I am not used to this process at all. Maybe the rec league has always been this way. But, I don't get it. You are encouraged and sometimes forced to play everyone, equally. But 10U and up are reverting to the last full inning's score, to determine a winner.
There is generally a #1 pitcher who can pitch innings 1 and 2, and then, someone else has to pitch.
Also, runs are limited to 4 per inning.
It is barely even softball anymore.
One coach tried to play "fairly," another instructed his girls to run out the clock - so the score would revert back and he would win.
It is supposed to be "for the girls." But is it, when you are forced to play a chess game in order to win?
By the way, is this called "Drop dead" or is that when the game ends, when the clock runs out? I am so confused and it is only Monday.
