    Hotty Toddy

    KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Ole Miss softball capped a historic SEC Softball Tournament by making some history of its own. The No. 8-seeded Rebels (40-18) beat No. 6 seed LSU (41-18) by a 5-1 count in the championship game Saturday night at Lee Stadium. It was Ole Miss’ first appearance in the title...

    Crazy things you see on the way to softball

    I still remember the sound that Mt St Helens made when it went.

    I had a dream

    I had a dream OK, blatent ripoff but it's still a good line. It can't be! Oh the agony! Not another ripoff, just deal with it. Talking about dealing with it. It's been tough dealing with the dreaded Database error disease. DD went from Babe Ruth to Mendoza, Sandy Koufax to David...

    Alex Hugo's quick growth in power

    Does anyone know how she developed so much more power after hitting only 4 home runs as a Senior in high school? Definitely wasn't highly recruited out of high school. Nice hitting model to emulate. Alex Hugo—Must See TV | Hitting With Torque Alex Hugo Bio - Georgia Official Athletic Site

    Swing thoughts

    Her tendency has been to have T-Rex arms and having an all rotational swing so the last couple months she has been working on getting her arms going before contacting the ball and getting them to full extension. It's been tough to get her going on the change but this is where she has gotten so...

    Glove advice

    Anybody have any advice on this glove? She mostly plays pitcher then 3rd and outfield. Miken Super Soft Series: MS1134FP Fastpitch I'm want to find a good 11 3/4 inch glove for my 8 turning 9 later this year. It looks like the Shoeless Jane 11 3/4 is a nice glove but it might be a little heavy...

    Innings pitched and games played at 10U

    Looking through some of the major tournaments the other day I looked up a couple of the teams websites and came upon a team that had played 95 games this spring and summer. It got me thinking, so I checked and as my DD completes her spring and summer season this Monday she will have played in 82...

    This is getting really old

    This is getting really old. Another tournament shortened by rain. My DD's TB team has done very well this year so far but keeps getting rained out so they can't build any momentum which a young B team needs. They made the championship game in one open tournament and 1 seed for Sunday in another...

    Bat girl for a day

    Fun day for my DD, she still has her jersey on that she was given for the second night now. She has been to many clinics and the coaches and players are always a class act.

    Fun with nerf ball when it's raining

    Here's my DD working on her I/R with a Nerf ball. She's been working hard to improve her motion and hand positioning by doing allot of the football drills. She's just turned 8 but is continually improving her speed and control. She's been starting to make me flinch since I'm so close so I...

    Why didn't you say that yesterday!

    So my DD started trying to get a good pitching spiral using a football. Her overhand is great and any boy would be envious of the spiral she gets. She has had limited success so far underhand. I have shown her how to do it and tried about every way I could think of to have her use as a que. Palm...

    Back at pitching after some time off

    It was such a nice day today DD and I went back at pitching this afternoon. After three weeks off, for me a shinny new knee and DD three weeks off after going after it for over a year. You might have read some of the previous threads, “Never sharper after her layoff!”, DD added 5 MPH with razor...

    Sore finger tips and blisters

    The last couple times pitching my DD has been getting sore finger tips for the first time. She has been slowly but steadily progressing but recently took a big jump in speed. Don't know if it's just the extra speed of her release or if it's overuse. Just wondering what others have experienced...

    When does the coach tell pitchers when they are going to pitch?

    My DD had her first 10 tourney recently and on the first day she was told she wasn't going to pitch but to warm up just in case the pitcher needed to be pulled. Found out the next day that she was going to pitch against a much better team that day. Nothing like pitching against a really good 2nd...

    Kodus to my WIP

    Kudos to my WIP My little work in progress 7YO 1st grader is just chugging along, raising the bar bit by bit. She has now pitched in last years fall season and this spring so she has had plenty of game experience. In her last game she started her pitching off by striking out the first 7 batters...

    Thoughts about DD pitching in BB

    My 7yo DD also plays on a BB team and at first I told the coach that she wasn't going to pitch. When I taught her how to pitch a BB last summer it seemed to effect her throwing motion after she would field the ball. A little to much leg lift. They keep putting her at SS as her fielding and...

    Creepy Coach

    Link to an article about a coach you would never want your DD to be around. Just think, he coached at a HS my DD will eventually be going to. Players sent to find dates for softball coach | Local News | The Seattle Times

    The Power Pause

    Part observation and part question. My DD has started taking some lessons to get ready for the season and the instructor and ex top pitcher threw some pitches during the session. It looked so effortless; the speed of the ball leaving his hand in comparison of the effort he put into throwing it...
