Can't let 'frustration' dictate location. She's been doing this . .

. . long enough to realize the you can throw the same pitch, same location and get a different call. I'm not sure how much help she gets from catcher Yaeger. It appears to me when Mazz does get ahead and wants to go out of the zone the catcher is setting up a couple of balls wide. You're rarely going to induce a swing out there.

But, the walks keep her a step down from Lemley, so far.**

They hit the GS because she thought she had to groove one to get a strike

I didn’t say anything about her mental fortitude

You said everything about mental fortitude. You said she didn't get one

So “frustrated” = “it’s all over”

I've read your posts for years here, dude. For you "frustrated right off

Ok I see

I sometimes wonder if the umps struggle because of her speed and movement.
jokeenan • 03/16/26 09:04 AM ET
Yes the harder she throws the more it moves and harder to control

I don’t think Zoe calls the game. The catcher hasn’t called the game

Oh, I know that. My post was about where. .

Coach Josh needs to stop calling for those wild pitches! :-)**

That has always puzzled me. **

Not sure I've ever heard the announcers say it happened.**
