The real garbage in this situation is that in the county our 9-10 girls actually pitched to each other all season, then when we got to all stars and everybody else had used a machine all year..... Can you say unfair?....... It's okay county girls....If they had really been playing, and learned to pitch, it would have been a different story. Go PHOENIX!!!!!

Please....let's get Calhoun youth baseball switched over to Dizzy Dean. Maybe then all of our youth will once again be playing IN Calhoun, instead of Rome or Gordon County. This pitching machine junk has got to go!!
