Discussion: AAA Home Run Outs

SSUSA changed the home run rule by gauging vegas, SSUSA changed the ball used in vegas from the trump stote that has been used for a long time,to the evil rock ball which is a hotter ball. plus the fences at the field of dreams complex is under 300 feet,add this together it give a false reading on how teams hit home runs from the year before

LeeLee as i posted above it was the change in the ball is why so many home runs were hit, i hope this is a one time deal with the evil rock ball its to hot of a ball to use senior bats with

Discussion: Grading the Rule Changes

I Think one important reason was over looked, SSUSA said there were a more than normal home runs hit in the vegas world tournament. SSUSA changed from the stote trump ball to the evil rock ball which is hotter that the stote,we have banned it from our league play and i have spoken with teams in other parts of the country that have banned it also. So the amount of home runs hit it vegas was not with ball hit with in most tournament. So everything is misleading on the home run totals.

Discussion: Toys for Tots

this past weekend we held a toys for tots softball tournament in corpus christi texas. had 7 60s and 3 50+ teams. they donated 240 + toys and $50 cash a local fire truck came and picked up the toys,it was a great weekend for the old guys and for the kids. we used a differant ball it was a rubber ball so everyone was on an even basis.the 60's winner was the Sharks a local team,and the 50 + winner was ole skool from san antonio, thanks to all. this was called the world mushball tournament, thus no home runs were hit.oh yeah this also was a ring option tournament

Discussion: Update from USSSA National Convention

we dont play u-trip dought if we ever will. if everyone wants a screen for the pitcher, which i wouldnt want, why not just play with a rubber coated softball if your afraid of the regular ball.

Discussion: Why so few AA teams

I think because of most of the teams play locally in there home stae, that is all that SSUSA or others have to rely on for a rating . But since the other teams that you play may not be as high of caliber as when you get to the worlds, you really dont know what you have as far as a rating goes. And gary19 is a Jerk for all of his comments.

Discussion: The way softball was played back when:

#6 you can slide at all the bases in SSUSA rule changed this year,i wish the comittment line was at least half way up the third base line,for now its at 20'from home if a player runs to that line hes not going to run 45'back to third.and as a pitcher i like the mat.heck some of the umps in Texas have a hard enough time with the heighth let alone trying to call the depth of the ball without a mat.

Discussion: Looking for a few for the 2013 season

#6 we lost roberto---mike johnson---don hodges---juanito---steve s.----mike carter---maybe maddog.so that leaves us 6 players and have to build from there. we didnt play well our last two bracket games so i guess they think they can switch teams and maybe play better we will see. i just know we will beat them when we see then next year. should make for a good grudge match.

Discussion: Mercy Rule,

one problem i see rightrj1 is that you could not have been down 27 runs going into the 5th inning, since you can only score 5 runs pre inning the most the score could be is 15 to zero.

Thanks for the info guys, that is the main reason that my 60aaa team didnt go there , i dont like to spend our money and play against major teams.my thinking is you dont put a major team in its own age bracket, thats why there are seperate divisions.
