Too much pitching, not enough hitting. All about defense. Boring. That's what's wrong with the game in general.


You are living in 2001.

SEC softball scores from Sunday:

LSU 5, Arkansas 4
Alabama 14, Missouri 6
Kentucky 4, South Carolina 3
Tennessee 6, Georgia 1
Mississippi State 6, Florida 5
Texas A&M 10, Colorado State 2
Ole Miss 11, Auburn 9

Sorry to blow your argument out of the water. It has been this way for a few years now. Offenses are catching up to pitching. Very few 1-0 games anymore.

You didn't blow my argument out of the water. You listed one days worth of games. I would like to see an average over several years and I bet you pitchers and defense have a clear advantage. I play softball regularly and it is hard as hell to hit a fast pitch going 60+ mph.

I have seen just as many 1-0 games lately. Bottom line - soccer, hockey and softball are boring games because its too hard to score. This isn't debatable and is why they aren't popular sports. If they were popular, they would beat out the big 3 in attendance and revenue.
