Watching our local small school high school team, they played a team three times this season. All three games they faced the same opposing right-handed pitcher who throws around 53 mph. Her delivery was to start toward the 1st base side of the rubber, stride further to the side to what my estimation was outside the lane at least 50% of the time (but never called), and create an outside-in pitch using the angle as an advantage on top of a screwball type motion. The defense was shifted heavily toward right field with the assumption batters couldn't hit it toward the 3rd base side. This shrunk the effective area of the field down to about 3/4-2/3 of full size. 5 to 8 strikeouts per game, so most balls were put in play, but a lot of atom balls. These are not advanced hitters; no travel ball, no private hitting lessons, just HS and summer rec ball.
