>>100954126>Not sure why they don't throw it so the bat hits it a bad angle but okAlso, as a follow-up, the pitcher must at least try to throw the ball into this invisible area, or trick the batter to swing as a missed swing is a strike regardless on where the ball ends up Miss it four times then the batter automatically advances to the next base. Do it enough times then you could give the opponent a free point for free.
Since people pitch differently, some can find it difficult to do what you say. Some focus on throwing hard and fast, while others focus on tricking batters to swing incorrectly. Some even allow the batter to hit a weirdly spinning ball so that it ends up to a teammate. And batters have a fraction of a second to guess the right way to swing.
