Baseball – Pitching and the Strike Zone

"Simple rules about Pitching and the strike zone.
The battle between the teams involves constant skirmishes between their respective pitchers and their opponent's batters. The pitcher has incentives to pitch the baseball to an area, the strike zone, where it is relatively easy for the batter to strike it with his bat. ...
The strike zone is an imaginary box above home plate, and the umpire judges whether or not a baseball has entered it. ...
Needing to deliver the baseball where he does not want to, the pitcher uses all his skill and cunning to try to prevent the batter from hitting it." [official-rules.org/ pitching/ ]
