Discussion: foggy sunglasses

I'm kind of confused by some of the advice. Wearing sunglasses during night games?
Wearing your ball cap backwards to stop your glasses from steaming? Isn't the bill of the cap essential in blocking the sun from getting in your eyes?

Discussion: I've got a man problem

I think I found the solution in tonight's double header opening game of the season. I started with a compression short, put on my cup and jock and then put another pair of compression shorts over the top of that. No chaffing and the cup finally felt secure. One little problem, with all these layers on I felt like a menu item from Taco Bell. Get your 4 layer Sausage stuffed burrito at my next game.

Discussion: I've got a man problem

I did a little more field reserch at practice last night. I tried the compression shorts with the cup pocket. No chaffing but the cup never seems like it's in the right place so I'm constantly adjusting it.

Discussion: I've got a man problem

I had practice tonight and tried one of ideas suggested here. I did the compression shorts with the traditional jock and cup over that. I didn't have any problem with the chaffing, the cup didn't feel real secure though. I kept having to pull it down to have 'coverage'.

Discussion: I've got a man problem

I wouldn't think of playing the infield without a cup but I get a terrible chaffing problem 'down there'. Any ideas on a comfortable jock/cup combination?

Is there a way to stay logged in between visits? It's kind of a PITA to have to log back in on every visit.

Discussion: Breaking in bats

Back to the subject. Breaking in is only something you do with composite bats, aluminum bats don't need to be broken in, right? I've heard something about bat rolling machines. Are those used for breaking in bats?

Discussion: Breaking in bats

What is happening to the bat during break in? It seems odd to me that a bat gets 'better' after it's been hit 100 times or so.

Discussion: What is a team bat?

I'm looking at the warranty for the Rip-It Senior and it says "bats that have been used by teams or associations' or "used for team batting practice" are not covered. If I let a teammate use my bat am I voiding the warranty?

Discussion: Ring tournaments--7 innings--1&1 count

I also dislike time limits on ball games. I started my dislike for them when I was coaching Pony League ball and dislike it now for playing softball. Both games are 7 inning games and you should be playing to win after 7 innings of ball have been played , not after 90 minutes (or whatever timelimit has been imposed).

Discussion: pulled leg muscles

Would soaking in a hot tub prior to a game help prevent muscle pulls?
