| Feb. 5, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1-1 count no extra foul tourney southerson...Don't shoot all the dogs because some have fleas..I'm 64. Yesterday we played with 3 teams...rotating each inning...Played 8 innings in 2 hours..I was up 7 times and had a total of 10 pitches...Note that this is a Senior League in Prescott, AZ...Just sayin..I go up to hit as do most of my buddies.. |
| Feb. 4, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1-1 count no extra foul tourney swing...all...I have no problem with either way we go..Interesting conversatio today at our game...Most of the guys I talked to also don't care about 0-0...1-1, 70' bases..But the guys I talked with didn't even vote...Not really sure why ...I do know that quite a few of them don't play Tourneys and don't get on this site...Call it what you will, but none of them voted...That could be a big issue...BTW: I play both 60's and 65 tourneys and like most of you...I just play because I can.. |
| Jan. 28, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Copper Classic Allan: I agree...While waiting for the rain to let up...I got to hang out with a couple of players from Rocco's...Great guys and a lot of good conversation..Also hung out with a couple of players from Texas Drillers...Nice guys until they started kicking our asses from the get go.... |
| Jan. 26, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Copper Classic boston..I was in the on deck circle when the skies opened up..After a 2 hour delay...My understanding was the same as yours...The City cancelled the tourney...But the fields where a mess anyway. Kind of a bummer but nothing they could do... |
| Jan. 20, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Copper Classic SSUSA staff....Thanks for the response..See you on Friday... |
| Jan. 19, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Copper Classic I'm usually the least negative person towards SSUSA..But we were scheduled to play at 11:30 on Friday...Now we are playing at 3:30...Which means I now have to change my hotel reservations at the last minute..The positive is...It saves me one day of a hotel charge.. |
| Jan. 19, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Copper Classic boston..I was a little surprised also..But I'll play anyway...Don't know the reason but I know the team I play for will be there... |
| Jan. 17, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Tucson Copper Classic SSUSA Staff...Quick question...70' bases in Tucson yes or no ? Thanks |
| Jan. 17, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Tucson Copper Classic Looks like they are only playing at Lincoln Park...Anyone have any reviews about that facility ?... |
| Jan. 16, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: Tournment Pitcher from NY looking to join a team John..I'm right with you on this...I'll even use my pink bat :-o) |
| Jan. 15, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: What were the results in Menifee this weekend. John..I almost forgot...I put the ones back in your bag where I found the first one :-o) |
| Jan. 15, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: What were the results in Menifee this weekend. John...That was me...Unfortunately ....It broke :-o) |
| Jan. 15, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: What were the results in Menifee this weekend. John...I'm sure it wasn't you that broke any..I've seen you swing :-o) |
| Jan. 10, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Age groups titanhd..That was what I thought and actually makes sense..My commitment is to the 65's...Thanks for the info.... Tom |
| Jan. 10, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Age groups John: Now that hurts...funny as hell however...Small pool to pick from here in Prescott...desperate times need desperate measures :-o). Besides, someone has to carry the equipment..Thanks for the info.. |
| Jan. 10, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Age groups If I am currently playing with a 65aa..Can I also play 60 aaa ? We had a discussion about this in out morning practice today...No one seems to know the answer. I've looked around and can't find the answer either.. |
| Jan. 6, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: More 1-1 Count Talk ss13: I pitch occasionally ( not very well )...Heck yes I would prefer 1-1...It's one less strike to worry about... |
| Jan. 6, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: More 1-1 Count Talk wagon: Don't get angry...:-o). I'm 64 and really don't care if it's 0-0 1-1 2-2...I very seldom take more than 1 pitch anyway..Most of the guys I know here in Prescott feel the same way.... |
| Jan. 3, 2013 Olden Slow | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: More 1-1 Count Talk Tim, I agree with most of what you said, very well put. Speaking for myself, I play 65's and I am aggressive at the plate (not always a good thing)...They could start with a 1-1 or 0-0..Either way, I figure that most times the pitcher is going to throw a strike on the first pitch anyway...I only walked 2 times the entire 2012 season..I figure you pitch it....I'll hit it...low, high, short, deep...Doesn't matter much to me...Maybe the wrong approach, but I'm up there to hit anyway...Just my .02... |
