Thanks for the heads up Crusher, Larry; what is up there, 20's and 30's? I've still got my Bombat 36 oz, can't believe I swung that pipe. Are you playing with Makule's this year?. Sorry 17 Black I came from the Shen. Valley Va. and that was cold enough for me.

Now that the temps here in South Texas are Polar Bear Friendly.. I've broke out my Worth Green EST C405,, This bat is 9 yrs old,,will hit any ball in any conditions, and NEVER BREAK!!And probably only gives up 10-20' ft in Distance, to a Composite.Bring back this Bat and the core 47. Super Blue Dot or the 47. Dudley Thunder,and the distance would match a composite. Players could save a lot of money.

Pulled Muscles I never knew I had on Lipitor/ simvastatin, plus Benicar. Switched to Crestor,and Benicar and went the whole season without a pulled ham or quad. Everyone is different, check with your Doctor.

At least he got the hit, (on the head), Was playing with Tx Thunder AAA at the Vegas Worlds, 2nd pool game of the day against Tri State I think,, Desert Wind Fields, the one where there's an embankment behind the outfield with Picnic tables at the top. Playing right field, went back on a shot deep, started, back peddling ,, caught it at the fence,at the same time,it sounded like a Wolf Pack was fighting over the last bone of the day.A lady had 2 giant shepherds and was watching the game behind rt. field,, when I went back,I scared them, they rushed the fence,growling and snapping,I stood, and stared in disbelef ,, our right center fielder is screaming throw in the ball, throw in the ball, The guy on 2nd tagged and scored, the guy on first tagged and went to 3rd.I proably would have been better off to hit my head and get knocked out!! lol.

We has an Ump at Desert Breeze Friday morning for 60 AAA pool game Titans versus Texas Thunder, that had never umpired a slow pitch softball game!! Our catcher had to tell him what was legal and what wasn't.

Discussion: Heat

After Playing in College Station Tx. several weeks ago with a heat index of 105, I experienced cramps so bad I couldn't drive home.
Have done Pickle Juice, Potassium & calcium supplements, with no success. Then I read an article about Magnesium being the key to unlock the muscle to allow calcium and potassium to do their job. I took 800 mgs of Magnesium and 400 mgs of Potassium a day before and during playing at Plano Tx this weekend. The heat index was 104 all 3 days. Played outfield all 5 games, and pinch ran at least 10 times Not one cramp anywhere, has anyone else tried Magnesium?? http://www.livestrong.com/article/525008-cramping-magnesium/
