You missed the proper play.
Get the out at second and the second baseman rifles it behind the runner at third who took a lazy turn at third and you double that lead runner up.
I would buy it at auction if could grab it for cheap. My guess is it won't just be that bat. It will be a lot of a bunch of old bats.
There is one listed on ebay for $1,200.00. Listing it and the actual value are two very different things.
Here is the description from the seller...
If I were you I would not go back to that team. But in all honesty, it sounds like they made the decision.
From the team standpoint, You can be on the team but you will only play when a bunch of people are missing sounds a lot like "He's just not that into you."
Not for softball but, one of my friends in high school missed wrestling weigh ins because he was waiting for "C'mon Eileen" video to play again on MTV.
I play with someone who does this quite often. The problem is that it looks like he is leaving early. I have seen him called out a few times because it appeared that he left early when he didn't. The ump can see him move but not see his feet and the bag.
I'm with Blackcherry about the Ultra II. That bat was sick. My other favorite would be the Louisville Slugger Voltage. That one was pretty close to the Ultra II.
