He is probably referring to last years 5A player of the year now pitching for East Bernard. She is as advertised and hits the ball a ton. I would walk her every at-bat unless I had a very good pitcher.


She wasn't the 5A player of the year. She was the TEXAS player of the year. Just so happens she was at a 5A school. Any school, any class would have their hands full against her at the mound.

You can walk Show every time, but it's not her bat that is the issue, it's her arm.  Show has been eligible maybe 7 games and has only given up 2 hits.  Good luck to all who face her.  East Bernard is a legit State contender.

 

Show may not be the biggest bat in that lineup. Forntenberry can hit the ball a ton. Can't walk everyone.

17-0.  Looks like "Show" time had 4 hits, plus threw a 5 inning no hitter with 14 K's.  Hard to top that.

Show is a great player, no doubt, and EC had no chance, period. Don't fool yourself with those gaudy stats, though. The guy behind the plate was obviously athletically infatuated with Show. He rung up EC batters with pitches at the ankles on a routine basis, and even called a strike on an EC batter that was so far outside, the EB catcher could not even catch it.

If it was routine as you stated, then it was his/her strike zone!

 

I'm sure EC got no calls what so ever! :rolleyes:

Then "his / her strike zone" varied depending who was pitching and who was at bat. I did not see ankle high pitches called strikes when EC pitched, nor did I see a pitch so outside it was uncatchable called a strike when EC pitched

 

Again. if you missed it badndn, it appeared to me the ump was athletically infatuated with Show. He got in a groove calling pretty much everything she threw a "strike"... wherever it went. Two TV cameras were set up to see her pitch, and it appears the guy got caught up in "the Show". The stats will show ZERO walks by Show, go figure. 

 

Did you see the game? Were you there?

    • Will probably be released by the Democrats come September.  Sound familiar?
    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.  
    • He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up. 
    • I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success.
