Thank you Bob!! We need more of you in this world!!!
For those who say that softball is a satisfactory equivalant choice for a girl to play
instead of baseball, I sincerely beg to differ.
Softball and baseball are two entirely different sports.
My neice plays softball for UC Davis. Its a great sport,...but if a person wants to play golf, do you suggest to them they go play water polo?
Rob,

The simple fact is, in competitive (larger) high school athletics there is simply no way that a girl can compete.
That's a broad brush you are painting with, mistah!!
As the Lion in Wizard of Oz so famously said, " Put em' up, put em' uuuup!!! "
Our HS girls (6A-largest League in Kansas ) s****r team can beat the snot ( for lack of a better word ) out of our HS boys 6A s****r team any day, any time,...blind folded, with chocolate sprinkles and a banana on top!!
The boys know it.
Our girls rock....I must say, they really do!
My
8th grade daughter just out ran the
9th grade highschool boys at their track meet and her girls relay 4x1 & 4x2 team
beat the boys relay teams.
How bout' them apples?
My daughter wants to play competitive baseball. Not necessarily on the boys team, but on a girl's baseball team. There are none.
That creates a problem.
I wish she had the option available to her and to so many other girls that want to play.
Can you blame them?
