you really don't want to walk the leadoff hitter, but you also don't want to give her anything good to hit. She is a problem without a good solution.

She is only guaranteed to be the leadoff one inning** -- VAHokie89 Apr 15, 2025 at 03:57 PM ET

She was the leadoff batter in that inning. ** -- RJHokie Apr 15, 2025 at 07:10 PM ET

Correct, but my point was that you don't want to start the game with a walk -- Italian Stallion Apr 15, 2025 at 04:17 PM ET
