Didn't see it posted anywhere but Seattle-area softball team wins 64-0 last week.

The title of this thread ought to garner Della a dozen Newbie of the Year votes alone.
 
Me too. Thought it was a D_B.

What happened to the 60-run rule anyway?

Good Lord, what's this official scorebook looks like?

I don't know, but I'm thankful I've never had to keep a score for a game like that.
 
This isn't really that surprising in this high school league. My high school is in this conference and I remember when the Seattle schools merged with us. They tended to thrash us in basketball and we would hammer them in football and in the fringe sports that weren't tremendously popular in downtown Seattle.
Though 64-0 is a little excessive. I'd really like to see the score by innings.
 
56 errors? Next time they should bring gloves.
 
Wow, 64 runs? I'm going to have to check out my new scorebook.

Would you just fill up all your pages? What questions would you ask?


"Uh, coach what was the difference in the game?"
 
How about interviewing the losing coach?
"Uh, coach, what do you think your team could have done better?"
 
There is no way...NO way that coach was not running it up. There are several ways to avoid that sort of thing. My daughters high school team lost yesterday to the first place team 13-0. It could've been much worse, but the winning coached slowed everything down for his team when it became obvious they would win very easily.

The Seattle coach is an ass.
