I'm lost here, 66 games and your #1 has 58 AB's? I would think 66 games, the AB's would be well over 100..... even counting the BB's and HbP equals 67 total.... She only bats once a game?- CoachKevin

When success shows up....
It's just not TB.... seen College coaches do exactly the same thing. A few years ago player had one of the worse swings I've seen in a long time, she hit .400 + with 8 HR that summer.... plays for a pretty successful DIII school, coach doesn't like her swing and changes it. She comes back to us...- CoachKevin

Runner on 2nd signaling pitch location to batter
Well to be honest if that was true... then why the drastic changes in BA when the Astros were at Home vs on the Road? You cannot tell me at the MLB level, knowing a breaking pitch is coming 100% isn't an advantage- CoachKevin

Just a question, if you're not making cuts then why have a tryout?- CoachKevin

What to do when a coach teaches something blatantly wrong and dangerous
The simple fact that the coach said, "that's why my DD is hitting and yours isn't"... I would be looking for another team ASAP.- CoachKevin

interference by 3rd base coach??
She didn't take home, there was NO play at the plate... Backdoor at third... maybe, except it was a wild throw and from the sounds of it away from the catcher, so I doubt a backdoor play as well.- CoachKevin

Parent has a problem with me as coach (long)
While I agree the HC should back his AC's... it really goes the other way, the AC's have to back the HC. If you don't agree with what the HC is doing, say your piece and then either go with what the HC does, or leave simple as that. Staying where the Coaches are not in agreement is a set up...- CoachKevin
