I have had 62 minute full 5 and 2/3rd inning game. Loved it.  I am talking L O V E here.

Just a wild guess, He's a lefty?

Still looking for my three pitch inning. Come close. 4. 3 is rare. Most coaches won't let it happen.

Around here a 3 pitch inning is a steak dinner.

It has been several years ago but a in a highschool softball game I had 3 pitches resulting in 3 line drives to infielders during the top of the 3rd. and 3 pitches resulting in 3 line drives to infielders during the bottom of the 3rd.  I asked the home team pitcher if she wanted any warm ups she said no.  1-0 seven innings in 45 minutes.  People were still arriving to watch the game while we were walking to our cars.  An added bonus... I was working with the assigner.

3 pitch inning means the BU  buys the PU a steak  dinner .  

 

 

I think i had a 3 pitch inning working solo once , a lot of good that did me.  

 

My record tho, last year  as PU I had a 7 inning varsity game, 3-2 , STarted at 3 30, back at my car before 4 45, a nice and tidy 70 min.

Have had a couple, but in my last one, a high school varsity game,  Coach yelled out loud after the third out. "Does anyone know how to take a pitch"

Oh. Sounds like a lot of lefties I've seen pitch. They pitch to contact and get a lot of ground balls and pop ups, hitters can't seem to square them up.

my sons ratio of ground outs, to fly outs is right about 85%.  he has a natural sinker to the right, and uses that to his advantage. he is not the fastest pitcher at his school, but he has 4 solid pitches. FB, CU, CRV, and 2 seam FB (which is a natural slider). i def like to watch him pitch, the batters are golfing quite a bit on his crv, and his FB really likes F2's r-knee.

 

so far he has pitched 2 shutouts, one against a top 10 nationally rated 17U club team, and in his Moore League here in Long Beach.

 

he's just coming off the DL as he had a double tendonitis in his r-sholder which he's working thru (he's going to his pitching instructor 3x a week), and should start pitching i would think in the next two weeks. pretty much the dr said 6 weeks ago ... 5 weeks of no throwing. my gawd i thought, the whole season, but i think he'll be able to pitch the last 4/5 weeks of the HS season. then there's the AL after that. r-

Rehab it right. Dont rush it.

I like groundballs they are more democratic.
