Dec. 3 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | Wow, I see that Men's and Women's 40's will play with a 1-1 count with NO fouls to waste. My question is, what was the reasoning behind the no foul to waste rule? |
Dec. 5 HAT MAN Men's 50 229 posts | they are testing this format to see what impact it has on time management. not an official rule yet. |
Dec. 5 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | Understood. But I can find no one except pitchers that want no foul to waste. That's how they play it in Bullhead City, and it sucks. |
Dec. 5 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | dbax......those are the ASA rules and have been for a couple of yrs now....we've been playing them and no one seems to bitch about....oh we also use the 52/300 ball with no complaints.....but hey we just want to play........ |
Dec. 5 400 Men's 50 90 posts | It only sucks if you hit foul balls! |
Dec. 5 Nancy Allen Men's 55 1438 posts | Since the parks here play Utrip, I know that even they eliminated the extra foul a couple of years ago. |
Dec. 5 FOFO Men's 60 284 posts | Hey Dave, NSA went from 4 ball 3 strike to 1-1 and fair only after 2 strikes a couple years back as well. Speeds up the game but cannot say I'm a big fan. |
Dec. 5 Dbax Men's 65 2101 posts | Didn't know those other associations went that way. Still sucks. |
Dec. 6 ffdonnie Men's 60 137 posts | YES! Long overdue. |
Dec. 6 crusher Men's 75 524 posts | I like a full count better than 1-1. However I hit the first pitch that is in any of my zones. The problem for me with 1-1 is a low pitch that hits the front of the plate, then I have to protect the plate. I like to unload on the ball and with 2 strikes that is difficult to do sometimes when protecting the plate. C |
Dec. 20 Pitcher22 Men's 50 39 posts | Correct me if I'm wrong but it's still underhand right ? Love 1-1 as a pitcher .... if this is such a problem play 5 man infield and 4 man outfield and just hit it off a T........ let's speed the game up lot of money for 5 inning games |
