    I/R- Rollover drop

    Slugger little confused with your post but I don't dought for one min that you daughter had a great drop ball. Just question what we call it. FACT: The peel and the rollover are *NOT* different pitches. They are the same pitch, except the rollover uses lots of IR, and a "pure" peel uses no IR...

    Help with a rule

    To clear up situation a bit......ball was bunted down the first base line about 10ft down the line. 1st base and catcher were both attempting to play the ball. Runner made contact with 1st baseman ball had not ben fielded (hard to say who would have fielded the ball with out the contact)

    Call reversed ?

    Have R1 on second, R2 on first batter hits a line drive by the 3rd baseman but lands foul by about 10 feet in left field. Ump ruled fair ball and later stated that 3rd baseman touched the line drive as it went past her. Now here is where it gets interesting, batter saw that ball was well foul...

    Safe haven and catcher training

    Input on teaching hitter how to read pitches

    I agree with most of this post......My only concern is if you are watching the follow through then you are not watching the ball that has already been thrown and traveling toward the hitter. I just don't think a hitter can watch the follow through and still hit the ball....If you are watching...
