March 17, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: website has unwanted software Thank you staff for the update. |
March 4, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: A new Novel. A great read! Another great read is Level Playing Fields by Peter Morris. Besides Amazon, it's available on the Libby App. A good app if you like E books or audio versions. https://www.nebraskapress.unl.edu/nebraska-paperback/9780803246300/ |

Feb. 23, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: Bats Discussion: Bat Advice-Break in and onward Most hitters turn a new bat less than a 1/4 inch after each swing. Some bats show numbers 1-8 on them and some players mark their bats themselves. If you don't rotate these bats every time and your a power hitter, you might break it sooner if hitting the same area constantly. |
Feb. 21, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: Teams looking for players Discussion: Players needed for 75 AA/AAA team Softballin2013, look up rule 13.1(2) Players must play in regions. |
Feb. 12, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Batters Box Rule Change Then you have a possible discussion with the umpire when the ball is contacted by the batter if the ump was quick enough to see if the batters foot was in front of this line when ball is contacted. I'd rather see the ump move out to the right to see a close play at first. |
Feb. 9, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: Bats Discussion: Vietnam Platoon Leader Finds a Longer Stride helps him Develop More Rotational Hip Power Batter’s Box. The batter must take an initial position with his back foot behind a line defining the front edge of home plate. The batter will be called out if he hits the ball when the back foot is completely forward of that line. How will this effect hitter's who have a strong hip rotation which includes moving the rear foot forward quite a bit. Many have the lead foot on the forward batter's box line. Set up deeper in the box and hope the pitcher doesn't pitch to the front of the plate? |
Feb. 8, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: St George, UT in Oct. 2024 WC Go on the HWSG web page and open Team Finder. Click on List of Players; Add Yourself to the List; under Sport, click on Softball Men. Fill it out then submit. You should also go back to Team Finder and open up List of Teams and check that page periodically. Right now, there's a 65 team looking for help. Obviously, these links get busier the closer to the start of the games with some teams losing a player or two after a busy travel/rec softball season. https://seniorgames.net/team-finder |
Feb. 2, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Runner advances to what base? Jerry, When my goal of helping a team win a free ring and get to TOC at least once, no matter how much it may rain, I might get in touch with you. Would like a shot at winning a pair of cleats. Don't forget who first brought up the wrong position of the new turf right handed batter's box at Yankee stadium at BLD Vegas. Wasn't the umpire. I'd have to take some classes with KC first and read the current rule book for a few months. After calling you, I'd have to call a divorce attorney. |
Feb. 1, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Runner advances to what base? Since the throw by the pitcher was the first play, I believe positioning reverts back to where base runners were at the time of the pitch. If an outfield throw goes into dead ball territory, decision is made based on where runners were at the time of the throw. That's why single game umpires have to stop watching the ball (it will take care of itself) and check on runners touching bases. Scan the base runners position as the ball is finally thrown. |
