Watched the game or debacle whatever you categorize it as, on tv today, noticed pitchers looking at band on wrist or glove and catcher not giving signs? Is the new or have I just not notice it?

At first I thought they were getting the calls sent via their watch. Now I know they’re just checking texts and tiktok updates.

There’s a little device with buttons on it that’s used to call pitches. Players wear the receiver on their wrist, glove, waistband, armband, wherever. I noticed today Nixon has his on his glove and it kept falling off. Foxhall has the device and is choosing pitches and the catcher and pitcher see it so they both know what’s coming. Not sure who (Lem or Jake) tell the defense where to play, or shift/no shift but they get that info too.

in the pros the catcher has the device and pushes buttons to relay to the pitcher what to call. Except Ohtani, he calls his own pitches and relays to his catcher. No more stealing the signs by figuring out what fingers the catcher puts down to signal.
