Please educate me. Are hitters instructed to not swing at the first pitch?

With the strike zone today, absolutely
I think if I'm the big whistle, or whatever you call the head softball coach...all but my best couple of hitters have the red light until they have 2 strikes ..

Yes...when you have a pitcher that can't find the plate....
And an ump that has a strike zone the size of a postage stamp....damn right. We're taking a lot of pitches....
