| Aug. 7, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Bats Discussion: Outcome of GSC Paco, Tomar77 said "God Bless the Victims may you find Peace and Forgiveness" and "To the Perpetrators may you be Dammed." You took it wrong. See you Saturday! |
| Aug. 6, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Birmingham tourney? PLEASE explain Brett, you know what they say, "you can't please everyone". I'm playing Wednesday and Thursday with a 65 team and now I am also playing Saturday and Sunday with a 55 team. Oh well! |
| July 17, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Rule Joke A few years ago we played in a tournament that was delayed by rain. When we resumed the base umpire told me that the baserunners, for safety reasons, didn't need to touch the bases, just be close. I then asked how close was close. He changed his mind and said runners must touch the bases. Lol |
| July 17, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Associations Discussion: SPA World tournament in Dalton .... team qualifications SPA should take a closer look at their methods of moving teams and players up and down. Their national tournament in Dalton has gone from one of the biggest to this year's disappointment. I attribute it partially to their administration (or lack) of their team and player rating system. |
| July 1, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Bats Discussion: Bat for an ASA 52/275 ball. I agree with neck10. Monsta has two models but you need to be prepared to pay! |
| July 1, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Playing on two teams of different age and different ratings The 55m and 50AAA have the same rating, 7. You should be able to play with the 50 team. |

| May 4, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: Still Looking for a Few Good Players? JT may want to check with Lighthouse. They lost Charlie Brown, probably for the season, after an injury in Valley, Al. Maybe I'll see you in Pensacola this weekend. |
| April 26, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Umpires- Pitching Rules The umpires we had at Valley were good and very consistent. I think the reason many complain about the flat pitch is we aren't used to it. A 6' pitch seems very flat, especially if the catcher catches it around his knees or waist. Those that throw it seem to try to stay between 5 and 10 feet. If you have two strikes you might want to be swinging at that "flat" pitch. |
| April 20, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: ACL Surgery Follow up I had ACL reconstruction 3 or 4 years ago. I couldn't play ball for about 8 months. I wore a Donjoy brace. I did 6 weeks of pt before surgery and then after surgery. I'm playing again and my legs feel better than ever. Good luck! |
| April 15, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Need your opinon....and ideas Yes Perl, the Atlanta area could probably field at least a couple of teams. Brett, ASA is showing signs of entering senior softball tournaments. They are looking at low fees as you mentioned. |
| April 14, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Who is going to Valley next weekend? Brett, I was told there will be 8 in the 55m division. We (Alpha Life) will be there. |
| April 11, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Players looking to join a team Discussion: Batting practice in Tampa You should check out the Woodlawn Hitting Club in St Pete. They hit Tues and Thurs at 8:00am. They have a website, http://woodlawnhittingclub.yuku.com/ |
| April 10, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Bats Discussion: Clean vs Dirty Clean for me. I keep a wet rag on the dugout fence and wipe it after every at bat if I throw the bat down. There is a teammate that doesn't like the tacky surface so he doesn't clean his. |
| April 2, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Replacements Best of luck on your rehab. Hope to see you this season! |
| April 1, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: You make the call What, I get no props for having the first correct answer??? |
| March 31, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: You make the call In my opinion I would call out, inning over. |
| March 31, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: SliAcademy Hitting Academies What a professional looking site! Best of luck to you. |
| March 29, 2017 BruceinGa | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Ball Exit Speed Testing and top Pro Speed Demos..Swing Makeover #52 Bogie, with my Swing Speed Radar and a balanced bat I was able to reach 93mph. It wasn't a swing that I would have used in a game, I was swinging out of my shoes!! I'm very happy with a speed somewhere in the 80's. I can't wait until Cocoa Beach to try yours again. |
