DENVER -- D-backs catching coach Robby Hammock sat at a table in the middle of the visitor's clubhouse at Coors Field and studied video of a Major League catcher whose name he did not want to have published.
It was part of the D-backs' continuing quest to excel at the art of pitch framing, which has garnered much attention over the last several years.
"It's still an ongoing study," Hammock said. "I still can't say what exact factors go into it. You watch different guys and there's plenty of video that you can watch on certain platforms that can show you different guys and what they do, but it's hard to really pin something down.
