Softball needs to change the rule about a pitcher re-entering. I can see allowing a starter to come back, but Tech has flip flopped between 2 pitchers at least 5-times. 

Didn't see that game, but will agree with you that softball needs to fix that pitcher re-entry rule because what Tech had to be doing isn’t “strategy,” it’s a cover‑up. When you’re swapping the same two pitchers five times(like you said), you’re not managing a game. All you’re doing is hiding the fact that neither one can actually get through a lineup.

This isn’t clever coaching. It’s a loophole being milked by a staff that clearly doesn’t trust its own arms. The constant re‑entering doesn’t disrupt hitters - it just exposes how thin their pitching really is.

If your best competitive edge is gaming the rulebook, that tells the whole story.

Tech always using technicalities, credit their staff for knowing the rulebook and how took exploit it, but it's still lame.  Just like I think they lead the country in asking for and getting obstruction calls when they are clearly beaten and out.

I’m tired of people saying White never wins game 1. This team is very different than previous years and lacks both pitching and hitting. 

This team is in serious trouble. I don’t see them in OKC. 

Checking in. Is this a John Cena where they’re doing the “you can’t see me”, or you made a joke?

It’s smart managing within the rules.

It’s clever coaching and within the rules.
