can a left handed person be catcher in the major lieges
In little League thru High School, most batters are right handed as well. A left handed catcher will not have near as much success throwing the ball to second on a steal. Also, since most catchers are right handed, most pitchers are disoriented by a left handed catcher therefore coaches will discourage lefties from pursuing the position.
Left handed
As of the 2014 season, the Chicago White Sox have 6 left handed pitchers.
There have been 5 left handed catchers that have played 100 or more games in MLB history and about 25 other lefties that have played at least one game at the catcher position. Click on the 'Left Handed Catchers' link on this page to see a list of those players who have played catcher and been left handed.
Left-handed catchers are rare but not unheard of. You'll have to order a glove online because most sporting goods stores only keep right-handed gloves in stock...I'd go for it. You might be great!
No,He was right handed and his last name is spelled "Lennon"
Normally, you would stand with the STRONG side toward the catcher. Usually the right side (or the left side of the catcher) is the best side for a right handed person, although there are those few people who can bat on both sides equally well. Standing on the left side of the catcher is easier because it is my right hand that is guiding where the bat goes.
