It would be interesting to know what pitches were called vs. thrown

Meaning if pitchers were called that ran a high risk of being out of the strike zone, then some of it is going to be on the pitch call. Versus a pitch that was called and the pitcher just missed it. There were times you would think the pitch call would be to "attack the strike zone' but then the pitch tailed away way out of the zone. The other issue were some wild pitches or passed balls

It is not the Pittsburgh curse. Those 2 losses were the FIRST losses to Pit

This isn't just a softball thing. VT Sports across the board have struggled
