    The quest for 60

    Exactly, I used to quote Hal from chapter 6 in his book "you were born a girl, it doesn't mean you have to throw like one" or " why are we working on change ups?" Congrats

    Not knowing John Gay, I did look him up...I found a softball clinic pitching handout

    e Well shoot.... Came in to binge read and saw this. Totally agree Ken. John was a good one. In DD's earlier days, he was a fixture at VGSA tournaments and we enjoyed his company, stories and spirit so much. Always supportive to the kids, talking the game, teaching the game, enjoying...

    other DFP DDs making a name for themselves

    Interesting word choice. Ha. She decided to eat shellfish before flying down to San Diego. Not the best choice. Feeling a bit green. Compounded with a back injury she got in weightlifting a couple weeks ago, the stiff and sick Pac-Man is now watching until next week. Slow start but she...

    Notre Dame v. Cal

    I wish I could. But I was actually home cleaning gutters this weekend. I don't start going to the tournaments until Palm Springs or in this case Fullerton. Secondhand through family texts, we weren't great in the circle or at the plate all game long and then woke up in the seventh-inning...

    Does a change up really change ?

    I don't have an actual point. I just figured, through the natural progression of things, this would be a topic coming up soon and I wanted full credit for starting it. L

    Jess Alister is relentless. So impressed with her work ethic and commitment. She's still at the very beginning of a very very long career. One of my favorites to watch .

    Facing a live batter in a tunnel

    BP fastballs for hitters is Coach's work. But if the pitcher is going out there without her hands tied behind her back then I am all for it. There's a lot to be learned in live situations at practice on both sides. Gaps in swing paths to bad change ups, The immediate feedback is great. And if...

    When is the best time of the year to reach out to coaches?

    Yes, sorry, that was my intent. Bad word choice on my part. Thanks

    When is the best time of the year to reach out to coaches?

    If I may add, I'm not a fan of emails at all. But if your daughter is going to do that during season, you might consider commenting about how the team did the past weekend. Just like any good conversation, Making it all about you during their season might get a lukewarm response .Letting them...
