    YOU did our game last week?!

    Dropped third strike play

    "Merely running in front of a batted ball or jumping over a batted ball is not interference, even if it may be distracting to the fielder." USA RS 33

    NFHS Pitcher Win/Loss when pitching 5 innings

    My DD’s actual HS stats bear no resemblance to what is in GC, Maxpreps, or the state site. The coaches have subs do GC, so it’s anything goes. My level of care is zero though.

    NFHS Pitcher Win/Loss when pitching 5 innings

    So, for a 5 inning game, the starter would need to pitch at least 3 innings to be credited with win. It sounds like in your case, the reliever would get the credit.

    Things College Softball Announcers Can Quit Saying 2022 Edition

    I'm over announcers just not having the slightest concept of obstruction. Last night BYU / UCF game, they were incredulous for 10 minutes about an out that was overturned, and never even once had the inkling of a seed of a thought that it was because of obstruction. The word obstruction was...

    First PGF, What to expect.....

    A kid I coached (and who will be on our HS team next year) is on the RITG team. Of course, the coach's DD goes to our rival HS next year. That guy has had 3 stud DD's who wreak havoc on us.

    College Roster Sizes, sorry some of you don't get to go with us~

    The roster doesn't "need" to be that large, but having those players definitely helps: Practice - you always have runners, players to fill out numbers for drills, set up / tear down, catch bullpens, shag, have enough for same squad scrimmages, etc. Home games - there's a bunch of things to get...

    HS Softball Started

    CT here. Pitchers and catchers report today. Full team tryouts start Monday. Defending conference champs and state semi-finalist, but lost our ace to graduation (pitching at a very good D3). New ace is very good though, and the lineup is full of returning bats, so should be another good...

    What to do about pitching line up? (8u rec)

    It’s 8u rec with coach relief, so there’s only one thing to remember - WINNING MATTERS. Have the ace get used to pitching with a wig on, something the contrasts her natural hair color. When the games start to count, pitch her max innings with the wig, then close out the games without the wig...

    HS Softball Started

    Wow. In CT season starts mid March. We squeeze the 20 games in a month and a half (3/30 to 5/13), then conference playoffs, then state playoffs, all wrapped by early June. So last year, 26 games total, plus 2 scrims.

    Varsity has already played 20 games (or is that a sum of all 3 teams)? Our entire regular season is only 20 games.
