Playing in my first real sanctioned tournament and have some questions

[Chrisklol]

E in tX gets 2 hrs. Unless it's states.

Yea unless they are the super serious tournaments then each director gives however many they want.

 

[Lord7]

Two outs......
Your team is down........
You hit ball out of the park.........
You walk off........

Game over, you lose!

Ha ha! Sounds like you were at my game! In any event you nailed it!

 

[stork]

I have been on teams where the game ended and we lost when we hit a dbo. One of the most depressing ways to lose.

 

[Lord7]

Walkoff DBOs are the ultimate "screw you guys, I'm going home"

Yep pretty much

 

[Lord7]

I don't think my team minded all that much. They seemed eager to get back and drink more beer. I was tired of hearing a few of them whine to be honest. It was my favorite hit of the whole tournament and that is what its all about, the memories!

 

[stork]

We play with different kinds of teams and different mindsets. I get that.

 

[Lord7]

We play with different kinds of teams and different mindsets. I get that.

Oh this wasn't my team. I'd have never done that to my own tam. These guys, I only knew one of them prior to the last week.

 

[stork]

Yes, but the mindset was yours. As I said, we are different and I get that.

 

[Lord7]

Yes, but the mindset was yours. As I said, we are different and I get that.

Are you Implying that we are different bc you can't hit near 400 foot walk off homers? That is what I'm getting from this exchange of words we ate having.

 

[stork]

I never have hit a 400' hr and at this point I doubt I will ever. But that is a superficial difference. Don't be mad, differences are what makes the world go round.

 

[Madbeers]

So, you hit a true walkoff (walked off the fields)? As in you hit a DBO and your guys tourney was done? And you did it on purpose?

 

[stork]

But it wasn't his team. I mean it was him, but not him cuz not his team. But it did travel a long way so he wins according to him.

 

[Madbeers]

Even bigger tool than I thought.

 

[stork]

But he hits 400' hr's. I am just glad I don't play on 400' fields as my hr's only go about 310-320 generally.

 

[Lord7]

So, you hit a true walkoff (walked off the fields)? As in you hit a DBO and your guys tourney was done? And you did it on purpose?

I hit an inning ender in the top of the 7th. I wouldnt say I for sure did it on purpose. I picked a spot on the pitcher's forehead and said I was going to hit it as hard as possible. I hit it and the ball took off like a rocket. Unlike any homer I ever hit before. A missile that got 15 feet off the ground at its highest point. The crowd was very impressed, as was I. Game over.

 

[stork]

Well, that is all that counts. Well done.

So it was a mis-hit? Not to mention you're a real class act aiming for the pitcher's head.

 

[Lord7]

So it was a mis-hit?

No, not even close. I hit the **** out of it dead on.

 

[stork]

But you missed the pitcher you were aiming for. I thought I had this figured out, but now I am confused. Was it a pitcher on another field or was he a spectator?

 

[Lord7]

I only missed him bc he ducked down like a little ***** to get out of the way.

 

[NDshotokan]

He should have snapped you off like all the SBF heroes do.

 

[stork]

If that thing travelled 400' and almost hit him, ***** or not he was smart to get out of the way. Must have been traveling at 150+mph. Live to play another day. It is only softball after all.

 

[Madbeers]

You sound like a horrible teammate bro. Glad your personal glory comes in front of the team. You sound like a Yankee guy.

 

[stork]

Personal glory is all he cares about even when that glory is only apparent to him. He is his own glory hole.

 

[Lord7]

You sound like a horrible teammate bro. Glad your personal glory comes in front of the team. You sound like a Yankee guy.

:yawn: Horrible teammate? We wouldn't have even been in that game had I not won us one earlier with an off the fence stand up 3 run double. I'd hope the teammates would show some damn gratitude for even getting to play with me.

 

[Kaji]

I hit it and the ball took off like a rocket. Unlike any homer I ever hit before. A missile that got 15 feet off the ground at its highest point. The crowd was very impressed, as was I. Game over.

So that means you hit the ball harder than guys like Connell, Fulk, Helmer, Robo, all those guys? Not thinking this is the truth.

 

[stork]

It is true, just ask him.

 

[exccsracer]

I'd hope the teammates would show some damn gratitude for even getting to play with me.

I have no idea who you are, nor do I care but you sound like the biggest douche ever.

 

[Ferrari1]

LOL - I love L7's sarcasm and sense of humor. Always get a chuckle. I'd love to BP with ya in January - I am down there on business.

Yup me to how far from west palm are you?

 

[out-cast]

I briefly skimmed through this thread. Who were you playing for 7? We were knocked out after the 9:45pm game yesterday.
