.52 balls- Have they made you a better hitter?

[FAT JESUS]

i see you crying

Another poor attempt, one more lap for you. Thankfully Utrip and GSL have ignored you whiners out here. At least people who aren't afraid of a softball still have a place to play.

I'm not sure I follow how it's less rewarding.

So a 52 in the summer feels good off the bat? Another nice try. Dont tell me about spinning it either, I know all about it trust me. That ball feels like **** and you know it. Why don't they use it in the conference? Its just as rewarding, then the guys that get paid to play should love it right? Wrong.

Nope, still hit the same.

Nope, another poor attempt. Laps for all you post count nerds, take em together, it will save time.

I like the 52.

Makes the game a real game now.

A pure hitter still mashed them out, but gone are the BS goners from weak pop ups and poor contact leaking out from hitting composite bats and stadium balls in small rec league parks.

I prefer the 52. The sluggers are sluggers, and the slap hitters are nothing but. No more weak hitters popping up a ball out of a small park in rec league. Gotta earn it now with clean hits.

Now plays are being made to score and defend. Which is the point of the game.

But I guess all the sleeve wearing dbags can't hit out the Hot Dots out and can't use their brain to score runs hitting for average, so :crying:

I still play in a Grey Dot league, and frankly, it isn't as fun of a game as everyone gets hits even on poor contact with those and the modern Utrip bats.

At what? I responded to the OP, not you. New thing they just came out with called, quoting. See how I quote the post I'm responding to?

Not sure what you're saying here. I agree they don't feel good or sound good but they do perform BETTER than a classic m in 90+ degree heat. I'm to the point that I'd rather hit the 52 ball. Which is good bc I play mainly NSA. Classic m's are fun in the cold but I'd prefer the ball to have consistent performance year round. Just my 2 cents. Perhaps I should take a lap

 

[Joker]

he's just crying cause he can't hit with them

 

[THESHOE]

The more Fat Jesus posts the more I agree with Joker's post of the crying baby...

And you know hell freezes over if I have to start agreeing with Joker on things...

Seriously man, the 52 puts emphasis on good hits and helps because most leagues/tourneys don't even run in full sized parks.

This past weekend we had a downwind game in a tourney where it was a struggle to keep the 52 in the park and there was a 2 HR max limit. I am sure that kind of game would be "so fun" to play with the 40/400 they used to use.... When you piece a gap shot and it floats out of the park for an out because your 2 HRs were burned 1st inning.

Keep trying it might hold up if you say it fourteen more times.

Not sure what classic M you hit but the Thunder we hit in the midwest felt way better than any 52 last summer, no lap for you, not necessary.

he has no response to me being right so he just insults

Whaaaa, Im crying, whaaaa.......So you want a mush ball to protect against wind aided hr's in Rec/E? Im the one crying? If your "Gap shots" are "floating out of the park", why don't you play up Johnny Ballgame?

 

[FAT JESUS]

I respond to your insults, with indifference, and better insults; then you cry. Simple formula, works everytime. Take another lap captain post count.

 

[Joker]

thanks for proving my point

 

[THESHOE]

Because they play in parks closer to 400ft middle or more, with full sized diamonds and to put on a show for fans and possibly even ESPN coverage or streaming?

If you are playing with a 52 in their size ballpark, then I might agree it is BS.

But judging by all the complaining about a ball, you're no conference hitter, so I'd say it belongs in rec.

Why don't they use it in the conference?

 

[FAT JESUS]

Do you ever have a point? You know you dont, you are just wasting time to get through the day.

 

[Joker]

my point is you're a crybaby, you keep proving that

 

[FAT JESUS]

Man you have lost your touch, have a great day, stay busy my man!

 

[THESHOE]

So I can hang out with Dbags all weekend and have the same thing happen anyways?

No thanks. Unless I am A/B, I will stay where I am with people I enjoy drinking beer with.

Go ahead and take your penile extensions hitting stadium balls out of 300ft parks, probably using hotter ASA bats too.... :biggthumpup:

something something take a lap

 

[THESHOE]

Hell froze over, I agree.... +1

[scuderia]

Just sitting here waiting for Joker to ask Fat Hesus "Why so serious?"

 

[The BP Hero]

He so mad.

 

[Youcallthemlogs]

What does "take a lap" mean or in reference too? I had trouble following it.

 

[THESHOE]

I think he means lap around the bases for the HRs we can still hit with a 52 while he hits into double plays or an OF glove all day now....

[Youcallthemlogs]

Okay, I thought he meant being a db and running out a hr, but wasn't sure.

Zn's. Idk. If I'm free swinging in bp, when I'm pickin my hr balls up it seems the 52s aren't much different from almost any ball in the heat really. Aside from the 525s mixed in the bag. I will say though, that I cut the crap out of the ball so my swing goes well with these balls and don't see much of a difference other than my line drives hanging up longer.

 

[THESHOE]

I bet he does that when juicing out a stadium ball in a 260ft park at Church league night... :bigok:
