Next time youre at a game, listen to the third base coach. For some reason, many fastpitch coaches feel it necessary to coach batters after every pitch. Do this, do that, watch your stride, watch your load, bla bla bla. After every pitch! If a coach has to coach from third, he/she didn't do it enough in practice. Let them play. Games are for the girls, practices are for the coaches. All these coaches do is make the batter think so much about what she is doing wrong, she cant function. Then she strikes out, the coach says, "Its ok, get em next time." Then the next time, the coach does it all over again. Can a girl ever go up and bat just once without a coach coaching her?!
