t even try to hit it. Then they argue that they didn’t meet eyes.
      I do t even fully understand every rule around it. Like when can a runner steal a base. If the batter calls time, I’d think they can’t steal, but once they’re in the box, how does a runner know they’ve met eyes, or can they run whenever they want?

    Yeah, he definitely quick pitched him, but he timed it perfectly because he waited for the exact moment Manny lifted his head up. So even though they didn't make eye contact, it looks like it enough for them to not make the call. As George W. Bush would have said, that was some good "Strategery".

      Yeah Manny was expecting him to keep his hands far apart until they made eye contact, then go into the set. So he was surprised when he looked up and saw Brusdar was almost in the set position. He just was able to quickly get set and pitch. But the rule is he can pitch anytime after they make eye contact if the batter has both feet in the box in the hitting position.

      ​@@Fly-The-WI feel like pitcher didn't come out of set early. It looks like he gets eye contact and then he sets him self. He pauses long enough to not balk imo and I think its legit. Unless the rule is the pitcher has to bet set the entire time, which I imagine isn't the case. I feel like people are saying him placing the ball was coming out of set. This looks like actually going into set. Tbf I don't really know what this pitchers normal rhythm is, but it looked legit to me.

    Ok, so the slowmo only shows the arm. In the full shot, looks like many makes eye contact at the same time pitcher moves his leg. I think many got confused because the pitcher's arm does come up before the eye contact. It really depends on if the arm coming up counts as getting in the set position. If yes, many is in the right, but I'm not sure what the rules say.

    Jimmy is wrong here, at 4:41 pause it and you'll see definite eye contact. Now focus on the pitcher and press play, and you'll see his hand go into the glove, a pause, then the pitch. The "pause" is the point he came "set" and this was after the point WE paused the video, so unless there were some time travelling shenanigans going on the facts trump opinion and it was a good pitch and the correct call by the ump.

    100% a balk. Before pitchcom, a pitcher didn't begin a windup until the catcher knew what was coming. And if the catcher wasn't clear, he called time. A pitcher can't go into the stretch, then reach back for pitchcom. That's just a balk in the same way it would have been pre-pitchcom.
