| July 20, 2009 jah#4 Men's 70 576 posts | SPA HOME RUN DERBY some of the elite player of senior softball put on a show at the SPA National tourney hitting in the derby. Jack Aronson of Gekle builder hit til his hands bleed and some more of the 50 young guns hit some in the 375- 400 range. In the 55's one of my old buddy for sportplex Tony Vodola Hit 7 out of 7 for that title Gary Denton came in second. But the Show of the event was another of my buds EINSTEIN Joe came in second because of a hittoff and he had already pitched to over half of the hitter and cheered everone else on every Homerun hit. But Pete Imlay {hope that spelling right} Bruce Fairchild came in third We had some great fun in a very good tournament Don Ward Kittrell softball |

You could also have a pitching contest a la throwing balls into a garbage can from 50', 55', 60' and second base that would be attractive and simple to execute, too. |
