She's the best IMOWasn’t there, didn’t know. Penta is one of best in the country, though, so that’s super impressive.

Where was the other team that "needs her" during tryouts? Looking back over the last 10 years we were lucky that DD was always the #3 pitcher at the start of every season.. and by the final game in every single year she ended up being the #1. It was the grind that built her into a real pitcher. I would suspect that if she was given the title as #1 pitcher day 1 that she would have never pushed herself to her limits. Things like who's number 1, 2 or 3 in fall ball mean little. The game sorts out who the real #1 is. The player needs to have the fire to push to be #1 We must do the thing we think we can not do.
I agree, not to mention they are not robots and sometimes you need everyone. It is really good to not have a big gap between #1-3.Fighting to stay #1 can be just as motivating as becoming #1. All depends on the team and the girls, of course.

Or if a team has rallied from like 3 runs down the game prior to yours, look out. Lol. Big difference pitching to hot confident bats.
Many people think the starting pitcher gets the number one spot (title)
However after a team starts getting on them hitting. It's really important to have
a pitcher who can come in and shut down the hitters that are already hitting.
That title is very Worthy!
Also was just thinking about what you wrote here. Did you mean that for 10 years straight you either changed teams or 2 new pitchers came onto your DD team that were better than she was? I would love to know the answer as she ended up being so successful.Where was the other team that "needs her" during tryouts?

Most coaches like to win and they aren't putting better players on the bench or not playing (pitching) them. Are you winning games and tournaments?
