184 pitches.
That's the most pitches ever thrown in a Women's College World Series game.
What's even more impressive?
Taylor Tinsley threw 104 pitches on Thursday, 61 on Friday, and then came back to throw 184 on Sunday.
When we see a workload like that, one of the most interesting questions isn't just about strength or conditioning. It's about energy.
The more efficiently an athlete moves, the less energy each repetition may require. Over hundreds and thousands of repetitions, those small differences can add up.
The ability to throw 184 pitches in a game and 349 pitches over a four day stretch is influenced by more than strength alone.
It's also about managing energy.
What a game and what a season for Taylor Tinsley and
