Parents call out unfairness as trans pitcher throws shutout in Minnesota softball state quarterfinals

It's not happening. 

 

The Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL) girls’ softball state tournament is officially under way — and so is the controversy surrounding Champlin Park’s starting pitcher.

Marissa Rothenberger, a trans-identifying male athlete, threw a complete-game shutout Wednesday morning as No. 2-seeded Champlin Park defeated No. 7 Eagan, 5-0, in the Class AAAA quarterfinals. Rothenberger allowed seven hits and struck out four in the win. 

Rothenberger, whose participation in girls’ sports highlights a growing trend across the state and country, threw 14 shutout innings in back-to-back games in the sectional finals to help Champlin Park reach the state tournament.

On Wednesday, not everyone in the stands was clapping.

Two Eagan parents, both of whom requested anonymity for the sake of their daughters, expressed frustration and disappointment after the game. One mother, wearing a "Save Girls’ Sports" T-shirt, said the outcome felt inevitable.

"I was pretty disappointed and frustrated," she told OutKick. "I think we've seen this happen over and over again to our girls. You look online, and you see women transitioning to men, and they're not dominating any of the men's sports. You don’t see that. But on the women's side, you see it over and over again across the country. It's super frustrating. I knew it was eventually going to happen to my daughter. I was sad to see it happen to her."

The important thing is that Marissa was happy, not that their happiness destroyed fair competition for the other team.  

Also, it only happens 0.00000001% of the time so we shouldn't care.  Except during championship weeks, where it seems to happen quite often.  :thumbsup:

What is this weird obsession they have with trans people that they have to start a thread with any news item that mentions them?

People who want the policy to change bring attention to the topic.

People who want the policy to remain in place want us to stop complaining about it.

This is the first notable one I can recall in softball.

The trannies do seem to like track & field though.

And Swimming.  And giving girls lifelong injuries in volleyball.  Want a few more?  Oh wait, it's not happening.......

It struck me as odd that a guy could be so successful pitching underhand, since boys don't grow up pitching that way.

But we are early, I'm confident that more will accomplish this sad success as we accept it as a society.  :( 

Sports like track and field, swimming... if there is no difference in the techniques, then the men will eventually prevail.

Never said it’s not happening.  But I’d say track & field seems to be the main sport where it’s not “rare.”    The lifelong injury you’re referring to happened 3 years ago

The one we know about.  And what's your point?  How long after an incident does a lifelong injury not count?

One time 3 years ago still seems pretty rare to me.

You think if there were more incidents of that that Riley Gaines, peefoam, and Tranny Overkill wouldn’t have heard about it???

Children whose parents traumatized them in the shower still suffer. Like Joe Bidens daughter.

I find this stance curious every time I read it.  We all have our causes/obsessions.  You and the other libs here keep crying "due process" for people here illegally who are members of violent gangs.  Some of us care about Americans and fairness for them, such as for women in sports who fought for decades and finally achieved some level of equal opportunity with mens sports only to have it snatched away by other men taking advantage of a tolerant society.  If I have to choose which "obsession" I'm associated with, it will be with the one favoring American women and not the one favoring violent illegal aliens.

Lol, there have gotta be like 30x more tranny threads than threads about “due process for people here illegally who (allegedly) are in violent gangs”

Good. Time to get rid of trannies. You keep trying to stop it. Sucks to be you. Go whine about the number of Trump whining threads. Oh wait. Not enough of those!! Amirite??

Hypothetically, let's say your daughter was the star player on the team who lost the state championship, to the team with a trans (male) pitcher.

Can you honestly say you wouldn't be at least a little bit upset ?

Liberals wonder why I wish this crap on them and their families rather than on those of us that oppose it.

Huh?  Squiz would have already groomed and transitioned his daughter.

I told you all it's WOMEN on the forefront of this tranny movement.  They're literally erasing themselves.  It's almost comical how zealous they are on this issue.

She’s not even saying to allow biological males in women’s sports, in fact she specifically suggests a trans-only division (which seems impossible unless there’s way more trannies).  

She’s just saying you don’t need to be a bigoted POS about it like Gaines:

How exactly is she a bigot? Just because she's passionate in her belief? 

You seem to throw that word a lot when someone is passionate in their belief or disagrees with you 

Stop defending Men in wigs, there's no reason to favor them over real Women. It's sickening

Well, here she is comparing a tranny playing sports to sexual abuse.

Did you just once ever stop and think that maybe Women just don't want Men in Girl's Sports??? It's strange that you do, why??? 

Does it turn you on to watch a Man beat the life out of a Woman in a boxing ring? What exactly are you going for???

Thank you for admitting that Gaines is a bigot

It is interesting how allowing just one boy to compete with girls can harm so many girls.

Liberals feel that if a tranny harms girls, it's the girls' fault for not accepting it. They also feel that if an illegal kills or rapes your kid, it's your fault for not accepting it. "There are no illegal humans!!"

But TRUMP!! :cry: EVERYTHING IS HIS FAULT!!!! 

Those are the rules on the left. :dunno:
