Quite obvious that you are what I call a rec ball Dad. To even begin to think that an outfielder is any less valuable on a team than any other position is absurd. Your best athletes on a team are your outfielders. And like one of the earlier posters said if your daughter can pitch 60mph and...
Just wondering how everyone else figures the batting averages for teams. We us the IPad and game changer to score games which takes into effect ROE and FC in calculating the average. But have quickly came to realize that parents only want a bat on ball average. To me this is a very...
Thanks for the information. Just brought up this past weekend and presented as fact. I know of lots of HS coaches that ban other activities during their season.
Ordered a new Demarini CF5 bat for DD. Received it on Friday. Here is the problem, we ordered a 33/22. The knob sticker says it is a 32/22, the sticker on the plastic on the bat says it is a 33/22. It does measure that it is a 33 inch bat. There is no where on the bat other than the knob...
My DD's PC taught her the turnover drop. She is 12 and it is an amazing pitch for her. She has good speed and the drop off is phenomenal. Her TB coach loves it.
Unfortunately control is not her issue. Just throwing hard enough that our inexperienced catchers are not or can not catch even fastballs down the middle.
Doesn't matter how many K's you throw if the batter makes it to 1st on a dropped third strike. Nothing looks overpowering about the pitcher and to the normal ordinary person they look at it as the pitcher's problem when the catcher misses the third strike and the batter runs to first. Lots of...
Mine really throws that fast too. Been clocked at home and at 2 different pitching camps. We are on a new team for rec ball and the dropped third strikes are killing her. She had 11 pitched outs in a 3 inning game and still lost. We do not have a catcher that can catch her effectively. Do...
Never saw this problem coming. Spring rec ball...DD pitches very well. She has a fast ball in in the 53ish range, an awesome drop ball, and a flip change. She is a hitter and a great fielder. Has her head in the game and knows what is going on. The one thing we are missing is a catcher. No...
Can someone please clarify the senerio for me. 12U Pony League Rules. Third strike is dropped by catcher... Does batter have to go immediately toward first or can she go even after turning and going toward her dug out?
