baseballguy99 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Posted April 2, 2011 Is it true that Wilson, from West Brook, threw 153 pitches a couple weeks ago?
rounder17 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Posted April 2, 2011 Most likely. Last year, Warner threw 130 on a Tuesday, and then started again on a Friday.

That's probably why Warner isn't at West Brook.Most of the coaches over their are idiots (and jerks) and BISD could care less about anything but football and basketball. (You would think their football programs would be much better since they get all the money?)

I have heard some rumors that he might have re-injured himself.
Burkeville_#70 Posted April 4, 2011 Report Posted April 4, 2011 I feel sorry for the kid if the pitch count is accurate because i catch for a pitcher who threw almost 150 in one game... and has pitched in 5 of our 5 games
Puma Posted April 4, 2011 Report Posted April 4, 2011 Why is there a prohibition on players wearing jewelry and the national baseball high school rules list this under the heading of safety but of all the games I have ever watched at all levels I have never heard of a player being injured because he had on some sort of jewelery. But there is a wealth of information available by medical experts and years of research and study indicating excessive pitch counts poses a serious threat of injury and I have heard of numerous players injured due to overuse. I have never seen or heard of a medical or expert opinion indicating that pitch counts are not important.Why is it then that there is not some sort of rule on pitch counts? It just seems it would make more sense to put safety rules in place that would have a real impact. I am not suggesting players should be allowed to wear jewelry but it just seems to me (I am not an expert) that the risk of injury is far greater to a player when they throw too many pitches than if they were a necklace.
BaseballWarrior Posted April 5, 2011 Report Posted April 5, 2011 Who would be the "official" counter of pitches? I'm sure both teams would keep a pitch count on the other, but there would have to be an official that strictly counted pitches to ensure accuracy without prejudice.
Guest Ranger83 Posted April 5, 2011 Report Posted April 5, 2011 Baseball does not even have an official scorer. When baseball makes the money football is reported to be making (which is open to debate), things will change.
