6th Annual Swinging Bunt Super Draft Tournament (April 27-29)

Got hits?
I've been involved in every bunt. This one went very well. I apologize for anyone who didn't have fun. This isn't a normal cash payout tourney. They run the tourney. Get donations, raffle them off. Get the food and drink, and sell it. All for CHARITY. Glad tose people are worried about stats and not how their money helped others.

Good playing ball with you sir :D

Very awesome tourney again Swinging Bunt crew. Hill family thoroughly enjoyed the trip and the softball. Mel just said few minutes ago that she has lived and played softball in Indiana for 7 years now and she feels more at home and comfortable playing with our IL neighbors. I agree with her 100%.

Now for the weather...time for Mother Nature to not have her time of the month when this tourney plays lol! Maybe do what they did for the Halloween tourney, move it out a week or two.

As for live stats, oh I REALLY REALLY didnt want to see my stats. My hitting was so pitiful, been a really long time since I struggled that much. But very cool addition to a tourney, first time I have ever seen a full tourney to see live scoreboard.

dozen A+'s for the Swinging Bunt crew.

Well said Shell like Dusty said if people are worried about their stats they are in the wrong tournament Everyone needs to keep in ind this tournament is for the kids and raising as much money for them as possible, I have been to every bunt and Dusty and his crew seem to find a way to up the ante every year and this year was no exception

Good playing ball with you sir :D

Thanks. Was great to meet aboard bro. But I'm old and slow and unlike others I could care less about stats. It was a fun day and if it wasn't for Kevbo and his hilarous Team Mayonaisse stuff we may have folded early.

No, F mat ball.

I would gladly kick in another $15-$20 buck registration if It meant we have real umps and no friggin mat. It takes a lot away from pitching and the strategery that goes with it. :D

He brought it all together but you did some great pitching. Add some great defense and hitting and we just had it going lol. :D:cool:

Mat takes away from strike zone issues. That is gtg :D

I can't count how many times I said "f that mat" in our last game that mat was about the size of a rat trap. Just gets in your head.

No problemo AJ. It was fun. Nothing like hitting a golf ball with a strong wind behind ya.

It worked for you. You struck me out in the first game! But i don't think the strike out pitch went above my waist. And the volunteer ump called it cuz it hit the mat! lol

I can't believe I went the whole weekend without seeing you Johnny. I wish we were in the same pool. I guess with 280 players this year it's hard to see all the board bros.

The other half of us couldn't pitch without a mat? Now how do I go about getting a Piehouse jersey?

Great tourney as always. The people upstairs did a fine job learning how to use the scoring ap and keeping track of the scores. I'm not there for stats, I'm there for a great cause and to meet, play with, & against some really really good ball players from all over.....Oh, and you to Kurs76.

I saw you take a walk as I was leaving on saturday. I had my 10 month with me so I couldn't hang out and talk.

We changed our colors and jerseys this season. Tbone300+ was wearing our white one on Saturday.

What number you wear? I got about 25 #42 jerseys. I even wore two of our limited edition ones this weekend. So limited only I have 1.
Pinstripes and the blackout

I normally wear #5 but 42 works if you got it in something that fits my 3x petite needs :)

Another great tourney. I'll be making my way down from WI again next year. Hopefully everyone made it home safe. I know I got caught in a monsoon just north of Lasalle. Cant wait for next year

honestly the whole stats thing is being taken wrong. this was my 4th year and i am here to have fun, meet people, help a good cause, and play a sport i absolutely love to play. i really appreciate the thought and effort that was put into the stat keeping. and i love playing with you all and i donate as much as i can. just was a thought that if its gonna be done that it could be accurate. i would be more then willing to help anyway i can.

only had to watch 1/2 inning of her game Sunday, her team had 9am game and they lost. So we packed the kiddos up and haul butt back to IN. Was great playing with you, Was fun watching gappers go between us and both of us staring at each other like "thats yours" lol.

Mel is good peeps, played on a team with her last year... can't remember if it was Washko's or Belly's lol

yeah Mel good peeps. It was Belly's team. She hit pretty good this year, I think she hit better than me. :eek:

holy crap was the drive home last night horrible.

windy as a motherfugger and some nasty construction.

i really want to punch whoever told us that was a better route right in the BAG.

my heart was racing for most of Iowa city. pretty sure we almost died twice.

1st: almost got run off the road by a logging truck.

2nd: had a Semi fish tail in front of us.

3rd: we saw this truck go out of control. messed stuff up quite a bit yesterday
