darin3 Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 I typically try watching the finals, sometimes even the semi-finals or quarterfinals (or whatever they call the games before the actual championship game). Caught some highlights from tonight's regional (or whatever) featuring a team from Lubbuck, TX. Man, they got this kid that has wicked nasty stuff. Lefty, very tall. Not sure how their offense is, but this kid looks like a dominant force and could propel his team to the WS! Anyone got more info on this team........?

The pitcher you are referring too is the best I have seen this year. He was consistenly throwing in the upper 70's with a wicked curve ball. He will be tough to beat. But, this year they have a 85 pitch limit, then three days rest. This year whoever is the deepest on the mound will have the best chance to make it to the semis.

This year whoever is the deepest on the mound will have the best chance to make it to the semis. 85 pitches = 3 days rest 60 pitches = 2 days rest 1- 40 pitches I think you can pitch the next day.

Missoula Griz Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 85 pitches = 3 days rest 60 pitches = 2 days rest 1- 40 pitches I think you can pitch the next day. Its 19 or less and then you can pitch the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muck Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 ...can't exceed 85 pitches in any three day stretch (iirc)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missoula Griz Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 ...can't exceed 85 pitches in any three day stretch (iirc)... Actually you can. If you have hit the 85 pitch limit and your still facing the batter at the plate, you can finish pitching to him or her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. There's that. Generally speaking, it's no more than 85 pitches in any three day stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbimm Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 The Lubbock team is 2 deep with wicked lefties. Team to beat in my opinion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Like Soup Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Damn Lubbock team beat my hometown team of Chandler. But really, they must be bringing in illegals or something...y'all ever been to Lubbock? There ain't jack out there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But really, they must be bringing in illegals or something...y'all ever been to Lubbock? There ain't jack out there! Chandler is tough. 1-3 hitters are unreal. I was suprised that the pitcher today held them in check. What I learned today is Texas is deep in pitching. The kid they brought in to clean up with one out in the sixth was sick. They have 3 crazy lefties. They should win the U.S bracket. Lets just hope Garrett Williams is on the mound when they play for the world series if they by chance do make the title game. He only struck out 17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
