Sept. 14, 2011 Dusty	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: B.A.S.A. WORLD TOURNAMENT I'm a little late to the party but I would like to say Congratulations to my friends, George Robinson, Billy Steele and Ron Danoski. Dusty

March 20, 2011 Dusty	Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Laughlin I would recommend the Aquarius right now. With Casino Drive under construction it's good to stay close to Rt. 95 When the construction is done Harrah's is also a nice place. Good luck.
June 16, 2008 Dusty	Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: NO PITCH OR ILLEGAL PITCH With all due respect to Paul, I would say that since the pitcher did not pitch the ball that it is a no pitch. I don’t have a rule book but I have played senior ball many years and I have “observed what I consider similar situations many times. I have seen a pitcher start to deliver a ball and stop before releasing for many reasons. Just to name a few: 1. A ball from another field comes into the field (even if the umpire doesn’t see it). 2. A player who was just thrown out is returning to his dugout behind the catcher and it was distracting. 3. A dugout gate door is left open and the pitcher notices it. 4. A bat is in live territory and the pitcher sees it and stops because he thinks it’s dangerous. 5. A fan or person wonders on the field. 6. He stops to check the positioning of his defensive players. 7. The batter steps out of the batter’s box even though the ump did not call time. I could probably list a hundred reason’s that I have seen. In every case the call by the umpire was “no pitch”. So I guess I would call it a no pitch too. Its seems to me that player safety (you said the third baseman did not have his glove on his hand) is as good a reason to not pitch as any of the ones I listed above. To me he didn’t pitch so it’s a no pitch, but like I said I don’t have a rule book. I only know what I have observed.
July 14, 2005 Dusty	Topic: Bats Discussion: Ultra II Beyond 2005 My vote is to keep the U2 in 2006. Freak accidents not withstanding, since the 1.20 BPF has been in use, senior softball accident rates have gone down. The data seems to say keep the bats that meet this standard.
