Rob Crews talks about:

• Why most slappers aren't actually fast—they just play against slow defenders
• The coaches who sacrifice a kid's development to win local games
• Regional differences in softball and why Northeast kids get exposed when they travel
• Why your 14U playing 18U isn't a flex—it's sad
• The honest conversation he had with an 11-year-old her first time in the cage
• Why families who can't handle the truth at 11 won't handle it at 16 either
• Players who come back years later just to take one more lesson
• How the game becomes a support system that's bigger than softball
