Never give up on a 50/50 pitch. If you do sometimes the umpire will immediately think it’s a ball. You miss all the shots you don’t take 🤷♂️
As for breaking balls that are up: those are pitches where we have to wait back and catch it deep (close to the body) instead of going to get it. The umpire is supposed to call it where it crosses, so if you go out and grab it while it’s crossing high —- it could look like a ball versus catching it closer as shown in the video.
