I like seeing plays where you can tell the player(s) were really thinking ahead of time and knew exactly what to do. In my experience (maybe it's just the team we were involved with last year ) lots of girls have the physical abilities to play softball, but the mental aspect just isn't quite there sometimes (this is 12U/14U I'm thinking of).
So, when a girl, especially my DD, makes a play that is a good, smart play, whether it's on offense or defense, I really appreciate it
