Guest tchawks99 Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 Final was 22 -5 Orange..Good game..Vidor nothing to hang your head about.yall played 7 games in a row. I knew it would be a uphill battle after yall played the double header yesterday. Orange looked good and didnt make alot of errors last night.Also they hit the ball well. The Orange's coach got there early yesterday and made sure the two pitchers were ineligible..I think he(they) were more happy about that then winning the game.. Good luck to them boys in Regionals. TC will be back next year!!!! GOOD LUCK ORANGE! Hey guys, part of the game is coaching. You have to know the rules and you have to play by the rules. I hope your comment wasn't to get on the Orange coaches because they did their job. If the kid wasn't eligible to pitch according to the rules then too bad. It's Oranges job to point it out. Just like the night before when they never pointed out the courtesy runner. That was a coaching mistake. Coaching mistakes can cause you to lose games. The Orange coaches obviously knew the pitching rules and pitched their kids accordingly. We had every pitcher we have on the team available to pitch last night. Now that's good coaching I don't care where you're from. Congratulations players and coaches and parents. Go Orange! I wasn't getting on the coaches at all.. If I was coaching I would have did the same thing..I just thought it was funny when they were all happy about another kid from another team not being able to pitch..Thats all.. I did some of the work at the field and I was there early and overheard it..Vidor having to play us and then turn around and play Orange the same night I believe hurt them pitching wise ..because it was on The SAME DAY by "rules".now if Vidor would have played Orange Thursday with a game 2 following then in my opinion it would have been a better game last night. I hope you arent trying to imply that Vidor coaches were to blame because there pitching wasnt available..?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you arent trying to imply that Vidor coaches were to blame because there pitching wasnt available..?? It may or may not have been a better game. We will never know. What I am saying is that it's a coaches job to manage his pitching, period. I have no idea what Vidor has or doesn't have so I couldn't speak on whether they did a good job of that or not. So what I spoke on is exactly what ZI said. Orange had every single pitcher available and that's good coaching. There wasn't and never will be any hidden meanings in my post. I will say what I mean and I TRY not to speak about other teams because unless you are involved you have no idea what their strengths and weaknesses are.

piratefan Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 TChawk , TD is right we will never know what would, have could, or shouldn't have.Bottom line we should have WON Saturday but we didnt . climbing out of the loser bracket has it's disadvantages.Staying in the winners bracket has its rewards.Would I as a coach done anything different..NO!! We had to get there to the Game 2 and we did what we had to do ,bottom line.We ran out of pitchers to compete with a team like Orange. that being said I am still proud of my boys, proud to have coached them and wish ALL the Best to Orange .I know they will represent the GT well..Good luck Orange.

Vidor already won Shetland and is in good shape to win Pinto can't we have something? That would have been a clean sweep. Assuming Vidor gets by Groves at least once tonight in Pinto.
