| , May 2, 2017 curveball | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Roaster Assume you mean "roster." If a team forfeits a 1st game due to pregame injury or serious health problem and doesn't have enough to legally start a game; and, if they add to the roster with legal player so they can play and not be out entire tournament expense, what's the harm? If it's a tourney where a qualified roster is the rule (T.O.C., World Championship), that's a different kettle of fish. |
| , April 27, 2017 curveball | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Changing Format for 70 Year Old Division baseballbill Losers bracket is the nature of the beast, I wouldn't want it any other way. I'm also a 70's, and like the challenge presented with current format. I do understand your plight though, it is a mountain if you hit the losers bracket early. |

| , March 16, 2017 curveball | Topic: Bats Discussion: trump rocks norgenorth, disagree with you. I just put my new in the wrapper Rocks and Stotes on the postal scale, all the Stotes were lighter than all the Rocks. I had 12 Rocks at 6.4-6.55oz. 8 Stotes were 6.25-6.35oz. As a pitcher, I find no difference in accuracy, curve and screwball are the same, and I don't throw a knuckleball so can't comment. I would guess the lighter ball would be better for the knuckle, assuming the seams are the same height. |

| , March 10, 2017 curveball | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Surgery Mannjo, I had TURP in 2013. Your Dr. is being very safe with you. A month is very adequate, I was back playing in a couple of weeks. My procedure was in mid afternoon, went home the following afternoon. Took it real easy 1st day home and just rested, 2nd day up and about and fairly normal. After that, pretty much back to normal schedule only with greater flow. Did scare the heck out of myself quite awhile after recovery when I passed chunks of blood. My Doc said it was normal for quite awhile to have areas that are healing break off. I passed some blood occasionally for about 6 months. No pain, good to go fairly quickly. Good luck. |
| , March 10, 2017 curveball | Topic: Bats Discussion: trump rocks Cat, LVSSA/SSUSA Spring Worlds and the Masters Championship uses the X-ROCK-ISA-Y ball. We used the ASA Rock in Bullhead City this past week, I thought it was a good ball that held up well. (it wasn't overly hot, 70's, so no way to tell if it would be heat affected) |
| , Feb. 22, 2017 curveball | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Staying behind the pitching screen Boro, BJ is correct on it's a league thing. But, there are some very good senior leagues that allow the pitcher to pitch over the screen. Palm Springs for example, which is a fantastic and well organized league, allows over the screen, but pitcher must be behind the screen when ball contacts the bat. If you field the ball as a pitcher being outside the box when contact is made, it's a dead ball single. On the other hand, Las Vegas Senior Assoc. won't allow over the screen, and must pitch from the pitching hand side of the screen, and you don't have to be behind screen at all. Different leagues create different rules (or lack thereof). IMO, "IF" you are required to play with a screen, you should be required to use it for the reason it was placed in service. |
