Pitchers
How many of the non prototypical pitchers made it after 12U. The too short, too skinny that hit a late growth spurt and became a force to be dealt with. My guess would be not many.- mizunomp37

Umpires: Call a STRIKE ZONE
Its disheartening to see my DD, and all pitchers who work their butts off to hit corners in a game only to be called balls. Usually they end up throwing down the middle, which goes against what they were taught by their PC's.- mizunomp37

Hillhouse Coming to Chicago October 25-27
I helped Bill to find a venue in Chicago, after meeting him in Milwaukee last year, as he expressed that he has never done lessons in the area. His Website just announced the dates and will be at Elite Sports Performance in Oswego IL. Its located in the Western Suburbs of Chicago. Contact Bill...- mizunomp37

Anderson Flexzilla vs. CF5 -11's
I'm probably gonna get the 21, DD is 11 and weighs about 81 lbs. She is primarily a slapper but has become really good at swinging away as when teams see her, they usually bring the whole infield to about even with the pitcher. Its fun to see the look on coaches faces when she sends a shot to...- mizunomp37

Anderson Flexzilla vs. CF5 -11's
DD outgrew her CF5 31 21. In the mean time I found her a 32 21 Anderson Pyrotech from the stone age which I can't pry away from her. Coming from a CF5, she swears the bat feels like a composite, sounds like one, and feels very light and balanced to her. I ended up getting her a 32 21 Flexzilla...- mizunomp37

Swinging at first pitch vs working the count
After a winter of watching DD's 11U team pound ball after ball in the cage with reckless abandon, I'm witnessing a disturbing trend now that the season has started. They all are taking first pitch strikes! Our coach has tried everything to get them into an aggressive mindset to be ready and...- mizunomp37

D1 pitcher wearing mask in game
I'm watching Northwestern play Minnesota on BTN. The announcer said Kaitlyn Richardson broke her nose yesterday. She's playing third and noticed she is now wearing a mask. I did not catch how she broke her nose.- mizunomp37

DD's 1st tryout - from rec to A ball??
From my own limited experience, at 8U DD became a pitcher and quickly had a natural ability for pitching which was a threat to the DD coach who's daughters happened to be pitchers. Needless to say she was cut by the same coach at 9U tryouts which was the best thing that ever happened to her...- mizunomp37

slap hitting
Wonder what you think on this situation. DD is 10U starting pitcher, weekly lessons, team practice you know the drill, 70lbs soaking wet, tiny little thing with blazing speed to first. Problem is she does not have the body size to get the ball out of the infield, but almost always beats out the...- mizunomp37
