Taken batters to full counts and depending on how many the batter fouls off helps to elevate a pitch count. If they want to have him around the rest of the season no matter if he has a no hitter going you still stick by the pitch count you set for the kid. It's not about the kid, it's about the team . [/quote] I understand all this, and again I'm not questioning the coach. I'm just saying, 0 runs, 0 hits, and he usually doesn't walk a lot of people, there would have to be a lot of foul balls and errors. [b]What would you consider a high pitch count?[/b][/quote] It's all relative. In the grand scheme of things what does a no hitter against Ozen your freshman year really matter? I would rather have him healthy and fresh in the playoffs and the next 3 years of his career than throw a no hitter in a meaningless game.
