Harris said something about owning the strike zone in the spring. I don't see that very much in the PAs that I have seen. I couldn't help but notice yesterday how many pictures Tigers hitters swung at that were high.

the batter is thinking that the pitcher knows he needs to get ahead in the count, so they are likely to be throwing a fast ball for a strike.
