I have already worked five college or JC double headers, first HS Scrimmage is Thursday.
Here in AZ, the state voted to go to the 43' pitching distance this year for all levels (Fr, JV, V). Considering the number of pitchers we had that couldn't get the ball across the plate at 40', I'm a bit wary.... |
Heck, we just had our first local rules meeting of the year. Our season doesn't start until the end of March.

I had my first games of the year last weekend. A div 2 non conference double header. I didnt screw it up too badly. I'm kinda a slow starter and to "warm up" at that level is tough for me after a few months off.

Nightmare
Nice way to start the season
4A Varsity game Behind the plate 4 hour game! Final Score 24-19, the winning pitcher had 28 walks!!!! She had to have thrown over 300 pitches, of which about 8 got me- 3 solid. Was tied 17-17 after 7, ended up playing 8 innings. The third inning went hour and five by itself. Had frost on the grass by end of the game. Was tempted to throw my gear in the dumpster on the way to the truck and head straight to a bar. Feeling it today for sure. |

The winning pitcher had 28 walks? My DD's HS's JV pitching staff only had 18 walks all season last year.

Either way, I feel your pain. We all get one of those games, hopefully you're done for the season. Speaking of which.... I went to our State Evaluation meeting this year. The evaluations consisted of rotating on and off the field (2 innings at each position) over the course of 3 games. The first two games (which was my rotation) were JV teams.... As I was watching, getting ready for my plate eval, the pitcher couldn't throw a strik and her team couldn't get an out - finally, the evaluators called the PU guy off the field and put me on - - - with a ball 1 ball on the batter, an out and a runner on 3rd! |
