    Pitcher's Reaction to Catcher Signs

    Can anyone tell me why the pitcher sometimes gives a "glove shake" like he doesn't like the catcher's call? Other times, the pitcher just nods and pitches what the catcher calls.

      a shake of the glove means that he wants the catcher to give the signs again... Do they do that in this game??

          I've seen a pitcher shake his head, but only when trying to choose a pitch you do not have.

          For example, if a pitcher throw four pitches and you press the RB, he'll shake his head because he doesn't have a fifth pitch.

          I've never seen a pitcher shake his glove, though.

              You can hit the R Trigger while pitching and he asks for the sign again (Shakes his glove)

                  Does it do anything?

                      Nothing but have the catcher give you the location again.
