Hello All:
I haven't posted in awhile . Today I am looking for some insight on logic behind batting order?
My daughter plays varsity softball has a bat avg. .510 and bats last. She will be playing college ball in two years, so she can play and hit real well line drives and the occasional long ball over the fence.
My main question is why does her high school coach always keep down in the batting order never moves her up.She is a strong kid mentally but sometimes I overhear talking to her big brother and saying "coach really dont like me cause no matter how good i do i still bat in the bottom of the order no matter what." Sometimes guys she is the only one to reach base first? Also she gets upset cause if team doesnt hit she loses at bats etc...
Can someone explain this logic? Should I ask the head coach why or should I just let it go ?
In travel ball she bats in the 2 hole......
Thanks
