    Hands apart

    I guess we’ll have to wait until the 2028 Olympics where we can hopefully take back the gold😪

    Uniforms

    I feel like some of the pants with a design on them can look really good. DD’s favorite type of design has always been thin pinstripes on the top and the pants. Pinstripes do look pretty cool but they’re a pain to replace and a pinstriped top with solid black replacement pants always looks awful.

    The neon colored jerseys are always the worst ones o_O

    New Meta X?

    Any word on the new meta? Really interested in seeing whether or not it’s the true “ghost killer” that it was said to be. I’ve been looking for information about it but I’ve had a hard time finding any. How does the meta compare to other power hitter bats like the ghost, xeno, fnx, and lxt?

    Team USA vs Japan

    I agree, Munro is an amazing catcher but she really shouldn’t of been in the batting lineup. You could tell she wasn’t able to keep up with the pitching. I’m sorta confused as to why she was even in the batting lineup to begin with. The whole point of the stand beside her tour was to prepare for...

    Parent Cheers?

    I’ve seen two different high school teams still doing chants. One team just sorta quietly said the usual chants. We were beating this team a lot to nothing so hearing them cheer eachother on with the chants was a little weird but also sorta motivating to see how supportive they all were. The...

    Team USA vs Japan

    Wow... those stats are not great. It felt like McCleney was the only one who got on base consistently but I didn’t realize the gap between her and the rest of the team was that large. I found somewhere that the average overall batting average at the Olympics was a .206. That means we only had...

    Team USA vs Japan

    I think both reed and McCleney are slappers but they both mainly opted to hit away lefty for the Olympics. I’m not sure though. I’ve definitely seen reed slap in a game before and I think I’ve seen McCleney slap here and there. It’s strange that neither of them really tried to slap in the...

    Team USA vs Japan

    For those who didn’t hear team USA lost to japan in the gold medal game 2-0. For the second Olympics in a row team USA has gotten silver. It looked promising at first after team USA beat japan 2-1 in round robin play but japan managed to pull through in the gold medal game. I had a strong...

    Team USA!

    I feel like all the teams are more evenly matched this year. In the last Olympic Games the USA team dominated but it’s been awhile since the last time softball has been in the Olympics and over time the sport has spread to more countries and started to become a bigger sports in countries outside...

    Team USA!

    That 1-0 win over Canada was a little scary. It seems like team USA is going to have a lot of close games throughout this tournament and just rely on their pitchers to stop the other teams from scoring. Thankfully team USA has some of the best pitching in the world thanks to Monica abott and cat...

    Team USA!

    Oh I’m so sorry I didn’t know anything about those events that had happened with the umpire being attacked. I didn’t mean to seem like I was hating on the umpire I was just mentioning some of the things I noticed. I’m truly sorry if it seemed like I was trying to attack this umpire. I was just...

    Team USA!

    For those who haven’t heard yet (I’m sure there’s very few of you) team USA just beat team Italy 2-0 in the 2nd round robin game of the Olympics. Japan won the first game of the Olympics over Australia 8-1. Do you guys have any opinions on team USA after seeing their first Olympic game. my...

    Does that make me a bucket mom in DE?

    The biggest advice I can give is to enjoy every second of her softball career. Whether her last season be as a senior in highschool or as a senior in college make sure you cherish every memory you make. Also take lots and lots of videos and photos. It seems like softball will last forever at...

    How fast to first base?

    Woah 2.85 is definitely fast from what I’ve read. I love watching aggressive base runners. It’s so great to watch a hit to the outfield that would usually be a double be turned into a triple by a speedy runner who runs the bases with aggression. You gotta be careful around that 14-15 age though...
