8U Explosion
" The mean green machine"
Guys and gals,
I have an 8U team, and we played a tournament on Easter weekend, needless to say we placed 2nd but could have been an easy win for us. the situation that killed us was as follows:
we are on defense, there is 1 out and 2 runners on, one on second and one on third, batter hits and my shortstop tries to make the play at home but no out, next batter hits and my 3rd base tried to make the play at home but no out, so now they have already scored 2 extra runs and we haven’t gotten an out yet, so I finally had them get the out at 1st, and we did but another score came in, the next batter popped up and we caught it.
My question to y'all is, what strategy could I have used to play that inning differently?
