Right now 12 YO DD would not swing at a beach ball, she is ducking on every pitch.
Umpire even commented to our coaches that it might seem I am not calling the high pitches correctly but your batters are ducking, I think the comment was aimed at my DD.
I was trying to be funny but it is an...
It is never going to happen again. :)
The game was a lot of fun with a lot of nice hits and plays in the field.
Both HCs agreed to the pitching so I am not upset or complaining about it, was just curious about becoming involved. If we lost it would have been OK to, it was a fun game.
I have been there and it is no good. We have a good fun team this year and everyone will be sorry to see the season end. Hopefully next year will be the same,
Extra innings on Saturday, DD has never played 8 innings before. We were the home team.
We were down by a run, bases loaded, with 1 out and our 2 best hitters coming up.
Best hitter stuck out.
Next hitter, with 2 strikes on her, hit a rocket to the fence. Game over. Lot of fun for us. :)...
DD is on a gluten free diet, we will not be going anywhere near the concession stand.
It hasn’t been an Issue yet but my plan is to send the venue an Email and hopefully get a response then bring a printed copy to the park.
We will see how that works but I am sure we will be allowed to bring...
Yes, the umpire made the right call after I yelled at them
Yes, it is Rec. Local Rule so the umpire is out of the picture. The coaches need to know the rules and not make them up as they go along.
If or when we shop for a TB Team we are going to look for a Team with a schedule that meets our personality. We are not going to join a Team that plays a tourney every weekend, but we are also not going to join a Team that plays 1 tourney a month. That is just us.
There is no right answer to...
I am the parent. :)
2 rules things happened in the game yesterday.
Situation 1:
Runner on 3rd, batter walks. 3rd base coach wants her to keep going to 2nd. Batter-runner stops on 1st then jumps off the base 10 feet or so and stops. PU calls the batter-runner out. Everyone on our Team is...
Short answer is absolutely not.
Longer answer is it depends on what level she wants to pitch at. The lower level the Team the faster she will get circle time.
One good offseason she should get a lot of circle time in rec. or a lower level TB Team, it will take longer to pitch on a higher...
I have a few hitting things in our garage that are collecting dust.
If your DD is practicing by herself it looks marginal, if she is practicing with the team or you it looks worthless.
I would send the AD an Email.
I could not find the rule or consequence for violating it but 5 players on the same Team comes to my mind. It does not apply to MS players so I do not know the rule, I do not think it takes effect until they start HS so I do not know how it can be enforced for...
