I feel I'm getting more consistent, which makes it more frustrating when I throw wild ones...cos I know that I can do it now!<br /><br />High Point - Two strike outs in one inning. Maybe they weren't perfect strikes, but they swung for them and we closed them out for a quick turnaround.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02712137996027268023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16084768.post-37865307554277715792009-05-29T12:13:47.551+01:002009-05-29T12:13:47.551+01:00Low Point - Striking out in the last innings at th...Low Point - Striking out in the last innings at the top of the order. I was on full count and lost my nerve, changed my mind at the last minute and swung. I should have left it for the walk.<br /><br />High Point - my solid base hit. Having walked twice in the game already and having barely swung at the ball in the tournament, I was really pleased to get a nice hit. It just all came together and felt really smooth. I just need to remember how I did it now and refine it!<br /><br />Lessons Learnt - If the throw isn't clean and straight to the glove, move for it. It is better to come off the base and make the catch than try to cling to the base and muck it up. You can always look for the tag after the catch if you miss the force on the base, it's more fun that way anyway :)Vichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08528141209880282619noreply@blogger.com
