Huffman vs Silsbee


LTFALCON

Recommended Posts

Based solely on our place in district and the fact that we havent had the results that we like, i would think we would want one game where anything can happen.  However, i havent kept close tabs on either team this year.  Huffman could have that one unbeatable pitcher that we would get in that case,  so i will leave it up to the coaches to devide whats best.

also small stands and no parking.

The field is awesome and did not see any kids sliding around after it rained. Neither pitcher had any issues on the mound. The parking sucks and the stands are small but other than that, the field is freaking awesome! I like the fact the the back stop is not 200 yards deep.

There is very little foul territory. Unable to pitch in spikes, if any rain comes it mound gets very slick. Beautiful park... just not set up very well

and the dugouts are so close to the plate that there is no on deck circle for the hitters.  The dugouts really need some type of protective netting.  Foul balls get into the dugouts in less than a second.

Are there room for lawn chairs along the fence line behind home plate and up the lines?

 

Like I said not set up well.. And it didn’t really rain .. but looks like both kids came prepared and had molded cleats. When we last played there we had to use regular shoes. The back stop is way to close.. it’s like playing at Ford park

    • I get it!!  I was once in your shoes. I was that person in the stands, loudly complaining about “bad officiating.” Now, with the rise of social media, it’s easier than ever to voice these criticisms online.  I thought I could see every call better than the officials on the floor. Then someone said to me, “If you can do better, get in the game.”   That challenge changed my life. Over 20 years ago, I became a basketball official, and what I’ve learned since then is eye-opening.   Officiating is not just about making calls. It’s about managing the game, the players, the coaches, and yes, the fans. We face a new generation of student-athletes who have been raised in a culture where everyone gets a trophy and losing is almost taboo. We deal with fans who question our integrity and sometimes become outright hostile.   I acknowledge that officials aren’t perfect; we have off days just like anyone else. However, the increasing hostility from fans is driving many to leave officiating. According to the National Federation of High School Associations, approximately 50,000 high school officials have left the profession since the 2018-19 season, with fan behavior being a significant factor.    Here’s the reality: without officials, there is no game.   So, instead of tearing down the people who make your games possible, here’s a suggestion:   • Thank the officials for being part of the game. • Thank them for the countless hours they spend studying rules, mastering mechanics, and working to improve. • Thank them for their patience with privilege-minded athletes and overly aggressive fans.   Next time you see an official, instead of criticizing, take a moment to say, “Thank you.” They’re out there to make the game happen, and trust me, it’s not as easy as it looks from the stands.   If you think you can do better, take the challenge like I did. Get in the game. You might just discover how much it takes to blow that whistle.
