JUPITER, Fla. — Always one who took a guiding role in calling his games, even when Yadier Molina and him had what one teammate called "telepathy," Adam Wainwright is testing a new element of PitchCom this spring to see if it even picks up the pace of his games.
Instead of the catcher wearing the PitchCom device to call pitches, Wainwright wore it Monday, affixed to the outside of his glove, near his wrist.
That allowed him to call the pitch, to set the location, rock and fire.
"As soon as I get the ball back, I'll be pressing some buttons," Wainwright said.
