| July 28 Fred Scerra Men's 80 542 posts | I joined the swinging Strike Out club today. First time had 0 and 2 count which is no problem with the player pitching. Next pitch was a nice waist high pitch and I just lost sight of it and swung and missed. Good part of day is I ended up 4 for 5 with 2 doubles with everything being hit hard on a line 50-60' high and about 150' distance. |

| Aug. 1 taits Men's 65 4548 posts | Fred, I think we all have done or will, do it: My motto was always to keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging. Hank Aaron |
| Aug. 1 CAT 200 posts | Sounds like Fred is a good Catholic boy with guilt written all over his face. I have learned that at my age of wisdom or just plain stubborness, I am not going to swing at a bad pitch and get into a bad habit. We all know how these umpires vary from game to game with their calls. I do not feel there is nothing wrong in a KO if the pitch was not there for the taking....I mean hitting.... |
| Aug. 1 DMac Men's 60 207 posts | I once had to take a lie detector test for a job. While he was setting up his equipment, the guy administering the test told me to relax, that there was nothing to be nervous about. I told him that I had 17 years of Catholic schooling and that some times I felt guilty when I hadn't even done anything. He wrote down on my file:"17 years of Catholic schooling". |
| Aug. 1 Fred Scerra Men's 80 542 posts | CAT: I wish I could use those reasons for an excuse but we use a strike mat/plate and I am known for the knowing the strike zone pretty good. The pitch was right down the heart of the plate just overt belt high. For some reason I just lost sight of it and missed it. |
| Aug. 1 taits Men's 65 4548 posts | Fred, Is that U trip. I used to play it, but don't see it any more in my neighborhood. Or at least don't hear about it. They may of called it modified. Good pitching game though. |
| Aug. 1 CAT 200 posts | Oh, the woos of Catholic bringing up.....No matter how old we are, it will always continue to stick with us. |
| Aug. 1 DMac Men's 60 207 posts | Don't let it wear you down, Cat. Once I accepted that I am probably not going to heaven, I found that there are very few tough decisions left in life. |
| Aug. 7 Fred Scerra Men's 80 542 posts | Tatis: No we play ASA with the 6-12' arc. |
| Aug. 7 taits Men's 65 4548 posts | Fred, yes. Most do In our area, but LVSSA it seems keeps going back and fourth. 6-10 also |
