As a side note to the thread, has anyone noticed more kids with diabetes playing the game? I have seen two pitchers and several other players (including one of the best catchers in this state) with diabetes this year alone. Coaches have been very open stating that "#42 has diabetes just so you know" or "pitcher has (this or that) condition."
Had a game where this catcher started to miss balls. She never misses balls. Knowing she is diabetic, I asked if she was okay. She said yes, but didn't seem like she did. I called time and coach came out, he talked to her and put in replacement catcher. Turns out it was related to her condition. Coach ended up losing the game, but was more concerned with his player than the loss.
