Jan. 14, 2023 BruceinGa | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Mask requirement when using pitching screen Curve, personal responsibility. |
Jan. 12, 2023 BruceinGa | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Mask requirement when using pitching screen In our 45+ league here in Marietta, GA we use a screen. It is placed with in 18 inches of the rubber and we pitch around it. Masks are not required. We are also not required to stay behind the screens. I pitch and know which hitters to stay behind the screen and which ones I can venture out. :) |

June 21, 2022 BruceinGa | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Cataract Surgery I too had cataract surgery in both eyes about 18 months ago. I opted for the lenses which only correct far away vision. I still need readers. The surgery sharpened my distance vision and I would highly recommend it! |
Feb. 17, 2022 BruceinGa | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: You make the call Perl, same thing happened to me about a month ago. I was baserunner, catcher tagged me after crossing commitment line. There was no call to I tried to run home. The catcher blocked my way to the scoring plate as he was attempting to reach home plate. The umpire called me out. I contended that after he tagged me after crossing the commitment line the play should have been called dead. He disagreed with me. After the game the UIC said should have been dead. We won the game easily so no problem with us. Back to your question, umpire is correct. I believe SPA and SSUSA rules are the same. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.:) |

July 1, 2021 BruceinGa | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: 2021 Steve Simmons Memorial/Mosquitoland Classic It's my mistake, it was SPA's home run Derby at their nationals |
July 1, 2021 BruceinGa | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: 2021 Steve Simmons Memorial/Mosquitoland Classic Seeing this post made me think of Steve Simmons. I didn't know him well at all. In fact I only met him a couple of times. He and I were on the same 2 man team in SSUSA's home run Derby back when they had 2 persons teamS for the derby. We ended up winning and he was surprised that he was included since he didn't hit any. I had hit enough to cover both of us. He seemed like a great guy. Too bad he is no longer with us. |
Feb. 12, 2021 BruceinGa | Topic: Bats Discussion: Best 2021 bat for 70+ Seniors No Lefty, I'll be playing in a FHC tournament in Fl. RDSinNEOHIO, I would think there would be indoor facilities up north where one could perfect their swing. |
Feb. 9, 2021 BruceinGa | Topic: Bats Discussion: Best 2021 bat for 70+ Seniors Practice or I should say "perfect" practice. We are hitting today at noon, join us. |

Oct. 11, 2020 BruceinGa | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Ralph Adams This is happening far too often. Sorry for your loss. |
Sept. 15, 2020 BruceinGa | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Batting Corn, my suggestion would be to find a good hitter on your team or another that likes to take bp. While hitting, ask what he thinks you could do to improve, be it for power or base hitting. You can't expect to improve much if you don't practice. Another suggestion, get rid of the 25oz bat. :) |
