Discussion: Exit Velocity/Bat Speed

It's been a couple of years since I have used it. I seem to remember having trouble differentiating between the two. Sorry

Discussion: Exit Velocity/Bat Speed

I've had the Swing-speed radar. It was good to measure swing speed but not ball exit speed. ( maybe I didn't set it up properly :) )
I now have a pocket radar.
I find much better. I hear they now have a later version that works with your cell phone.
Maybe someone can expand on this.

You missed SSUSA's TOC.
You probably mean Spring Nationals.

Thank you Hank, that's very clear.

Discussion: Batters Box & Batting Position

Clarify something for me. I the batter takes his "initial stance", legally and then moves forward after the ball is released is he in violation?
The way that I read the rule he is within the rule.

Learn the difference between an illegal bat and an altered bat. It would add credibility to your post.

Thanks Webbie.
Swanky, bad rumor. I asked that very question last week. I was told not for 3 or 4 years.

The problem isn't with the bat, it with the cold hard balls.

Discussion: Pitching Rule

The rule is somewhat misleading. Rule says ball in front of body. I guess it can be inside of glove.
I don't think I've ever seen a pitcher called on this, or even the one second pause.

I had a problem with mud by the first base dugout created by a sprinkler head. I asked the base umpire if we could correct it and between innings the grounds crew fixed it.
Great tournament!!
