Could someone clue me in on what was going on with the crew in blue at Goshen this weekend ? obviously it was some type of point of emphasis but I don't get it-- UNLESS the player is slow getting in the box why say anything to the batter ? I know it confused several players and coaches.
My dd NEVER steps up to the plate with a foot in / foot out of the box . She , and lots of players like her, gets in the box with both feet in and back arm raised (asking for time to get set ) while she settles in. nothing slow or delaying about it.
This statement or order from the blue telling the players how to get in the box did'nt set too well with me, as long as players are doing it right why tell them how to do it ? I just really don't like blue offering their opinion on how to play the game.
another strange comment was a home plate blue very quietly telling the catcher " nice comeback" after striking out one of our batters in a 0-0 game in the 5th inning after being down in the count 3-0. This was after calling the 3-1 pitch a strike that caught no part of the outside corner. just strange. MD
