As I said in my email FireFly, sorry to hear you were injured last night.

Over the last decade or so, I have seen a drastic drop in the number of lady pitchers. This has corresponded to the increase in bat performance over that time. Way too many ladies were getting hurt, and sometimes badly.

Personally, unless the lady is an "A" calibre ball player, there is no way in hell that I am going to put her in the line of fire on the pitching mound. You have less than a tenth of a second to react to the ball when it is hit. Even seasoned ball players with fast reactions get dinged quite often. I have been hit so many times it isn't funny (including one directly to the heart).

Please consider this when you choose who pitches each game.
