Discussion: Texas State Championship-2013

Capt Kirk ... Money talks ... It is my guess that which ever softball association is scheduling tournaments at the Houston Sportsplex, the association is receiving a large sum of money to hold it there.

Discussion: TOC

SSUSA Staff ... The topic was simply TOC ... I believe my comments were TOC-associated ... I think I even complimented Duke on his post ... Seems a bit of a stretch to think that you are now policing posts to this extent, although I did not see any posts after my second one.

Happy to see that AAA rules are now outs after 3 home runs ... Play where you belong or suffer some real consequences ... Thank you SSUSA.

Dave m ... Sounds like you need to find another past-time ... Board games?

Discussion: pitching screens

The thought of placing a screen on the playing field is ludicrous ... Hitting a screen placed on the playing field resulting in a DBO is folly ... Perhaps those who wish to play by these rules can start their own leagues/associations.

Discussion: Update from USSSA National Convention

Crusher ... I have hit pitchers, too, but never on purpose ... If a ball is coming off a bat to quickly, then perhaps something should be done there rather than placing a foreign object in the field of play and then making random rules governing the foreign object.

Crusher ... If you've been a pitcher for such a long time, and have only been hit once, and it was minor, why the need for a screen?

Why don't we play with 12, 13, 14 players? ... Enough to cover all the holes! ... That way, all the proverbial bases will be covered!!! ... Ridiculous!

Discussion: AAA Home Runs

Local ... Played against the team that won 60AAA in other tournaments ... Yes, they are a very good team without hitting a bunch of homers ... The team that played against them just ran out of gas and are a legitimate Major team ... If your team is averaging 6 hrs a game, you shouldn't be playing AAA, IMHO ... I have never seen a study indicating that anyone goes up the middle if they can't hit home runs.

Discussion: AAA Home Runs

5Tools ... It's not hard to determine sandbaggers ... For example, if you are playing AAA which allows 3 home runs, and your team is hitting 8, 9, 10 balls out of the park, there is a good chance your team is sandbagging ... See how easy that was?

Discussion: AAA Home Runs

Retired63 ... Couldn't agree with you more ... We played a AAA team in LV who hit 8 out and 6 more lasers off the wall ... There were a number of teams who were similar ... Too many sandbaggers ... Outs are the only way to actually penalize sandbagging teams, and make them at least think about moving up to the next level voluntarily ... Making them walks are a joke.

Discussion: THE NEED FOR SEVEN INNINGS

Gary19 ... There is little reason why we need to wait through, ball one, ball two, ball three, strike one, strike two ... It's slow pitch, for goodness sakes ... You're not going to sneak a fast ball, on the inside corner, knee high past a hitter ... Ever played in a one-pitch tournament? ... An incredible amount of fun ... 45 minute, 7 inning games ... Constant motion ... Love it!
