Discussion: Orange and white bases at first

I also pay 1B and I agree with DRB22. I have never remained on the bag if there was not a throw. Not only that, my foot is on the edge of the bag when receiving a throw, not on the top. The only way for my foot to be stepped on is if it is intentional.

Discussion: Batter pops up, doesn't run; defense lets ball drop to get a double play. Legal?

Don't know what the discussion is about. Dave quoted you the rule.

Discussion: Renewal of ID cards.

jimperry19. I could have worded it a little clearer, I guess. I meant to say that by covering 5 years it averages out to $3 per year. This is just one year of the 5. If you got your card when you entered the age group you have (or had) four more years you can (or could have) played. So even if you lose this full year does not mean you lose the total value of the card.

This is silly! The card covers 5 years. That would mean each year is worth $3! And people wonder why some seniors are seen as cheapskates! Oh, I forgot, you"re on a fixed budget.

One other thing about Yuma is that the average temp this time of year is 100. The last few days have been around 110.

News reoort last night just stated that COVID positives in Yuma have tripled in the past week and that the hospitals are full and patients are being sent elsewhere.

Discussion: WALMART

I don't know whether or not it is local or national, but our local Walmarts are price gouging. $6 for a gallon of milk that usually goes for $1.99.

Discussion: missed Infield fly call

The goal of every umpire should be to get the call right if at all possible. This is a correctable situation - so it should be corrected. There is no doubt one of the teams will disagree either through ignorance of the rule or in an attempt to gain an advantage - just as they do with any controversial call. But the umpires should acknowlege their error and correct the call. Failure to do so makes the game about them and puts their thumb on the scale. Rule 1.41 also allows for this situation.

Discussion: 100% quarantine, 30 days

thoseof you advocating for continuing to play...come on! this is just softball. COVID-19 has the potential to be life and death. Sure, most people will either not have symptoms or get better - but are you willing to take the chance that playing could cause even one death? Let's keep this in perspective and realize while it means you can't play the sport we all love for 60 days it is just softball. Don't be selfish.

WHOAA!!! That last comment was pretty snarky and totally uncalled for, Wayne.

Discussion: Texas State Championship Dallas

Not entirely true CJ. The Americans with Disability Act allows two questions: 1. Is the service animal required because of a disability?, and (2) What work or task has the animal been trained to perform?. They can legally deny entry if it is not certified for a legitimate function (i.e, is a "comfort, emotional support, or therapy" animal) or is not performing the function for which it is certified. Further, a service animal is not required to wear a vest, ID tag, patch or any specific harness; however, even a certified service animal must be on a leash, tether or harness unless these devices interfere with the service animal's work - in which case, the individual must maintain full control of the animal by voice, signal or other effective control at all times. Also, the ADA defines a service animal as only a dog or miniature horse (24-34 inches tall, 70-100 lbs). Many businesses are cracking down on people who are abusing the service animal intent. These people are, imo, very selfish and should not be tolerated! True service animals perform a very valuable service and can cost over $40,000 to train.

Discussion: Interference or incidental contact?

Wayne37...just a question, why does it seem whenever a rule discussion occurs that you are the sole dissenting opinion in opposition to all the other umpire's interpretation?

Discussion: Stepping out of the front of the box?

Rather than changing the game, why don't you adjust your approach? This is, after all, a "hitters game." It appears as if you are just trying to get one more advantage. And no, I'm not a pitcher.

Still hoping SSUSA will post the scores for the tournament - both sessions.
