Yikes, sounds like a rough game. Thanks for the info.danicalifornia wrote: Thu Apr 08, 2021 10:53 am Clay had multiple players go 6-6 and only had 6 stolen bases in the game. They only have 12 players on their roster, so it isn’t like they can mass sub.
Western had 7 errors and threw 5 wild pitches.
I know Clay is a league foe but If your a decent program why would you waste a non conference game on Westerntransplant wrote: Thu Apr 08, 2021 11:01 amYikes, sounds like a rough game.

This is already the fifth game this season where the winning team had 30 or more runs while the losing team had five or less.danicalifornia wrote: Thu Apr 08, 2021 10:53 am Clay had multiple players go 6-6 and only had 6 stolen bases in the game.

Yep. The year away was a killer for a lot of teams, while some others return a lot of players either with expierence in HS baseball or still played at a fairly high level in the offseason.formerfcfan wrote: Thu Apr 08, 2021 1:56 pmThis is already the fifth game this season where the winning team had 30 or more runs while the losing team had five or less.danicalifornia wrote: Thu Apr 08, 2021 10:53 am Clay had multiple players go 6-6 and only had 6 stolen bases in the game.

So far I've seen: 37-3 (24 run first inning), 30-0, 31-1, 30-0, 32-5. I strongly suspect this number of >30 v <5 will swell up after a couple weeks given that three of the games I just cited were actually league games to be played again under a Double Round Robin.
What I think folks commonly forget is these final scores are largely a product of ridiculous innings. Massive 15-20+ run volleys over three outs in a frame? Yup.
Unfortunately, I worry that for the teams on the bad end of the beating it will just hasten the demise of their programs. It's greatly ironic, but equally sad, that the programs where most of the kids presumably do care are the ones to worry about the most here.danicalifornia wrote: Thu Apr 08, 2021 4:03 pm Yep.

Hopefully this will be the worst year for this and it won’t become commonplace moving forward.
I’m not surprised that Clay beat someone 31 to 1. This coach has a history of putting up big numbers on people during his time at Clay. If you’d like a comparison to see how other coaches handle games like this in SOC1 look at some of the scores over the recent years involving Symmes Valley. They had some really good teams in recent history and Coach Renfroe I’m sure has never put up 31 runs on anybody. He just would not allow that to happen.transplant wrote: Thu Apr 08, 2021 10:29 am maybe thats a typo on their part? seems odd. But clay did score 16 against webster earlier, so its possible i guess.
