omega II. i went 1/4.. one pop up and 3 hard grounders... i am attacking low balls to avoid hitting one in the air. I don't like it. for two weeks, we had like total of 6 inning ending bombs hitting classic Ms. I should not be the one to worry about it but still though... anyway, i am attacking the balls that are chest below next week. screw it if it goes over.

since I know this all too well, i'd say it's more dipping while thinking you're attacking...swing might be level which hits the ball square but the reality is you're just swinging at bad pitches. believe me, I re-learn this lesson all the time. if you can make it work, great...but if not, not so great.
Same here. Our games don't start until the end of March.

Only winter league in So Cal me thinks. Then again the rain has killed most of our games
Nah were playing winter league in Colorado. Nothing spices up the work week like having a 34 degree classic M ripped at you on the infield.

I miss winter league in CO
If I waited to play when it was over 60 I wouldn't see a league game until probably May. Thrown some under armour under a hoodie and run it!
Yeah no that's too much. I don't mind some cold, but that slippery cold **** is for the birds.

Yeah, it would take some kinda stir crazy for me to play in a "snowball tournament" as they call em around here. Miss the sweet spot and your teeth would fall out.

We had an annual snowball tourney for years, it was a fundraiser for corvlla house it is an organization that helps mentally and physically challenged adults.. it was a pretty big deal here with up to I believe close to 30 mens and coed teams at one point.. our team won it either the last year or the year prior to the organizers giving it up.. it was 3 or 4 maybe 5 years ago.. that year one if the traveling teams invited and brought in Jeff Hall, a few of us had the opportunity to have a few beers with him at the watering hole that help sponsor the event..
The first few years that I played in it i thought was pretty cool with plenty of snow on the ground , the last two year I played in it was not so cool, we had early thaws and it was a mud fest (not fun).. i remember one year my first ab I got an inside the park hr with the ball buried in 10" of snow somewhere between the pitchers mound and home plate
by the time I made it around 3b on my way to home all infielders catcher and one or two outfielders were rolling around in the snow trying to find the ball..lol

Charity tournament here in Santa Barbara for a good buddy who passed away a couple months ago. Celebration is what it felt like.
Weather was awesome, and the dudes from the teams that attended were super nice, sharing beer and bbq food with anyone in proximity.
I got a chance to “game” swing a few bats and hit a couple dingers to finish the day. I haven’t played in six months so that was perfect!
So, yeah! Softball!
