hiway58 Posted April 2, 2004 Report Share Posted April 2, 2004 In the good spirit of CoachT, I won't name any names; but I know FOR SURE that the batting average of one of the "leaders" is heavily padded. I attend every game, and even keep "the book" from time to time. Basically, any time a certain player gets on base, it's a "hit." Dropped fly ball, grounder between the legs, fielder's choice, you name it. It's one of high school baseball's dirty little secrets: many coaches like to "hype" a player or two, as a favor to parents, or just to get someone in the paper. Bottom line: in high school baseball, don't believe all the stats you read; if you want to see how good a player REALLY is, go to the game. You'll see actual hits, the attitude, the enthusiasm, etc. That's why good scouts ignore batting averages. And may I salute the coaches who insist on accuracy in scoring. I wish there were more of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HiwasseeVol Posted April 2, 2004 Report Share Posted April 2, 2004 The scouts will all tell you they don't care, don't want to see them, they just want to watch the player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

123kid Posted April 8, 2004 Report Share Posted April 8, 2004 From looking at these stats. Josh Sitz from Grundy is 2nd in average and first in RBI's. He is only a junior and having a heck of a season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
