No, a team cannot change pitchers in the middle of an at-bat. The new pitcher must wait until the current at-bat is completed before entering the game.

His song in the 2011 season was "Let it rock" by Kevin Rudolf. He may change it for the 2012 season but hopefully not!

Yes you are. You can even if you have two strikes on you
I could not find any reliable data about middle school baseball pitchers being hit with baseballs. However, I'd guess that every ball player has been hit at least once.
The 2nd one.

On average, there are about 11 to 13 pitchers on every Major League team. There are, on average, 5 starting pitchers, a closer (last-resort pitcher), a set-up pitcher (a pitcher who throws while the closer is still warming up, also the backup closer), 2 long relief pitchers (1st inning through 4th inning backup), and 3 middle relief pitchers (5th inning through early 8th inning backup). The starting pitchers are the pitchers that start pitching in the 1st inning. The pitching rotation is the order of determining what starter will start. The rest of the pitchers make up the bullpen.

A pitcher can change his release type as many times as he wants during any atbat. Of course most pitchers don't. If there aren't any baserunners on then he will use the full leg kick to generate the most power. If he has baserunners on the he will use the slide step in order for runners to have less of a jump in case they want to steal. Sometimes you will see a pitcher use the full leg kick with a runner on third base because runners do not usually steal home. Therocket4ever
their should be at least 5 pitchers on a team [5 starters]. But you can have up to 15 pitchers.
The double switch is generally made to change the batting order. If the pitchers spot is due up the next inning switching two players allows the manager to decide which of the two will bat in the pitchers spot.
