    I mean really what is there?

    Bunt
    Hit and Run
    Take

    I'm sure I may have missed one or two but damn, does it take a QB chart to figure that shit out? Play baseball

    They carry their defensive cards in their back pockets actually. They had some Twitter shit on the main one to go along with their other stuff.

    The masks are kinda ridiculous. Read the card it says get out the way if softball approaches. Exit velo is what, 80.

    Catch the ball, there is the defensive assignment

    In my day the coach would yell my name from the dugout and say back, left, more

    Don't need a stupid chart with 100 different ways to catch the ball

    Note than that. Top bat speeds in D1 are in that range.

    Not trying to be contrary- your opinion is your opinion- but out of character for you to make naive statements. Read up sped/distance vs reaction time. I think you’ll be surprised.

    When you come back (no pun) to say how far the plate is, remember the pitchers release 6-8 feet closer than the distance. I begged my daughter to wear one but never made her, and she refused. Had a close call once in Harlingen Texas. Many kids end up with broken bones in their faces.

    Softball players still don’t wear sliding mittens though, thankfully.

    too busy trying to recover our van with govt plates stolen from the recruiting center. Easy to get your vehicle stolen in McAllen.

    did you ever get some of those 1015 onions? Sweeter than a vidalia
