why are pitchers limited to the taller people?
The conventional wisdom of stay tall and get on top is intended to help pitchers to generate downward plane, altering the trajectory of the ball to make life tougher on hitters
is this such a factor that someone say 5"4 say with a 100mph fastball that they wouldn't even get a chance to be a pitcher past little league?
another site i found Does Size Matter (Part 5)

can find quite a few if you search so there must be something to it
