Fun day. My preference was for my DD to be a catcher, but post 12u she has rarely had a chance to. Starting catcher was on a trip to meet her new college teammates. Started with my not quite broken in Liberty Worth Advanced, decided she could receive and "feel" the ball better with an Easton 1B Mitt I bought for her to catch with when she was in 8u. Good thing we are both southpaws and I have extra gloves in both cars. Starting catcher for other team is one of her club teammates. Had a F5-F2-F5 double play broken up by the runner's head rounding 3rd getting in the way of the throw to 3B, for an error. Hand was flailing around a bit with runners on, need to discuss with her tonight after school. She went 3 for 4 with 3 RBI's, scored once.
DD lost a close CCS playoff game 4-2 against a school whose lead-off hitter and shortstop plays on a 14u team in her org. SS had one error yesterday-- hard shot right at her from my DD. Today 14u and 16u did a 30-minute scrimmage at practice. SS slapped a shallow fly ball into LF. DD playing LF sprints all-out and dives to catch the ball. She hates losing! 3 girls from one team and 4 from the other played in the same rec league.
Only one game today at an Alliance Qualifier. DD not sure if she is C3 or C4 but was told to suit up today to warm-up a pitcher. She didn't play, but helped one of the pitchers track pitches. Doing what she can to help her team.
