    Sometimes you can’t go with your canned strategies….should have been able to see that Pease dominated the last 2 games. Her low pitch count in todays 1st game meant you should have rode her into the 2nd. Instead coaches went with a pre planed thought process. It lost them the game in my...

    I think that she is focusing on hitting the bottom of the ball which is part of the home run hitting theory. It provides the lift and launch angle you need to lift the ball over the fence. Hitting the middle tends to produce line drives and hitting the top of the ball creates ground balls...

    I would start Pease 1st game and if we can hit and earn runs and get a lead then I would have JC or Enter come in. That allow you to start Pease in game 2. That would give this team the chance at taking both games and getting the much needed sweep.

    Great that we got that win! Nice to see that Chavez sees the ball and makes solid contact at almost every at bat. That kid is rocking! Not sure about the effort by the right fielder in tracking down that fly ball but maybe the wind pushed it around, hard to tell. Overall the defense did...

    Strange that we have a pitcher that ranks in the top 10 in NCAA in strike outs and has a very low BB rate yet we still can’t win games. The ratio of hitters to pitchers is 1-9. How perfect would a pitcher have to be to over come those odds. The hitting coach at OU says a hitter has to learn...

    The bat manufacturers have spent massive amounts of money and have a huge amount of data that says a ball that is hit in the sweet spot of a composite bat and in the center ball of the will have a higher exit velocity. Sweet spot and center of the ball is the best method to achieve exit...

    Don’t look at MLB…different game and different skill set. with a larger diameter bat and a smaller ball the physics are a little different. Also the skill set of a MLB player is entirely different. This is a classic male thought process that is never thought out. Alot to include ….wood bats...

    When you practice swing for the fence you are all in with a hard fast swing and predict where the ball will be. To be a good change up hitter you need to have a very controlled swing To make contact. Seems like Gopher hitters don’t track the ball well and tend to pull their eyes off the ball...

    okay I missed the first 2 innings of the 2nd game on Sunday. So I guess Pease was missing the plate and hit a couple of batters, seems hard to believe so I went back today to watch it, but I can’t seem to find it, only game one , anybody know where I can find it?

    One of the things I found interesting was the announcers said that only Michigan has committed to providing the equipment for play review in baseball and softball. Makes me wonder if the Gopher program is committed to video review or not? You got a love the commitment, the Pac 12 had in...
