I always talk about how baseball is constantly changing right before our very eyes. The endless game of cat and mouse between hurlers and batters carries the sport from one era to the next, each advance made by a side leading to a quick response from the other. When the strikezone was taller, the high heater was a permanent fixture in the game. Then, in the mid-90’s, the bottom of the zone went from right at the knees to below the knees, and pitchers started countering the relatively flat bat path that was common at the time by living at the bottom of the zone.
