Left-handed pitchers are often more effective against left-handed batters because the ball tends to move away from the batter, making it harder for them to make solid contact. This can create a disadvantage for left-handed batters, as they have to reach across their body to hit the ball.

Left-handed pitchers in baseball have certain advantages over right-handed pitchers due to their unique throwing angle. This can make it more challenging for batters to pick up the ball and adjust their timing, giving left-handed pitchers a strategic edge. Additionally, left-handed pitchers are often seen as more valuable in certain situations, such as facing left-handed batters or holding runners on base.
Pitchers intentionally walk batters during a game to avoid facing a strong hitter who has a high chance of getting a hit or hitting a home run. This strategic move is used to control the game and minimize the risk of giving up runs.

The term southpaw is definitely an American term for a left-handed person. Since most ball fields are designed so that batters face east, pitchers would be facing west and if they were left-handed, their south-sided arm would be their pitching arm.
There is no rule, but the point of home plate often faces west. This is so that the batter is not looking into the setting sun. This placement is the origin of the term "Southpaw" as a pitcher's left hand is on the southside when facing home plate, and a lefthanded pitcher would be facing south when in the stretch. Many other orientations are acceptable, but you would not want the batter facing west, nor the first baseman facing west when handling a throw from the other infielders.
