I have been watching NE D3 ball, and let me say I am disappointed, I was expecting better.  players can hit, but they sure can't field for jack.

It's not the conditions.  Look at the pitching stats of a D3 conference and compare runs to earned runs. In decent good-weather D3 conferences like the SCIAC and the SAA, 21-24% of the runs are unearned (SCAC was lower at 17%).

I was curious about other levels, so I looked at two P5s, a mid-major, and a D2 conference - all their numbers were similar to each other, 16-18% of the runs are unearned.  Actually I was somewhat surprised it was so high.

Mind you, all these numbers are just for the league-leading pitchers whose stats are posted.
