First time post but I wanted to know the craziest way teams lost a game.
Our 14U tournament championship game a few weekends ago, we were down 2 runs in the 7th inning with 2 outs. A hit, followed up by a double, runner scores from first. Down 3-2. Next girl crushes a triple, runner on second could have walked home. She gets to home plate, runner on third and the coaches from the other team started yelling to tag the girl at home, they do and the umpire called the runner out. Game over.
The poor kid starts crying saying she tagged the plate. I feel bad but I didn't see it. 14 U A we have talked base running gone over base running. I will watch from now on...
I'm still proud of our girls for never giving up. Great comeback...In 41 years of playing, coaching and watching, never seen a team lose that way.
