| May 14, 2015 DonnieSmith | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 5 runs or 11 fielders Excellent Topic. I have always believed that "Offense" wins games, but "Defense" wins championships. As a player on a Major Plus team, we have found it a bit more difficult to get the ball through a five man infield or split a gap with four outfielders. The 11 man defense can wear down a great hitters confidence........for the most part. And it really helps the underdog team if they have a good hitting team. My experience comes from giving the other team the option.....and we will win more games spotting runs than giving the other team an extra fielder. Holding teams to 0, 1 or 2 runs in an inning can really take the wind out of their sails when you have that extra defender. The flip side of taking the five runs is almost pointless if your team cannot put up 4 or 5 runs an inning. Defense will always prevail.....in my humble opinion. |
| May 14, 2015 DonnieSmith | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Men 40 Major Plus -Reno Just wanted to say on behalf of our KRAZE team that we are looking forward to playing in a top quality tourney with 7 great squads. Love the fact that we will be facing some of the best teams from Nor Cal and Reno as we make our way up there from So Cal. Always great battles, great players, and great rivalries. Best of luck to you all. |
