| Jan. 24, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Tournament Results Big JimC Director Tim has done that in the past. I believe a player once took photos of the on site brackets and posted them. |
| Jan. 22, 2024 DieselDan | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Tournament Results There are results Jmac, just not posted yet. Around 25 teams were done on Thursday. With only six posts so far, you will learn that tournament results of all games take awhile. |

| Nov. 7, 2023 DieselDan | Topic: Teams looking for players Discussion: Scrap Iron Club looking to build new 70 and 75 teams I Don't Know. 3rd Base. For those of us who have completed the contact link, will we receive word if we have not made the cut? Thank you and all my best to the Scrap Iron organization. |
| Nov. 6, 2023 DieselDan | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: shipping more than 1 bat at a time The USPS, UPS, or FedEX might carry 36" tubes. Amazon does, but a little pricey. I bought a couple from the USPS to put in my bag to make it easier to put in and remove a bat. |
| Oct. 13, 2023 DieselDan | Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: 75 AAA pitcher MDog. There's a another 75AAA looking for a pitcher and a few other healthy players. Several teammates are retiring or moving on to another sport. Team is based in So. Cal and is partially sponsored. Please dial 760-533-8230 and speak with Howard. |
| Oct. 6, 2023 DieselDan | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 35-35 Amazing! During our BP session today, I showed Col Mike Smith this thread. He takes out his phone, pulls up HOF Don Clatterbough. During a stretch of tournaments, Don went 102 out of 104 at bats and he had power to spare. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7V1F-EEYLE |
| Sept. 7, 2023 DieselDan | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Definition of "moderate speed" of a pitch I'm thinking what would be considered a pitch that is too fast originated from close to the 50' pitching rubber and only reaches 6' high. Most of those type 0f pitches probably only reach the front of the plate. |
| Sept. 3, 2023 DieselDan | Topic: Product review Discussion: Thumb gaurds Not really, but more controlled and consistent swings. At 76 my bat speed is still going to come from good and consistent swing mechanics and time in the gym. In all honesty, I doubt the MLB players, who get these guards for free, are getting more bat speed or power. Another item used is the bat grip taper. Makes the left hand feel so much more comfortable. |
| Sept. 3, 2023 DieselDan | Topic: Product review Discussion: Thumb gaurds I've used both the guard with a wider rounded end and the thumb pro. The thumb pro is the only one used currently. It works on either hand, feels comfortable, no sting in cold weather, and helps keep the bat positioned properly in my hand. The Thumb Pro initially cost $25, but is at $30. The Pro Hitter's product can be bought for about $9. If you do buy one of them, get two. I've had a couple misplaced the last couple of years. |
| Aug. 22, 2023 DieselDan | Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: Huntsman softball turny You might have to sign up before looking for a team. Their website has been changed. https://seniorgames.net/team-finder/players |
| Aug. 9, 2023 DieselDan | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Tag Up If I don't know the umpire, I let them know that I'll have one foot hanging over the lead edge of the bag and the other one behind the bag. I'll start moving towards the next bag when the ball is a couple of feet from the glove. The lead foot is still in contact with the bag, but my 150lbs is already in motion. Haven't had a defense appeal leaving too soon in years. |
