Well, speaking from a stand point, of my kid is a catch....it is true that a catcher helps a pitcher out tremendously. My kid has told me many times that a blue will call a strike if she hangs the glove over the plate. Catchers who let the glove come into their chest, after a ball is pitched, will never, ever get a strike call. If the blue can't see the pitch because the sun is in his eye's, yes, he will call it off the glove, good or bad.
