I am sorry to hear about your dad. I played against him mostly (filled in a couple of times on a team he did play for). I always enjoyed being on the same field as him. He was an excellent player and always fun to be around. My thoughts and prayers are also with you and your family

You could hand Conway a broom and he could hit like that but your right.... its who he is that makes him special

Think this bat might help me or is retirement the only answer?

Just saw your post.. I know you tried to be discreet in stating somehow that I managed to strike the posterior end of you spinal column in batting practice. I know you remember that it was about 10 years ago or so. You had arranged for a pre-plano Texas trip batting practice. You suggested that I work on "going the other way" occasionally rather than always trying to punish the third base coach or a runner at third knowing full well to me going the other way meant left center. The pitch you threw was outside..... knee high and left the bat ass-high and didn't slow down until it hit you. I believe it was the first pitch.. Seeing your teeth grind as you tried to accept my apology was entertaining but having you explain the the others at practice why I was hitting it up the middle in the first place was priceless. I will admit now that I felt terrible and had never before or since hit a pitcher.. Fortunately since the ball hit you in a spot that pretty much was fatty tissue all that resulted was a really sweet hemorrhage and your urge to strangle me..
Brought back a great memory... I believe you had a screen up but your tail end was so big it just stuck out to far...
as always... ntty

I have been looking at eyes for over 40 years and the worst injuries I have ever seen have been balls that hit eyes. Handballs, baseballs, softballs,tennis balls, ping pong balls,even balls from the pool table.
They fit right into that socket so nice and you can fracture the orbit, get a retinal detachment, retinal hemorrhage, a bleed between the lens and the cornea, dislocate the lens in the eye...all kinds of neat stuff. If the damage is just right, your sight can be gone for ever. Not to mention the potential head, nose, mouth injuries that are just waiting to happen. So... please wear a face mask...
As Jeff says... Have Fun, Be Safe
