Assuming we see the ambidextrous pitcher here are the rules regarding that. Would be funny to see him and Milam play games with each other


The new rules regarding ambidextrous pitchers are as follows:

The pitcher must visually indicate to the umpire, batter and runner(s) which way he will begin pitching to the batter. Engaging the rubber with the glove on a particular hand is considered a definitive commitment to which arm he will throw with. The batter will then choose which side of the plate he will bat from.
The pitcher must throw one pitch to the batter before any "switch" by either player is allowed.
After one pitch is thrown, the pitcher and batter may each change positions one time per at-bat. For example, if the pitcher changes from right-handed to left-handed and the batter then changes batter's boxes, each player must remain that way for the duration of that at-bat (unless the offensive team substitutes a pinch hitter, and then each player may again "switch" one time).
Any switch (by either the pitcher or the batter) must be clearly indicated to the umpire.

If the weather today in Starkville is anything like the weather in Baton Rouge, both teams will need an amphibious pitcher.

That dude should not be a pitcher, he should be a Navy SEAL.

Similar to MLBs Pat Venditte rule, the NCAA rule on switch pitchers, the hitter has the advantage .

quote:

NCAA 9.2k


quote:

Pitch both right-handed and left-handed to the same batter during a plate appearance (ambidextrous-pitcher rule).

PENALTY—If a pitcher changes pitching hands during a batter’s time at bat, the umpire shall:

1) Call a balk if a runner(s) is on base;

2) Call a ball for an illegal pitch if no runner(s) is on base;

3) Warn the pitcher; or

4) Eject the pitcher if the offense is repeated.

Note 1: When facing a switch hitter, an ambidextrous pitcher shall declare the hand with which to pitch to the hitter.

Note 2: If a pinch hitter replaces a batter during a turn at bat, the pitcher may change pitching hands.




Funny sequence that led to the PV rule-
