NDbaseball wrote:Yes, you do tell your kids to go up striking out. There's NO WAY belcourt would come back from a 20 run deficit and we ALL know that. There's a 15 run after 3 rule and I say when your're up by 20 (enough to make sure it ends in 3 innings) you tell your players to strike out, OR to bunt the ball back to the pitcher as stated earlier. It doesn't look good in the stats? Well someone has to get out at some point in the game right? Why not get it over with when you're up by 20? 43-0...show some character Minot.. Running up the score to bring your stats up is absolute BUSH LEAGUE..I don't care what anyone says. Why not get picked off on the bases on purpose then if your so worried about your 'stats'?
