There were actually several hitters who came out and said they wanted pitchers to be able to use something so they would have better control
Man, just stop. Yes, there are players in every sport who cheat, but this was embarrassingly bad. Quit defending it.

I cant believe I just read that.
Next thing you know you will be hearing about pitchers that want to pitch to corked bats again.

You don't have to believe it.. but that doesn't make it not true.. I'll try to find you a quote on it. It's 100% true.

Sorry pal, you don’t know what you’re talking about
There are a TON of hitters who were against the ban on sticky stuff
quote:
I use pine tar on my bat so the bat doesn't slip out of my hands," Baltimore outfielder Adam Jones says. "So a pitcher can use pine tar on the ball so it doesn't hit me in the face."
Washington Nationals slugger Bryce Harper concurs.
"Absolutely," Harper says. "I'm all in favor of it. If there's a guy out there that needs it, I'm all for it. I don't want to get hit in the head or the face. So whatever they need out there, I'll let them have it."
It's true, in an era in which the average MLB fastball is well up into the 90s, many hitters support the notion that it is time for the league to approve and regulate a substance beyond rosin that is legal for pitchers to use.
"Obviously, you want a pitcher to have control of the ball," the Los Angeles Angels' Mike Trout says. "You don't want a ball up and in when everybody's throwing 100 nowadays. There's mixed feelings, obviously, throughout the clubhouse and throughout baseball with this.
