Had a lot of fun this past weekend watching a great series between Fullerton State and Stanford. Enjoyed very much talking with parents of pitchers on both sides. We have a bond. We all know what each other goes through. We pace, we have superstitions (gotta find that lucky spot!), we can't look sometimes, we root like heck for the hitters to build a BIG lead for our son, we even actually think that WE can help control what happens.
Simply put, we worry...live-and-die with each pitch. Its a fraternity. I even feel bad for the pitcher on the other team if the bottom falls out.
Anyone else got some superstitions when your boy pitches?...gotta sit in the same spot?...lucky shirt?...lucky meal?
