We all know that the strike zone varies from umpire to umpire, batter to batter.
My Daughter plays in 10U (turned 11 in April) and is 5'6" 160ish. It is getting to be very hard for her as the umpires seem to get stuck on low strikes for her that are below her knees. Most of the girls on her team are much shorter and what is called for her would be strikes for them. How do we "protect" the strike zone with out completely messing with her swing? Last weekends tourney she did very well (9 for 12), but got called on a strike once at her shins and twice swinging trying to bend down to hit what she thought might be called a strike.
Thank you all for such a great forum, I have been reading for weeks and learning alot!
