Topic: Bats
Discussion: ASA Senior Bats

I take it then that senior bats have more 'pop'? I have a senior Rip-It is that considered a hot/hotter bat?

Discussion: Catcher's verbal interference

In our little league kids would yell "Swing batter, batter, SWING!"

If the batter would just swing the bat when the other team yelled the second "SWING!" they would have hit the ball more often.

Runner on third did cross the plate before they got the guy trying to return to second.

I guess we got hosed the other night. One out, runners on 2nd and 3rd, fly out to left. Runner on 2nd thinking it was two outs takes off on the hit, runner on 3rd properly tags and scores. Defense throws to 2nd base getting the runner who left early for the third out. Defense successfully convinces the umpire the run does not count.

Discussion: Best website for titanium necklaces?

Where is the titantium? The lable says:
62% polyester, 33% cotton, 5% polyurethane
Doesn't that add up to 100%?

Discussion: Looking for a backstop net...

I ended up buying a Skilz practice net. It's working out good.

Discussion: 52/300 slow pitch softballs

This is pretty much the discussion I was looking for.
Is the 52 core 300 comp considered one of the 'hot' balls? How does that compare to a 44/375 Worth Super Gold Dot? Anything hotter than the 52/300?

Oh I'm sure with my power I would just be blasting the balls through the blankets! (ok maybe not)

...something I could possibly use in my basement and/or outside.
I'm looking for something I can set up a batting tee in front of and hit softballs into.
Any ideas on where to look?

Discussion: Local leagues testing bats

This would be in Midland Michigan. I haven't seen what kind of device they are using to test with but I assume it does some kind of compression test. It would detect bats that had been shaved but not bats that are shaved after getting the hologram.

Discussion: Local leagues testing bats

Anyone else doing this? Our league will not only require the proper ASA logo but will conduct their own testing and put a unique hologram on each bat before it can be used in league play this year.

Discussion: Are some Positions more important than others?

I didn't read every last message in this incredibly long thread but I would like to add a good first baseman is important to a team. Does do much good to have a shortstop with a great glove and a rocket arm if there is no one across the diamond who can scoop the ball up.

Discussion: Something most married guys can relate too...

"Jetboy, in the scenario you describe I'd guess that guys wife has more issues with him than simply not calling her that night."

I don't presume to know what issues the two of them may have, I just found it interesting that it prompted so many of the guys on the team to call there wives the next time we went late.

Discussion: Something most married guys can relate too...

At a recent ball game we played a make up game an hour after our regularly scheduled 7pm game concluded. At the end of the make up game, as most of us were leaving the parking lot, I saw one of the players wives arrive and give her husband a piece of her mind about him being out so late and not letting her know.

Next game that player wasn't there but nobody had much to say other than "Did you see that in the parking lot last
game?". During this game it was decided to make up another game since one of the teams wasa already there on another field.

At the conclusion of our first game I said to a group of teammates "I think I'll call my wife and let her know we've got another game" a guy chimed in "I already called mine" and a second player said "Can I borrow your phone to call my wife?"

But for the grace of God go I.

Discussion: Slide or give up

I was in the base line waiting for the throw. I would say I had the ball early enough for him to slide or avoid.

Discussion: Slide or give up

I was playing third and a base runner was trying to advance to third. A good throw to me in plenty of time and I tagged him as he crashed into me. Another player on my team suggested he did it in order to make me drop the ball. Is that legal? If so, should it be?

Discussion: Home plate pitching mat

I'm not quite getting this question:

"Also comments on how the batters box is affected as the mat would narrow the box if not adjuster?"

How does the mat affect the batters box?
