In the championship game today my 11yo DD was called 4 times for illegal pitches in the 2nd inning. I thanked the umpire in-between innings for calling them because I had been after her for almost three weeks to correct what she was doing wrong. After the game I thanked the other coach.
She was called three times for leaping. It was a little nit-picky because IMO it was marginal on whether it was leaping or clearing the hole those inconsiderate right handed pitchers put in the way of lefty pitchers. Fourth time she was called for not pausing with her hands together for 1 second before pitching.
I think she'll listen to me now.
Her best friend is the P2 and had her back. My DD had her revenge. She went 3 for 3 and hit a two RBI double to bring in the runs to win by mercy rule.
PS Semi-final game was fun. Two southpaws throwing 50 in a 4-2 game.
