    I was sure it was an illegal pitch, and ive seen so many college and professional pitchers, replanting their front foot, but ive only seen Monica Abbott get called for it. Why hasnt it been called when it happens, and just let go?

    Travel vs playing w/friends

    IMO, if your daughter is serious about softball, wants to become the 'best' she can be, wants to be a professional softball player, and has all the desire in the world, she should not have a problem letting go of the rec league, if she wants to become a great ball player. there is plenty of time...

    Natural righty, switch hitting?

    Im a natural righty batting, and ive been working on slap hitting for a little while now.. Now, i think it would be really effective if i could slap the first time, then swing away, then slap and so forth. Being a natural righty, swinging lefty feels different.. I play ASA, along with our...

    Stride vs No stride

    A helpful drill to help with problem two is set up a tee, with a ball.. Have the girl stand in the batter position in the box, but with the bat behind her back. The barrel should be facing the backstop, and the girl should rotate her hips, to hit the ball.. If done properly, this will help with...

    Pitching to the inside and outside corner

    Usually when hitting inside and outside pitches, i adjust where my front foot lands, and how far either way it lands. Any big adjustment would bring the ball to far inside or outside. About the 'cue', when i'm batting, i dont usually watch the pitchers feet, considering i watch her hip the...

    Music at Games

    Coming from a softball player, this would be very distracting to me...But as you said the run scored on a bunt play because the players couldnt hear the coach, in all honesty, that is NOT the musics fault, the girls should know what to do in each situation, and whats happening, etc...I do agree...

    Droped third strike

    I would say, as sluggers says, if they were tagged out or out by the force play, the run should not count. Anybody know the reason behind the drop 3rd strike rule?
