| Sept. 7, 2023 Enviro-Vac | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Definition of "moderate speed" of a pitch The question posed by BillC48 is a good one. Since the pitching distance option has increased the speed of the pitched ball can also increase allowing a good pitcher to impact the game with a bigger verity of pitching e.g. a good curve ball can be very effective with the 1/1 count. |
| Aug. 14, 2023 Enviro-Vac | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: What's the Call? Did the ball at any point hit the ground before or during it's ricochet to the 2nd base person? |
| July 23, 2023 Enviro-Vac | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Western Nationals Schedule A small error on the men's 70 platinum schedule of no consequence but for clarification purposes. The championship bracket should probably say: Wed./Thursday. Do the players dugouts have a sun screen at the Sacramento complex? |
| July 17, 2023 Enviro-Vac | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Jim Sherman last weekend Agree with your comments. One of my favorite locations to play at as Wallace Marine has that "old school feel" being in the middle of a park. |

| Jan. 15, 2023 Enviro-Vac | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: National Rules Voting Is there further clarification available on rule change No. 6, specifically as it relates to M+ team who may play in a M division due to lack of M+ teams? 6. Major Plus player boundaries Motion to allow Major Plus teams (aged 40+ through 70+) to have two players from the opposite side of the Mississippi River from their home state without giving an equalizer (and being required to compete as an Open Division team). MOTION PASSED: 6-5 (1 abstaining) |

| July 19, 2022 Enviro-Vac | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Jim Sherman Memorial last weekend Salem OR I could not agree more, good post! Wallace Marine Park has always been one of favorites. For us, it is unfortunate that this tournament and the Western Nationals are so close together. |
| June 8, 2022 Enviro-Vac | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Balls being used in Nor Cal Championships I thought the Worth ball used in Reno was fine but we did not see 100* heat. I believe it got into the 80s in Reno and at that Temp. the ball hit well. |
| May 21, 2022 Enviro-Vac | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Rock'N Reno Batting Practice Thanks. The information is appreciated. |
| May 19, 2022 Enviro-Vac | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Rock'N Reno Batting Practice Reno Batting Practice – we have not played in Reno in a couple of years. Have batting practice field use rules changed? Any special rules or fields applicable? |
| March 26, 2022 Enviro-Vac | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Batting out of order Could the runner not be replaced by a substitute player who is on the official lineup card but has not yet entered the game - if available? |
| Dec. 10, 2021 Enviro-Vac | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 3 Game Guarantee v.s Double Elimination Bracket Our team would take and prefer the 3 game RR with a double KO over current configurations. |

| Sept. 16, 2021 Enviro-Vac | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: More on Major Plus DD and Webbie25, I think you are benefiting everyone in senior softball by keeping this thread alive to prompt more thought. To answer your query of what I would suggest Webbie25, I believe DD made a good suggestion on Aug. 27/21, “If you truly want a strong, healthy major plus division, it might be the right time to encourage some of the best players in the older divisions to spread the wealth. Start new teams”. I also am somewhat aligned in thought with the two messages in Doaks’ August 13/21 post on this subject, one by Tat22 and the other by Baseballbill, referenced below: Tat22 …”I know one change I would like to see. When a team is bumped to Major+ make it for one year instead of two. A lot of times when a team gets bumped they are on the verge of going up in age classification, or half of the team can go up in age and the other half can't leaving the "younger" players in limbo for the next year and the burden of finding a team that will pick them up and automatically be at the plus level due to the number of players to be picked up. I think making the plus tag apply for only one year would benefit a great number of players.” Baseballbill …”Senior Softball protects all age/class divisions by moving a team up in class when winning the worlds except for Major Plus teams. In the 2019 annual meeting it was proposed that when a Major Plus team wins there age division, they get moved to the next lower major Plus age division (65 to 60) so they also move up in class. For whatever reason, it was voted down. This option to me makes sense and will stop a Major Plus team from dominating a division.” |
| Sept. 7, 2021 Enviro-Vac | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Can a player run for another one twice in one inning? Great post on Sept. 1 MurrayW, good sense of humor! |
| Aug. 31, 2021 Enviro-Vac | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Can a player run for another one twice in one inning? DD that four word rule change you suggest makes no sense to me. If player A is a Sub. and has not played but is on the lineup card so as to make him/her available as a CR and runs for player B as a CR, and scores, then subsequently and in the same inning player C gets hurt and is unable to run why would player A who was legally substituted in, not be able to run for self? |
| Aug. 28, 2021 Enviro-Vac | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: More on Major Plus That’s a really well thought out analysis and proposition DD |
