Running it up

Great job to STCN for running the score up against Bartlett yesterday. 33-0 you really showed them who’s boss!

The game lasted 3 innings. Starters were being switched out in the 1st inning, they were running station to station, not taking extra bases, and then finally stepped off, which is not common in HS. Not much more you can do than that.
The bigger issue is all of these pre-conference games, especially if you are in a decent conference like Dukane. Is it any better for some of these teams to get as many bum-beater games in that they can before conference starts. Most of these scores have been double digits across the board. There is just no point! At least STCN isn't doing that.

The score was 21-0 in first inning before Bartlett recorded an out. I guess you would have either told em not to try or you would have brought your middle school team.
The problem lies with Bartlett players being poor players not with STCN girls playing the game correctly.

Terrible for the game. Play the game right. Score 12-15 runs and call it a day. Shame on those coaches.

So before the 3 hole hitter for StCN had her second AB you suggest they call off the dogs. Explain how you’d do that (in the first inning mind you)?

Like I said, call off the dogs when it’s 12-15 runs. Step off the base. Come on! You know when you’re going to kill a team and don’t give me that oh they could come back and make it a game. SMH
