I try to get them all as equal time as I can in friendlies.
I try to play the better teams with more of my tournament lineup, but everyone plays.
usually one game i will try to get the girls who have batted lower in the other games up near the top. not quite reversing the lineup, but close, and my leadoff usually bats last in that game, etc...if we play a team again at a later date, i try to have a different pitcher throw to see how it works.
I have 3 pitchers, and they each get a full game.
regardless, in friendlies, I try to balance wanting to win with keeping things in perspective.
going 3-0 in a friendly is nice, but i would rather lose 3-1 and play in a tight competitive game than win 15-0, when you can't steal, bunt, etc after the 2nd inning...
I also try not to get too high if we beat a good team or too low if we lose to a good team.
Again, trying to keep things balanced and in perspective.
And, I won't make any excuses regarding a win or loss, it is what it is, and it's not the end of the world.
I still probably 2nd guess myself more than i should, but not as bad as i used to...
JMHO
