Catcher on Texas high school softball team hit players

The Texas College Interscholastic League is investigating a highschool softball workforce after its catcher was seen on video hitting opposing gamers of their heads with wild throws. There’s debate about whether or not the catcher deliberately hit the batters or not.

Cisco Excessive Faculty squared off in opposition to McCamey Excessive Faculty within the Space Championship softball collection over the weekend. The catcher for McCamey Excessive Faculty was accused of deliberately throwing the ball on the heads of two batters from Cisco Excessive Faculty.

Following a pitch, the McCamey catcher turned and appeared to throw the ball towards third base. Nevertheless, the catcher hurled the ball and smashed the ball into the heads of the batters. One other Cisco batter was walloped within the head when the catcher threw the ball towards the primary bottom line.

There have been two different incidents of throwing at batters within the first-round playoff sport between McCamy and Coleman Excessive Faculty. The catcher hit batter Lauren McKeehan twice within the head in two completely different at-bats.

She stepped out of the batter’s field, as she usually does, to have a look at Coach Corey Aven at third base and the McCamey catcher threw the ball, (supposedly in the direction of her third baseman) hitting McKeehan at the back of the top. Lauren was known as out for interference.”

The outlet added, “Sadly, out of behavior McKeehan stepped out of the batter’s field to have a look at Coach Aven once more after the primary strike, receiving the ball to her head once more from the McCamey catcher, since Gilbreath was on third.”

Nobody was ejected after each incidents.

Interference might be known as on batters for impeding the catcher’s capacity to throw the ball to an infielder. If the workforce known as out for interference, the workforce is penalized with an out.
