Normally, the pitcher will stand on the mound, watching/waiting for the batter to do his trademark nuances and get back into the batter's, before delivering his pitch. I believe the 1st question was answered but as far as the above 2nd question: In the short time I have actually played the game the batters do either take a step back in the batters box or will step out. I have yet to see the batter "snap" into position at the plate.

Thank you for your response. I appreciate it a lot.

I probably should have been more specific. I was hoping for more of what Joe Mauer does in the following video for all batter's (batter taking time before stepping back into the batter's box).

I was hoping that the following batter's sequences would be completely out (i.e. batter immediately ready for the next pitch). These were one of my main concerns while playing MLBtheShow09 (it took away from the immersive experience). It sounds/looks like these are still in for TheShow10.
