San Francisco Giants pitchers have begun calling their own pitches due to a reported lack of trust in the team's catchers. With the MLB trade deadline approaching, the Giants have struggled this season, particularly on the mound. Reports indicate that Logan Webb and others have opted to take control of pitch selection, as the current catching tandem of Daniel Susac and Eric Haase has had difficulties in adapting. Webb's success while calling his own pitches has prompted other pitchers to follow suit. The Giants are hoping for improved communication with their catchers moving forward.
