Pitcher can put more spin on the ball, so more movement
to fool the batters.
On the other hand, a spot of pine tar might help a batter pick up the ball's spin a little more easily and more quickly identify the pitch.

Better grip is not much different from rosin, but better movement from loading..

It's not that big of a deal: just helps pitcher grip
