Last night was the 1st time my DD has ever seen a changeup; She knew she was in trouble on a 2-2 count and did an all Arm swing and missed the ball by a mile. P threw it again to strike out the next batter and I thought she was going to drill a hole in the batter box the way she spun like a top.
Next time DD was up P threw it again on a 0-2 count; DD was a little bit prepared and fouled it off. After a few more fastballs, hit a weak grounder to 1st on a changeup.
Some parents on our Team asked if the ball was slipping out of the P’s hand, we apparently live a sheltered life. Somehow the ball kept slipping out of the P hand when DD was up, she couldn’t get a fastball by her.
It was fun to watch. Not as enjoyable as being a neutral observer but it is great to see good P that works hard on their game.
