I don’t like this post - I suspect that Pete will work with Emma

To put her in a position that this is rarely if ever called again. It can be taught . Also remember we don’t play FSU again until perhaps the playoffs . It’s crystal clear if you saw Diehards incredible pics from Emma’s pics yesterday, that the umpire had an agenda - balls were not illegal pitches but strikes were … I think we all know what went down here . I also don’t appreciate posts which say that she may not be effective for us any more .

I think that Emma will be more than just fine - trust in Coach Pete!

So serious question...Pete says they're not going to change anything, and

I agree with you here ...

It was an FSU thing. Listen to podcast linked below

Yes it did. Pretty sure he has no bias or dog in the fight. **
Julez90VT • 04/12/22 04:29 PM ET
I trust Pete’s judgement, knowledge and experience **

Serious Question?

There is no reason to not start Emma as usual. She is a weapon that we

She cannot beat anyone if they call her pitches illegal ...
nkhooch • 04/12/22 03:55 AM ET
She has thrown many legal pitches already and she will continue to do that**
IB4TECH • 04/12/22 09:26 AM ET
This just isn’t true.

I guess you forgot about UCLA last year

Ivy had one bad inning she’s very capable
hokiepro • 04/12/22 06:29 AM ET
OK, I will rephrase. Against FSU coach Pete was not confident enough ...
nkhooch • 04/12/22 05:05 PM ET
Wow
SBMom34 • 04/12/22 06:23 AM ET
I am not saying Ivy doesn't have value to the team ...
nkhooch • 04/12/22 05:08 PM ET
I hope she gets more innings. She’s a warrior and vital to the team.
IB4TECH • 04/12/22 09:38 AM ET
I agree, more innings would help, but she is not getting them ..

JoesterVT • 04/11/22 08:42 PM ET
Could be a workable solution......
2hhoop3 • 04/11/22 08:08 PM ET
Agree with this. Not good for the game to have this happen inconsistently
nkhooch • 04/12/22 04:03 AM ET
A rule change or interpretation change mid season? Any precedent for that?**
JoesterVT • 04/11/22 08:16 PM ET
Doesn't happen**
AirborneHokie96 • 04/12/22 07:28 AM ET
But it could be argued the ump made his own interpretation change
hokiepro • 04/12/22 06:31 AM ET
I agree with VTsportscaster......
2hhoop3 • 04/11/22 08:33 PM ET
Short answer No
