Subj : Re: All Blacks To : Bucko From : Irish_Monk Date : Mon Sep 05 2022 21:02:21 Bu> I blame myself for my sons injury.. I pitched him too much when he was Bu> young.. Little league wasn't the issue as there were rules. But Modified Bu> baseball and 1 Little league game was my undoing. His first complete Bu> game at 11 he tossed 155 pitches. His last game as a modified pitcher Bu> for the school he threw 132 pitches, both of them were my fault, the Bu> modified game he had a no hitter going into the 7th and I was keeping a Bu> pitch count. He started the inning with 115 pitches, the coach looked at Bu> me and I said he's got a no no going, let him go. When he hit 128 Bu> pitches he hit the wall. He couldn't find the plate and his elbow was Bu> way down. I looked at the coach and he knew, he pulled him. He got a Bu> combined no hitter but it wasn't the same.. LOL it would have been his Bu> 4th of his career.. Still went down as a No HItter though. I guess its a good thing they are educating parents/coaches on this a lot more now. When I posted my message I didnt mean to make it sound like the coach or parent is actually trying to harm the kid playing. And I dont think I would have let my dad take me out if I had a no hitter going. So its tough. You want the best for your kid and hoping he gets the best and sometimes maybe you can possibly go too far not knowing it. |10I|02rish_|10M|02onk ....
