@Nick Paul Sometimes I think all of this just gets in the pitcher's head and instead of getting in a rhythm, he is over-thinking -- literally the worst thing a pitcher should be doing. Just have the catcher giving signs with an initiate/indicator and confirmation sign... This is why sometimes three football coaches will give offensive/defensive calls (not so much in the NFL because each team has one player on the field with an audio receiver.) Similar to how third-base coaches give signs. Bumping the pitch could also be hard to decipher: 2 fastball, 3 offspead, 4 other fastball/slider, 1 changeup/other special pitch. Just keep it easy for a pitcher to stay in rhythm.

I remember a clip of Jake Peavy pitching for the Giants a few years ago. He was a veteran at the end of his career, known for being "intense" on the mound, and his catcher was an emergency rookie callup (at least one of the regulars was injured, maybe both). He got so exasperated with the rookie not calling the right pitch that finally he just yelled it to him.

@selfdo

I recall that, prior to Buster Posey, the Giants had a game where BOTH of their catchers had to come out of the game due to injury, so Pedro Feliz, normally at third or moved to left when Bonds wasn't playing, strapped on the gear and caught a few innings. Supposedly Pedro had some experience as a kid behind the plate, so he wasn't completely lost.

My team used a cool sign method. Catcher lays first sign and then you add 1 for every sign he shows after that. Say I throw 3 pitches: 1 = fastball, 2 = curve, 3 = change. Catcher flashes 2, 2, 2. The pitch is fastball. Start at 2, then there are 2 more signs shown. So go from 2 to 3 and start back over at 1. So simple, but so hard to crack.

"That's bush..."

I was a catcher for a while in the eighties and was a batting practice pitcher. We couldn't use cheat sheets we had to keep it in our heads. Pitcher or catcher you have to know the pitch so you don't lose it. As a catcher you use glove motions to correct the pitcher. Pull catches to fool the umpire. You basically can control the field if you do it right.

What do you mean “Yaz was guessing pitches” Jomboy was guessing pitches. Impressive

When I played in college we did “follow the 1 mod 5” which was after the 1, you add up the next numbers until you get 5, and then the next number is the pitch. It was so complicated we had many cross ups, and pitchers doing math on the mound instead of focusing on pitching, so I think it did way more harm than good. Glad I was a position player because I’m not sure I could have done mental math on the mound haha.

4:25 ''..What's five? I just chose it.. '' Pure gold. Thank you.

Honestly, as someone who's never watched a game of Baseball, couldn't even name a single baseball player, this is so interesting. I had no idea there was this level of planning and stuff going on.

Yas looked guilty as hell when the pitcher called him out lmao I love it 😂😂😂

At the younger levels the signs between the catcher and pitcher are usually straight forward and simple. 1 for Fastball, 2 for Breaking Ball, 3 for changeup. If/when a runner reaches 2nd, they might mix it up by in going on the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th sign. Or they might have an indicator like whatever gets flashed after the catcher puts down a certain number number of fingers. Or they might even change it to the catcher touching certain spots on his gear, while whatever the catcher flashes mean absolutely nothing.. Sometimes the signs might be coming from the dugout, an whatever the catcher does is a decoy. Baseball offers opportunities for guys to get real creative with signage. At the college and professional levels pitchers usually have a lot more control over where they are trying to throw the ball. They, at least, have a better idea of where they want/need to throw their pitches. This brings in another level of signs between the catcher and pitcher. There will be one sign for the pitch type, and one sign for the location, or zone, of the pitch. As you can probably imagine, things start to get complicated. If/when a runner is on 2nd, things can get really complicated to the point of easily confusing. Hence the cheat sheets. Baseball is boring to the average onlooker who doesn't know what they're looking at, but if you understand basic baseball, you know that baseball is situation dependent, and the situation of the game changes from pitch to pitch.

This was a great breakdown. Learned something new, it was funny and entertaining, and best of all, Jomboy made it. Keep doing more breakdowns like this, showing the finer, more mental parts of the game.

i was at this game it was really weird to see it because i was really confused but now it makes so much sense

This is awesome. I never really played baseball after tee ball because I thought it was boring but these break downs help a ton.

I love this guy especially when he reads the lips of the players. Awesome!

You know honestly,this was one of my favorite breakdowns. Great insight,great humor,and some advice at the end. Also might be the longest one but never felt like it dragged.

Jomboy- guesses every sign right and breaks down the code *Astros would like to know your location*

Awesome break down. I knew there was a language going on there. Had no idea. Going to see games now in a different lens. Thank you!!

First time I've ever seen players pull out cheat sheets ever! That's nuts!

Switched to sling and can barely find any games. Thank you Jomboy it’s pretty much all the baseball I can get right now

Football season’s coming and ive never watched a full baseball game in my life but jomboy’s breakdowns are fun to watch and ive prolly learned about baseball here than anywhere

This is why we call baseball players the "Boys of Summer." - "I don't know what their signs are, but I'll make them think that I do."

I’ve learned more about baseball from your videos. Thank you! This is awesome.

I love the funny breakdowns, especially with lip reading, but as someone who likes baseball but doesn't know the ins and outs of playing, I really enjoyed the insight on the signs. More breakdowns with teaching us how to read signs please!

Imagine if they ever started texting signs 😆

The signs they were doing at the end wasn’t the numbers haha. It was catcher glove location. Hand on knee for fastball and glove on ground for breaker

I hate baseball but I love this channel. That pitcher was absolutely terrified and it showed. 😂🤣😂

As a kid when I started little league my dad would always tell me that in baseball there's a lot going on when nothings going on. Of course I didn't get it until I got a little older but once I got into tournament ball and we were using sequences and had cards in our hats for shifts and stuff I understood.

Pitchers are absolutely adorable with their fragile little feelings. So cute...

That was a great video. Thanks for narrating that arcane action. I have to say that AT THE GAME you can't see anything like what we just saw. At the game has its own charms especially if you're lucky enough to get great seats down near the field and really feel the players. But you can't see signs, like you just showed us. Thank you!!

Yaz did a great job of getting in a young pitcher's head. Big baseball IQ on Yaz.

I attended a Padre game back in the late '70s in which Randy Jones threw a complete came in 92 minutes. In the modern game, one inning can take 40 minutes. 4-hour baseball games with most of the MLB team batting averages below .230 and billion strikeouts has made the game unwatchable

@@YourHeroA Football and basketball games on TV take ad breaks, not baseball. Baseball doesn't need to provide ad breaks it's inherently built into the game with inning changeovers and bringing in a new pitcher. Thanks for posting the average times. Royals and Rangers played a game last year 4 hours 26 min for 9 innings that's an average of 30 minutes an inning.

please remember us when youre broadcasting on some nationally televised baseball show. seriously, that was some top-notch, A++, prime time breaking down action

Wow! No wonder games drag on. Picking signs up from 2B extremely difficult especially when they change them so often. This pitcher was worried more about the runner getting signs than making the pitch. Even if the hitter knows what’s coming, you make a quality pitch you can still get the batter out.

Pitching clocks are coming for the 2023 season so your wish has been granted !

These are my favorite Jomboy breakdowns. Yeah, "first base coach throws hat in dirt in front of ump" is OK, but these are really fun.

The pitch clock was the greatest thing baseball ever did.
