DD is a backup pitcher on V and is #1 P on JV.
Last nights game is a nail biter for the first few innings. Top of 4 she has a 0.0 ERA however they've scored 4 on infielders errors. In the fifth, the wheels completely fall off. The opponents are getting on with every single batter. DD is giving me that look with high eyebrows and pursed up lips between every pitch call thats getting relayed to the catcher. She tells me after the game that he threatened to bench her if she continued to disobey his pitch calls. He was calling high and out change ups, high and out peel drops and fast balls down main street! Apparently in the first 4 innings, she was ignoring him and mixing speeds extremely well and jamming batters hands with low and in drops. Once the 5th inning started it was BP... Defence played like a rec league 3rd string. The entire 45min. long, 14 runs scored, and about 10 errors top of the 5th.....not a single change up was thrown. He then pulls dd and says "you've lost your gas and they've dialed in on ya".... my wife who is usually very positive and quiet finally speaks up and yells its not the pitcher its the coach that needs pulled! LOL
During the post game outfield meeting the coach blames the loss on DD's poor pitching. What an rear!
