Signs, or hand signals, are used during a Baseball game so the players of each team can communicate with each other and the coaching staff. Predetermined signs such as a touch of the cap, a tap on the nose or a hand swipe across the chest could relay a play being put on such as a base runner stealing a base or telling a batter to bunt the ball. The catcher will use signs to relay to the pitcher on what pitch to throw and location. Most signs are changed from game to game or the "key sign" that signals the coming sign to keep an opponent from stealing the information.

How are pitchers getting signs from catchers in baseball games?

Pitchers in baseball games typically receive signs from catchers through a series of hand signals. These signals are used to communicate the type of pitch to be thrown, such as a fastball or a curveball. The catcher will use a combination of finger placements and gestures to relay the desired pitch to the pitcher without the opposing team being able to intercept the signs. This method helps maintain secrecy and strategy during the game.
