You would want good control as a pitcher so, "to become not-suffering in
control" or "attain good control" is the default way of reading this.

but what exactly is コントロール **に**? i have to resort to reading it as
コントロールは/が...

thanks

question
grammar
に in コントロールに苦しまなくなった
This に marks the cause/reason of one's feelings or pychological reactions. For
example:

  * Aに驚く to be surprised _at_ A
  * Aに悲しむ to feel sad _about_ A
  * Aに怒る to become angry _with_ A
  * Aに戸惑う to be puzzled _by_ A
  * Aに感動する to be moved/impressed _by_ A

So コントロールに苦しむ means "to suffer _from_ (one's bad) control". コントロールが/は苦しむ means
something like "(Mr.) Control suffers", which makes no sense here.
