ive seen teams win with coaches who are "idiots".  ive said before baseball is the one sport i think that the coach is the least needed and the players decide the outcome more then coaching.  sure its important to have a coach but in the clutch the talent comes through over good coaching

In Region 2's last loser bracket game, top seed Thompson is behind 4-3. 3 innings from possible elimination

Harvey vs. Lakota

Harvey ended up winning all 3 of their games today. beat DP 4-2....zein started and lorenz came in for the close. then they beat lakota 2-0 i think in 8 innings with lorenz on the mound. then they beat lakota again 13-7 for the championship with krahler throwing

[ricky bobby]

lorenz looked pretty good today and questions about his stamina should settle down after throwing 11 innings today

ive seen teams win with coaches who are "idiots".  ive said before baseball is the one sport i think that the coach is the least needed and the players decide the outcome more then coaching.  sure its important to have a coach but in the clutch the talent comes through over good coaching

Name  a few of the coaches who are "idiots" I read about you spouting off alot.  Back your words up by naming a few.  I have played for and know many coaches who give their time and effort for their kids and personally am offended by comments without documentation.  Grow a set and reply.

k for one i put idiots in quotes being someone else called their coach an idiot.  i was simply saying talent is more important then coachin in baseball more hten it is in other sports.  lets flip flop coaches from Steele and Medina for this year year.  Steele would still be going to state and Medina wouldnt.  Why? Steele has baseball players and Medina doesn't.....maybe when there 7th graders are seniors and have 7 years of experiance they might make it.

When that person complained his caoch was an "idiot" (in quotes once again), i was simply saying it was the players fault not the coaches.  is it the caoches fault he hits a ground ball to 2nd base to end the game or the players?  is it the coaches fault the right fielder misjudges a fly ball and 2 runs score?  and as for coaches who give in time and effort, im sure that happens alot, but i also know coaches who pitch batting practice to maybe 2 players then either go sit ont he bench the rest of practice or stand in the outfield while the players throw BP to each other

And as for a team being "outcoached" in a big game, i dont 100% believe in that. Sure a coach can call a bunt, but can he put the ball in play or does the player at bat have to do that for himself.  read the last sentence in my post again....sure its important to have a coach but in the clutch the talent comes through over good coaching[color=black][size=2]......players do more then coaching do in the game of baseball.  a coach puts 9 guys on the field, tells them where to play, adn tells them who bats after who.[/size][/color]

in basketball with a tie game, the coach can call a timeout with 10 seconds left to draw up a double back pick for an easy layup.  in the 7th inning can can a coach call time and tell the batter to hit the ball to the right center field gap so the guy on first can score??  sure the basketball play wont work every time but it will have a much much higher success rate then the baseball timeout.  more factors go into every pitch in baseball then every pass in basketball, or every snap in football.
