I will never, ever, understand people who buy this "pitch to contact" stuff. It just makes no sense at all from a mechanical standpoint. You're basically taking the approach of hoping that, rather than miss a pitch entirely, a hitter will make contact with the ball but avoid squaring it up and hitting it hard. Of course, how does this even work mechanically? Do you throw down the middle of the plate? Do you work around the edges? How exactly do you go about pitching so that the batter will neither square the ball up nor miss the pitch entirely?
uhhh i mean i don't want to question some blogger but doesn't the phrase refer to not nibbling, not wasting 0-2 and 1-2 on pitches way outside the zone, avoiding walks at all costs, and other concepts that are pretty well-understood?

I followed a shaky 120-pitch no-hitter with a three-inning start plagued by control problems (more balls than strikes), and I was visited by the trainer in the middle of an intentional walk. I have a history of arm troubles.

Overall this season the Twins have scored zero or one run in 26 percent of their games, which is tied with the Mariners for worst in the league. And as bad as that sounds they’ve been far worse recently, scoring zero or one run in 17 of 33 games since August 1. To put that in some context, consider that the Yankees (13), Diamondbacks (15), Tigers (16), and Orioles (16) have scored zero or one run fewer than 17 times all season. What a mess.
