No he didn't yank players for striking out or not getting a hit but he did make girls run after games for striking out looking.... if the ball is put into play he didn't.
Well, I won’t say that’s wrong, but I will say I sure don’t think the best way to teach hitting is to make the players run. I’m of the mind that the time spent running could be better spent teaching and practicing hitting.
Also I should have added to my OP that when they made an error her would pull a girl and sit them down for an inning or 2 or possibly the whole game....talk to the girl about the error and usually put the girl back in the game depending how the girl responded to what he was talking about. It wasn't to embarass them it was to let them know that it wasnt acceptable to make that error(yes everyone makes errors) but not 2 or 3 in a row or shouldn't on a top travel team....
That’s a mighty big explanation to have left out.
I’m confused. You say they got benched for making an error, then later you say it wasn’t acceptable to make 2 or 3 in a row. Kinda tough to make more than one error when you’re on the bench after the 1st.
