I can't find any original work, best I can do is a 15 year old article about the subject.

still an interesting read
plus this book
The Physics of Baseball
If you're into science even a tiny bit, and if you're into baseball, this is an excellent book.
If you want more like this, The Physics of Baseball is a fantastic book.
Even though hector is a Yankees fan he knows what he is talking about. ;-)
It's all about pitcher vs. batter. Ask, what pitches can the pitcher throw effectively and how does this particular batter handle each one. You need to pay attention to the Pitch Count (i.e. 2 and 1) and how it pressures the both players into changing their approach.
This book is very good but can drag a bit (just like real baseball). http://www.amazon.com/Pure-Baseball-Keith-Hernandez/dp/0060925914
This is also interesting although a little wonky
