feel sorry for me? Why because I questioned you. We aren't on the field now, so take the time and explain yourself.
What is the rule on the strike zone. What do I tell my kid who is pitching by the rule book but you refuse to call it. What do I tell my 10 year old daughter who pitches one down the gut at the belt and he misses it.
I tell you what I tell her. There is nothing I can do for you Honey, keep pitching, you can't argue the call it's a judgement call on for the umpire.
Then I look at my assistant coach and say good grief he is killing us, unless he is calling it both ways then I say well at least he is consistent. In many cases it benefits me when you do call it tight, because she outpitches most of the teams in her league and my hitters aren't so good.
OK, I have to deal with it, but you didn't answer the question. ASA rules, what is the strike zone. I don't care if they are 10 or 20, if they are 4 feet tall or 6 feet tall.
The answer is, it is the same rule for everyone. How can you quote the rule book all day long and then call this one a judgement call, the strike zone is spelled out. I am not talking about the close calls, that could go either way. I am talking about intentionally, knowingly, braggedly changing the strike zone.
Telling others, I have a quote "small strike zone"
PS.. Again you don't have to feel sorry for me, this isn't my life. Lighten up, lift the chip from your shoulder, I am not questioning your ability, only your application of the rule.
