The term 'CATCHER's stance' refers to the position a CATCHER takes when receiving a pitch in baseball. It is also known as the CROUCH, which is a 6-letter word. The CATCHER's stance involves the CATCHER bending their knees and squatting down behind home plate, with their feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. They then hold their glove up in front of them, ready to catch the ball. This position allows the CATCHER to have a better view of the field and the batter, and to be better prepared to make a quick throw to a base if needed.
