To his credit the umpire was squeezing him. He had 7 walks in the first three innings. After Edwards had the catcher Fair raise the target a little things settled down. Crockett is a very good hitting team and Crockett coach Hagy even said their approach was going to be to get him into a high pitch count by taking a lot of pitches. 18 strikeouts and no hits in 7 innings tells me there weren't a whole lot of swings by Crockett during the game.
Pitch better? C'mon man, this isn't the majors. If the coach made a bad decision, fair enough let him know, but lets not start bashing a kid who actually had a pretty good game. His first pitch was 93, and he 96 several times, I even heard he hit 97 once last night. He is a special talent.
