Re: Women's College World Series


Posted by: mb () on Tue Jun 3 20:14:50 2003


Anybody watch the Women's College World Series?

> 19 Homeruns, a new tournament record - the old record was 7.

> Veronica Nelson, Cal 1b, hit a couple despite being walked almost every other time. Is she rotational? How can you be that big/heavy and rotate your lower body quickly?
>
> Mims/UCLA hit some bombs too. It looked like she was more throw the hands. Anybody disagree?
**************************************************************
I watched a few games and nearly every hitter was a slap and run linear style. The broadcasters mentioned the field they played on this year was shorter than usual. Many of the players were big and strong. They could be lifting weights. I only noticed one truly rotational hitter and that was the #3 hitter for Cal. She could hit. I never really saw Nelson hit they walked her every time. Most of the games were so tight they couldn't take the chance of pitching to her. She was built like Cecil Fielder. It was exciting to watch these close games and the girls showed a lot of poise and talent.
