Middle school ball. 2nd year head coach. Has made some questionable decisions...
Bases loaded, 1 out. Coach gives batter bunt sign... 1st pitch... foul. bunt sign again... 2nd pitch... foul. Bunt sign again(?) 3rd pitch... foul... batter out.
No "team" cheers are allowed.
DD pitching last night against a good hitting team. 3-2 count on the batter. Coach to DD: "throw it down the middle". So DD throws it down the middle... triple. I told DD next time ANY coach tells her to throw it down the middle, nod, and hit her corners. If the coach questions her simply say "it didn't go where I wanted it".
If the catcher is on base at the end of our offense side of the inning, no one warms up the pitcher while the catcher is getting their gear on.
No, I'm not looking for advice, just wanted to vent a little.
