How Yankees catchers have perfected the art of stealing strike

Robo umps , but Heath Kizer Jersey for now, the Yankees are winning the battle for framing. Jose Trevino and Austin Wells have been two of the best pitch framers through the first six weeks of the season, playing a hand in helping the Yankees pitching staff get off to a strong start despite not being at full strength. Obviously, Trevy, thats what hes known for, and hes really good at that, Clarke Schmidt said. Even early on in this season, I told Wells, weve had that conversation: Dude, youve been winning some of these swing pitches and it completely changed the [at-bat]. And it can change an outing, too. Just by putting that extra emphasis on trying to steal the strike. And while the risks of the race for pitch framing were highlighted this week when Cardinals catcher when a swing from Mets slugger J.D. Martinez hit his outstretched arm as catchers around the league inch closer to the plate to better receive low pitches the Yankees are plugging away with their proce s aimed at maximizing framing and minimizing risk.
