    Things College Softball Announcers Can Quit Saying 2022 Edition

    Because Gasso and others are just using it as a strategy because they get a certain number of appeals. Wipe out a grand slam for a runner being 6 inches off a base when no umpire saw it in real time? No thanks. And especially for a home run. How did the runner leaving early affect the result...

    Things College Softball Announcers Can Quit Saying 2022 Edition

    I just meant that the announcers couldn’t say Oklahoma wins (because they finally lost . . . to Texas) until at least the next day when the 2 played again. The thread was “Things Announcers Can Quit Saying”. I wish there was some jeopardy for protesting a call. Like giving the other team an...

    Things College Softball Announcers Can Quit Saying 2022 Edition

    The runner on second base left early is pretty easy to claim. Or the catcher obstructed the runner. Both felt wrong. It’s going to be SOP.

    Oklahoma wins . . . at least for a day.

    Is my DD considered fast...…for her age?

    Yeah, some girls would come in 3rd in a race with a pregnant lady.

    5 Simple Rules for Surviving High School Softball

    I agree with the quitting. After a bad first season high school softball experience, my DD continued to play travel softball but played flag football instead of high school softball. As a bonus, the running at football practice improved her softball game and she got to meet a whole new group...

    You have no idea how much your posts entertain me.

    Oklahoma Recruiting Class

    But Bad News Bear told me I was going to be disappointed. She also has 5 HR’s and is batting over .300. And now he’s ranting about ESPN speed guns because he sometimes watches ESPN and has personal knowledge of their accuracy.

    Oklahoma Recruiting Class

    Bad News Bear thinks he has to always be right. Even when he’s shown to be wrong in black and white. There’s one at every ballpark.

    Rothrock's Grip

    So the best throw bullet spin and the mid tier really spin it?

    Oklahoma Recruiting Class

    Overhyped recruit Mia Williams having a bit of a breakout against Kentucky this weekend. She has 2 HR’s and a double so far. Maybe she’s “seeing” the ball better?

    Rothrock's Grip

    I watch a lot of college softball and bullet spin is the rule, not the exception. The last true backspin riseball I remember is Kelly Barnhill.

    Big 10 softball

    Last night we went to Texas-UCF. Texas had a freshman pitcher from Iowa who was absolutely lights out. She went to the same high school as Iowa basketball star Caitlin Clark. Texas was probably a pretty easy choice for her as opposed to staying near home for any number of reasons.

    Mound improvements between innings.

    Seems fine if you ask the umpire first.

    College has some

    UCF has 9 players from California.

    Eeny Meeny

    In HS, player goes to CF. Pick someone for 1B that can hit and throw her 100 balls every practice. Don’t have her field bunts unless she’s ready.

    Oklahoma Recruiting Class

    You said I would be disappointed if I think she throws high 60’s. She does throw high sixties. And I personally am not disappointed, despite you saying I would be. You are flatly wrong in both of your premises. Maybe Brown can give a clinic when she’s home for summer break. That would be...
