Coastal 4 TCU 0 top of 7. This is a very good team.
Got a guy in all black UL gear on the right hand side of the grandstand. You can see him clearly when they show a close up on the right handed hitters. I know...not a big deal...but I thought it was cool.
Can you see Robe pitching a drafted kid 120 plus pitches.
Hell of a play by CC ss
4-1 Coastal
Final
137 pitches. I get it if the kid had no pro career in the balance. Robes become a better and better shepherd of the young men he's been given by the Lord.
This whole pitch count thing has gotten completely out of hand. Guys used to throw 120-130 all the time...with WAY less arm injuries.
With proper rest before and after an outing, I would be seriously disappointed if we didn't throw a guy like that with a national title on the line.
Go ahead and read me the riot act, but there are MANY instances of teams winning CWS series titles using their ace as much as he can possibly go. And many of those guys went on to have very successful professional careers.
You can't watch or listen to a game these days without being inundated with a guys pitch count. And anyone would have an extremely hard time arguing that pitchers arm injuries aren't at an all time high.
Again, proper rest before and after the outing are key. I am completely disgusted by the coaches that run guys out there without proper rest, but the difference between 105-110 pitches and 125-130 is close to nil.
