    Doublewall vs. Composite

    if you cant keep your composite bat warm in fallball then you dont need to use a composite during fall. they will crack in cold temp

    Doublewall vs. Composite

    i just read the rule book and warmers are NOT illegal, warming the bat is not altering the physical structure of the bat and we will continue to use ours untill told other

    Thoughts on a crazy idea?

    if your pitchers can command fastballs and changeups then you have a chanced to beat anyone. keep your #1 off the mound and give your #2 the chance to prove to you she can pitch. if you are calling pitches and they are hitting their spots and you still get hammered then maybe you need to let...

    Step-Style Pitching

    Revfire owners help please

    2 Seam vs. 4 Seam Grip

    4 seam is the normal fast ball and the same grip is used for the dropball. we use the 2 seam grip as just another pitch, it will tail in or out @ the plate depending on witch seam she puts more pressure on. this is just what we do, everyone has their own opinion
