I never understood why women use the smaller ball for slow pitch and/or when batting during co-ed games. I mean, many of these women played fast-pitch at some point in their lives. If a 12-year old girl can manage to catch, throw, and hit the 12" ball, what's the logic about going to the smaller ball once they're "grown up"?
And, if a woman is pitching in co-ed, why doesn't she get to throw the small ball?
Don't get all wound up - this is mostly rhetorical.

About 5-6 years ago there was a proposed change to eliminate the 11" ball from the Co-rec game. The council member I was with covered that change in the Player Rep meeting while I covered another change in a different group.
I caught up to him coming out of that committee and the women were still hollering and laughing at him for such an absurd proposal. |
