Beenthere, I respect your opinion, but if you think the players are going to quit hitting then you are not thinking straight. If you think that was bad, why not have the CS coach forfeit and go home. If the game is being played, the team deserves to play the game to the max. You sound like a loser that wants to keep the game close so you might have a chance to win. Many coaches in the early part of the season plan on their pitchers getting some innings in to see how they are throwing. I see notheing wrong with the kid in at inning 4.
Your opinion is dead wrong on this one.
