    Bullet Spin and no movement

    My daughter is a senior this year and will be playing for a mid major next year. This past year, her pitching has become not so good! She has been getting pounded and I mean pounded. I didn't know balls could be hit so far. A little background: My daughter, from about 12U, has been a very...

    Question for the umpires: Tournament vs Showcase

    Question: Does your strike zone change when you are umping a tournament vs showcase? I ask this question because it seems to me that the strike zone is getting smaller at these showcases...and I can't understand it. I swear there are more walks at a showcase than true tournaments. It seems...

    Drag foot anchoring

    My daughter has just recently gotten into a bad habit and i've been unable to help her get out of it. During practice, during warm-up, in-between innings, her form is perfect. As soon as a batter steps in the box, she leaves her drag foot almost planted. She does leap, but that drag foot...

    Paid Coaches

    Here's the scenario: My daughter wanted to tryout for a 1st year 14u team this year. She goes to tryouts and makes the team. The exact season costs were never brought up...just generalizations by the head coach saying it would "be in-line with every other team." So, we agree to be on the...
