    HomeRun Derby

    The few that I've been in have been X number of swings and X number of pitches. For example, one was 10 swings but you were limited to 15 pitches so you aren't standing there for an hour trying to get 10 perfect pitches. Then, you're only working with the actual number hit out and not...

    What is the best glove size for a slowpitch SS?

    Yeah, that's it. I'm sure you're an A ball player right? But hey, just resort to crude insults like every other internet hero who does that. Enjoy your "stud" life you've created in your mind for yourself.

    What is the best glove size for a slowpitch SS?

    Don't worry, it was just facts - something I'm sure you're not real familiar with. It would just cloud your superiority thoughts I'm sure.

    What is the best glove size for a slowpitch SS?

    Again, not mad. No reason to be. This is a softball website with a bunch of guys I don't know talking about - SOFTBALL. Not really much there to get "mad" about. So, no, not mad. And, you're right, I did quote you right away but only because I didn't agree with your assessment that "the...

    What is the best glove size for a slowpitch SS?

    Nope, not mad bro, just wondering why you singled out my response and made it personal. And, I've never blamed my glove for anything my friend. Unless the lacing broke, which has happened, anything I've missed has been my fault. You don't know me from the man on the moon buddy, not sure why...

    What is the best glove size for a slowpitch SS?

    So, first and foremost, I haven't tried to tell you any "old baseball hero stories" dude so check yourself. I've played SS from C down so I've had shots hit at me my friend. Point 2 - I never said anything about an 11.5" glove did I? Show me where I did - yep, that's what I thought, never...

    What is the best glove size for a slowpitch SS?

    Come on man, do you even play the IF? I never said you wouldn't be able to find the ball in the pocket but, if there's less glove to worry about, it makes it easier. It's not like I have to go rummaging around in my glove to get the ball. I've used a larger glove in the IF and to me, the...

    What is the best glove size for a slowpitch SS?

    Totally disagree here. It's not just about trying to turn a double play but being able to get the ball out of the pocket quickly on just about every time you touch it. Cut off throws, ground balls, etc..... An extra inch or two isn't going to really help you reach ground balls that you...

    What is the best glove size for a slowpitch SS?

    I use a 12.5" Nokona on the IF and it's perfect. I think anything larger may be too much.

    Taking a walk

    In the situation described, take the walk, league or tourney. I have always been one to take a strike before I swing the bat. And, I've found that when I don't take a strike first, I usually make more outs. I know, I know, that's totally a mental thing, I get it but that's the way it is...

    3RD BASE

    OK, so, it looks like I'm gonna be the 1st to say it ...... It's where you're comfortable and where the hitters are hitting. There isn't a set place for you to position yourself. You need to be close enough to the line to get to just about anything hit down the line but far enough off the...

    Softball dying a slow death?

    So, the park I play at in the Atlanta area is having the same problem. They have 3 levels, Advanced, Intermediate and Beginner but the teams are allowed to sign up for the level they want - not sure why. But, because of a lack of teams signing up, the Advanced level had to be shut down and the...

    11 or 12 in lineup

    Bat 12 and let guys rotate in and out as they want. If you've got guys who can play anywhere, it's no big deal. If you're 11 and 12 guy are limited with where they play, they rotate where they can. If you have other guys that can play anywhere, let them just shift with the rest. Either way...

    Bat You Wish They Still Made

    Original LS Genesis and the original Mizuno TechFires. The Genesis was just a touch behind the Ultras in my opinion but it's durability was about 100 swings or something with the balls of that time. The TechFire was one that just fit my swing and seemed to make hitting .800 for a tourney...
