If your 11 d/ds cant learn something about pitching from Michele Smith, theres no hope for you and that is about as ignorant thing as I've ever heard. You dont just miracalize gold medals around your neck. You dont just accidently become 1 of the top 3 pitchers of all time.
But I agree... They could at least use a softball graphic on ESPN.

I know of a complex nearby that has eight fields, and everyone of them have a pitching plate that is actually made of wood. I have always considered this an odd material for a pitching plate, but that is what they are all made of us. Does this mean, following your reasoning, that while I am at that complex, I should refer to the pitching plate as a "woody?"
