    These socks

    My DD has a pair with a couple of holes in them where she has been spiked on plays at the plate, absolutely refuses to throw them away. Nothing like those however.

    A Rawlings Glove AD might say “No” to?

    I like the one review for it. "takes up the entire room"

    Unlimited vs. Other 2 pc bats

    If she's ok with the feedback on mishits I'd roll with it.

    PWR CRBN comparisons of different years?

    pwr crbn has different internals, I have no idea if it makes a difference other than they sound a little different. Could maybe make the pwr crbn a little more end loaded ?‍♂️ According to DD it feels pretty close to her GA, it's her cold weather/cage bat now.

    Playing up (School Ball) ???????

    For softball we've been lucky and had 2 good head coaches so far, one did ride an arm for an entire season, but she was all for it and didn't plan to play in college. Baseball on the other hand, you can apparently buy your kids way onto the varsity team. Boneheaded fielding & baserunning...

    Two calls from last night:

    Sorry, that was an abbreviated statement. It is definitely preferred to have umpires at JV games, it's great for development (of players and umpires), however wins and losses don't have a post season consequence for JV.

    What’s in your first aid kit?

    Two calls from last night:

    We've had umpires not show for JV games and the coaches did exactly as you described, really for JV it doesn't matter. I'm guessing it's a situation where you have an ump call in to their coordinator that they can't make it, coordinator calls the AD and the AD doesn't see the message right...

    What should she work on?

    Just to double check, is this the Antonelli version of the drill? I do like how he explains the whys a little better than Teacherman

    Two calls from last night:

    As long as we're venting, last night, two line drives land in the middle of the foul line, both ruled foul.

    What should she work on?

    I greatly appreciate the advice, hopefully we will get to try the SnF drill this weekend.

    First time Ghost Dad

    Recently on a bat testing youtube channel they compare a BBCOR, BESR, slow pitch and then I think a 2020 GA 34/26 hitting baseballs. The GA held up and was getting 115+ exit velos, so maybe DDs need to hit the gym and start swinging heavy bats, then they won't break anymore :)

    What should she work on?

    Faster than she looks, she has really long legs so they don't look like they are moving fast but she covers ground. This ball was very high to the left center gap.
  14. Intheboondocks

    What should she work on?

    14u. Overall, she tends to get under the ball in games, but not in the cage or off the tee.

    HS Softball Started

    It was a little touch and go but they had their first game on Monday, DD pitched the first 3 innings and then caught the rest of the game.

    I've never seen anything that restricts batting glove colors

    Can you get chest protectors? My daughter is complaining about hers being too big now (never complained last year, and she's taller now ? )
