85 degrees and sunny. 14u tournament
First game my dd pitched a gem, 2 hitter but somehow we lost 2-1.
second game we ran into a buzz saw and the better team won. Unfortunately that was not us. Due to some girls who were unable to play, we had a left handed shortstop, my dd, I thought those days were behind us.
Third game. My dd pitched another gem and got the win. Two things stood out
1. the umpiring was the worst I have seen since 10u. One completely blown call, one completely botched rule application and one completely missed call. One of them ended up favoring us, but the other 2 cost us 2 runs.
2. Toward the end of the game one of the other fathers mentioned that a D1 college coach was watching the first 2 innings (she had a triple in the first inning), had the gun on my dd. Then asked him what her name was, where she goes to school and what grade is she in.

DD played Alabama ball yesterday with 3 HBP. All 3 from one pitcher, and she may have a new nickname from the team, BooBoo. She hadn't been HBP this year before seeing the wild thing.
