Oct. 20, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count Just a quick question LP what age division and class do you play...... Just curious |
Oct. 19, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count LP I will say this as a pitcher I'm going to do my best to get you to hit my pitch hit into my defense it's my job as a pitcher to get you out ...... Pitching cookies for you to T off on is not part of the game plan that is one reason I would prefer a 1-1 count the game is still underhanded so it's not like I can throw a 100 mph heater by you...... Just food for thought........ Do you think maybe they changed the Home run rule to maybe take just swing for the fences and walk to first out of the game now you have to learn how to hit ....... Aka play the game |
Oct. 19, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count LP just from the sounds of it you seem to be one of the guys who is standing at the plate looking for that perfect pitch ......might as well put it on a T for you..... I mean no disrespect in that comment but let's try and speed the game up just a bit....... Last time I checked its still pitched UNDERHAND .... Right ???? |
Oct. 11, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count SSUSA Staff so if I was to attend this meeting in December and was to bring this before the committee they would take a new poll to see if this was something that the members wanted....... Also just for my information how many people are on the rules committee and do they still currently play this kids game that we love and are so passionate about |
Oct. 9, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count Just a question to anybody at SSUSA STAFF...... How many new members has SSUSA acquired sense the last poll and at what cost or harm would it be to explore this issue now ........Thank you for your time on this issue |
Oct. 7, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count Maybe after the reply that SSUSA Staff just posted maybe and I say maybe it's time for some NEW BLOOD in the executive office who want to see the game grow as well as be willing to maybe just maybe revisit a few rule changes more than every 6 years ..... Which I think is sad because every tournament I have had the pleasure of playing in is one of if not the best organization I have been associated with with that I say Thank You for a job well done...... I can see that this rule will not change . I wasn't trying ruffle any feathers was wanting to see what the thought was on a 1-1 rule change....... Keep up the good work guys |
Oct. 7, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count SSUSA Staff .... Simple solution send out a new survey and let the chips or should I say count fall where it will and poll 50-65 and 65+ have 2 polls but do it soon not in 2018 ..... It's a hot topic now ...... Like everything if it don't work or it don't help the game Change it back ........ This is a simple fix |
Oct. 6, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count Great point Tim as I previously stated I see NO REASON to to have to look at 5 pitches before you are put on notice you have 1 pitch left to hit , walk or make an out . It just seems guys forget the defense is trying to get you out that's why there are more people on the field other than just a pitcher |
Oct. 6, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count Marv19.... I love the fact that the numbers are flawed ...... The point here is the old guys who make the rules are not going to make a change because they don't think its proper again just my opinion but I know I didn't get a vote in this survey..... Just wish they would do a true poll and if it comes up the majority want 0-0 then that's what it will be but at least give us a fair shake |
Oct. 5, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count I find some of these comments funny ... If you think getting 5 pitches to look at before you pull the trigger to swing is comical and then you say that with a 1-1 count your more likely to go back through the box .. I say go take some BP and learn some bat control ...... With this logic after you get a full count pull out a T and take your last swing that way...... Then we get that it takes away from the purity of the game ..... It's a GIRLS game that we play its slo pitch not fast don't get me wrong I LOVE THIS GAME and will play by whatever rules they govern us by would just like to see it changed to 1-1 again just my opinion |
Oct. 4, 2014 Pitcher22 | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 1 and 1 pitch count What are the majority of players opinions of starting with a 1 and 1 count . I would be for it as I think it speeds up the game . Your thoughts on this |
