One of the more frustrating experiences is to sit for two hours watching a youth softball game ending with the score 16-15 when neither side gets a hit the entire game. Walk, steal, walk, steal, walk, walk. It is worse when your kid's team is on the losing end. Worse still is when your kid is in the circle. You sit there unable to get a grip on yourself hoping, praying that this pitch is going to be a strike. Please, god, let my kid throw a strike. To me the only thing worse is watching the parent of a pitcher who is suffering control problems yelling every couple of pitches, "just get it over." Does the parent suppose the kid isn't trying to "get it over?" Does anyone suppose any pitcher is content to stand out there throwing balls?
