If its a meatball down the middle of the plate, 3-1 or not, you should swing.

Longer than you'll be a player on his team if you don't start listening...

Do you find it funny making up spellings of words? Even your username is absurd.

really? 3-1 is a classic hitter's pitch so be selective and if you get what you're looking for...stay back, don't overswing and drive that bitch in the gap.

JMHO.

get better.

No sympathy wanted or needed. The coach did tell everyone that this is what you are going to do and the batter did not follow his direction. I back the coach here because it is his team.

Agree with lsutygerfan but I believe that the coach is imposing his will to have his team do what he says to instill more discipline in the players.

You are upset because your anus is stretched out of shape from the old "in out, in out".

Yep, in a coach vs player ego clash, my money is on the coach every time...unless we're discussing professional sports.

I usually tell my players to swing at the 3-1 if runners on base since the odds are a strike is coming but it depends on when and where and who is pitching or who we are playing and what inning or the weather or how many ball girls are wearing short skirts that day

did coach tell him to take? If so and he swings, he needs to sit.

Coach may have been 100% right, based on pitchers control, hitters strengths, hell he may have been wanting to buy a few throws to get to a weak pen,

We got ALOT of shite going on here! Candlesticks make a nice gift.
