Nov. 7, 2012 stattad | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Roommate needed in Phoenix Looking for a roommate on Sunday, Nov. 18 ONLY. Evidently I'm the only player staying over from the weekend. Would like to share the $90 cost at the Residence Inn. Maybe someone else wants to stay an extra day and is flying home on Monday. stattad@hotmail.com |

Oct. 22, 2012 stattad | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: LV World Tournament Discussion I would love to see 11 fielders all the time (not 12, 13, or 14!). I think anything that would bring batting averages down along with runs would be great. Runs are not PRECIOUS in softball; OUTS are. That's why a lot of teams count sacrifice flies as a time at bat. It almost always favors the defense. |
Oct. 15, 2012 stattad | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: LV World Tournament Discussion I agree that we need a 3-game seed. As for the calculating of the tie-breakers for seeding purposes, I gave Terry H. a simple Excel program that will calculate it in seconds. The problem is that Dave may be the only TD that owns a laptop. |
Aug. 29, 2012 stattad | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Tanel 360 Top Gun IV - San Clemente I guess our team (the Silver Sox) played both of the 5 inning games in the 65-70 division, because we had 2 of those, 4 six-inning games and only 1 seven-inning game. Doesn't seem long enough to me, either. |
June 28, 2012 stattad | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Slowpitch, US National team vs US Futures team on ESPN2 at 8:00pm or ES2HD Slopitch is on ESPN2 every night through July 2. Here's the schedule: http://www.usasoftball.com/news.asp?action=display&uid=6969 |
June 6, 2012 stattad | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: On Base Percentage (OBP) The only problem with this discussion is that reaching on an error doesn't count as being "on base" (at least in baseball scorekeeping). Errors are mostly luck, sometimes because of speed. Also, a walk has never moved a runner from 1st to 3rd like a hit does. |
Dec. 18, 2011 stattad | Topic: Bats Discussion: Miken Psyco vs Easton Salvo. How are the bat rules going to change in 2013? |
Dec. 5, 2011 stattad | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: SSUSA RULES COMMITTEE 2011 AGENDA SYNOPSIS I would sure love to see the base distance changed from 65' to 70'. It would lower the high scores we currently have and would put much more emphasis on defense! |
Oct. 7, 2011 stattad | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Feedback on this idea? I definitely agree. When we won the winner's bracket in Laughlin this year we lost the flip for the championship game. We lost that game and lost the flip in the if game as well. Luckily we won that one to win it. R&R 60s |
Sept. 1, 2011 stattad | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: mandatory move ups.... I think the key is the number of teams. Someone winning a tournament with 6 teams isn't that big of a deal. After all, SOMEONE has to win it no matter how good the teams are. |
July 22, 2011 stattad | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 60 major plus According to the ratings there are four. |
June 8, 2011 stattad | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Out or no out after injury? Thanks for that. I think in our game another player substituted, so there would be no out, but in the 65 AAA game they must have just reduced the batting order. |
June 7, 2011 stattad | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Out or no out after injury? In the 65 AAA division in Reno there was a bad injury that sent a player to the hospital. The umpire forced that team to take an out when the departed player's spot in the lineup came up. In the 60 AAA division in Reno, a LF dislocated a finger and came out of the game, and the umpire said they didn't have to take an out because of a recent rule change. Who was right? |
March 9, 2011 stattad | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Tournaments for 2011 I'm sure it's just down for now. Says it was changed on 3/9, so they're probably working on the page as I type. |

Oct. 28, 2010 stattad | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: How many are going to the So Cal Championships? 60 Basehawgs are going. |
Oct. 26, 2010 stattad | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Can we make this a PHX Worlds Score thread?? Post results here Way to go Andy...quite an accomplishment for a team that was put together last year! |
July 23, 2010 stattad | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Time Limits I'm not sure about the 1 & 1 count. The games I have played in seem to have a lot more walks. The games might even take longer! |
