On post #8 you were questioning why we didn't have the home advantage today, now your saying there is no advantage because we are winning.

Mike used to do that a ton given the choice.

What does that rectangle mean for the college game? What's its purpose?

The pitcher's lane is a chalked lane within the softball pitching circle. Pitchers are required to stay within this lane when delivering a pitch to the plate.

Thanks. Guess you pulled my question from the baseball thread? I had just realized I posed it in the wrong thread.

So why is that box not in the high school or 14U level?

Or is it and I just never noticed?
