Horrible obstruction call UCLA vs stanford
It is a catch but I do not see how wording it in front is safer. Catcher still going to make the play. Never seen a catcher watch a by to avoid obstruction. I prefer the impede language and catcher does what they want.- daywalkerdad

Are you against Title IX? Women’s sports all together? Truly do not understand but not wanting to assume. Human vs Human does away with women’s sports.- daywalkerdad

NAIA ruling on Transgender athletes
Just wanted to clarify. Title IX guarantees equal opportunity for women athletes. To achieve this you must have separate arenas for competition. The exclusive portion of this is Title IX . Title IX is great BTW.- daywalkerdad

Dropped third strike play
A retired runner is a retired runner. Thus the distinction between the two in the rule book. A runner has a right to an unoccupied base. If in this case you treat as a runner the then wouldn’t they be safe or out when they reach first?- daywalkerdad

Dropped third strike play
Before you apply any rule, you must determine what the player going to first is. Is the player a runner, a batter runner, a batter, or non of them? IMO, the player is not a runner or batter runner. Applying rules that references them is not correct.- daywalkerdad

Improving consistency
One thing DD has taken to heart is just make the next pitch. You can’t go back in time. The other thing is to make sure it is a team game. The W or L goes with the team. If they are facing good hitters with a tight zone, probably giving up some runs. Their team should also be able to score...- daywalkerdad

Improving consistency
Remember pitchers have bad days. MLB pitchers will have 3-4 bad starts a year. Best remedy is for the team to have deep pitching so when they have a bad day they are not taking one for the team. A few not trying to locate and be perfect practice days do wonders for DD- daywalkerdad
