So let’s assume the Hammerheads were actually trying to put the ball over the plate.
I coached enough youth baseball to have witnessed games like that in person.
When the kids were like 9.

This is about these intrepid souls who had to describe every pitch of this abomination.
This is what a ferocious iron will sounds like.
Their plaintive wail of “You gotta put it over the plate” spoke for all mankind.
And if you are scoring the game at home, your loneliness saddens me."
I promise you we’ll be hearing them in the Majors someday.
Unlike anyone on the Hammerheads pitching staff.
