My DD plays on a 12u team and we were playing up in a 14u Open Class tournament. Ended up placing second so not too shabby. Anyways, earlier in the day I caught this gem on camera. It was a high pitch and the batter squared to bunt it but pulled the bat back. My DD was already in motion and got the ball out so quickly and to 2nd that the runner turned around and tried to back to first!! For being a 12u team playing up in a 14u Open Class tournament, they were giving my DD a lot of respect. In fact, after pool play, my DD asked if she could lob her throws to second while "coming down" between innings. Sandbag, so to speak because he didn't have a single steal attempt during pool. I told her no and to use that time to get better. Anyways, I have been incredibly proud of her lately. She is the one that drags me outside to help her hit and do some long toss, not vice versa. During Quarantine, she continued to work and her hard work is paying off. Let me know what you think. She is getting quicker and stronger but can always take some feedback.
