    DD needs a new bat

    Hi everyone, my DD broke her bat in a game this past weekend. I messaged coresoftball20 a couple of days ago, but have not received a response. Does anyone know if he is on vacation or no longer in business?

    earned runs

    True. Our DD has been pulled off the mound before. Not because of her pitching, but due to fielding errors allowing runs to score. DD plays on a U16 team and strike outs ARE less prevalent at this age group and so, yes, fielders should be backing up their pitcher by making the routine plays...

    earned runs

    That's a good question. She hit one batter, but we included that in her walks.

    earned runs

    Thank you, TMD. We figured it out. Our DD's WHIP calculated to .776

    What is "whip" and how do we figure it out?

    earned runs

    Thank you BT3100. We were just curious, as was our daughter, what her ERA would have been for this tournament.

    earned runs

    Ok. So my wife checked the books. Our daughter allowed 10 walks on the weekend; 2 walks scored on error after 2 outs and 2 walks scored on error before 2 outs; she worked 19 1/3 innings; threw 202 strikes and 82 balls; walked 10 batters and struck out 26. My wife said none of the runs would have...

    earned runs

    Hi guys, hoping someone can clarify something for me. If a pitcher walks a batter and the batter later scores due to fielding error, is this run charged to the pitcher as an earned run? Thank you

    Thinking this isn't a very good bat. Closeout Bats is giving them away at $99 right now.

    Do you really only need 1 pitcher in High School?

    Unfortunately this is the way our dd's high school team is run. There are three very good pitchers, but only one sees about 90% of the action. A total waste of talent if you ask me.

    HE rears its ugly head

    Thanks DNeeld. PC says she is short and stocky and so will not have the advantages of a tall girl with a larger arm circle, but said her muscle mass makes up for it. Could you please elaborate on the comment you made about not having full IR motion? I'm just not understanding that principle...

    HE rears its ugly head

    https://youtu.be/muRbLvlHjJoMaybe a stupid question, but are there videos comparing HE to IR that I can see? I think my DD is/has been taught HE but not sure. Thanks This is a video made at one of her practices.

    Hot out of the wrapper?

    Thanks guys! I'll relay this info to my daughter. By the way, she's been swinging an Easton synergy speed (white/yellow model) and the team's 2015 mako. We figured the end loaded Demarini would swing about the same as the Easton since Easton tends to be a little over sticker weight.

    Hot out of the wrapper?

    Is "hot out of the wrapper" just hype? My DD wanted a CF8 Insane so I gave in and got her one. She was all excited about using it in her next game, but her coach warned her it needed to be broken in first. Low and behold, when she hit the ball, the bat just made a dull thud-like sound and the...

    Mako's on sale at Softball.com

    I saw that deal but my DD wants the 2016. She doesn't like the orange and white color scheme on the 2015. Hoping there is a price drop soon.
