| Sept. 5, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Courtesy Runner? Dave--this is not a runner replaced. I understand that, this is a courtesy runner for someone else, they then come to bat and get on...can they have a courtesy runner. Thanks D2 |
| Sept. 5, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Courtesy Runner? Same inning. If you run for someone else, then come to bat and get on. Can you have someone else run for you all with the courtesy runner rules? Thanks much appreciated. If the answer is no can you point me to the rule and section. |

| Aug. 7, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Pitching Rule Does the pitcher have to start with the ball being presented outside his or her glove? I don’t see this explained anywhere in the SSUSA rules. Thanks |
| June 23, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Baden Senior Softball This post has gone sideways. All I asked was if Baden was looking into a different skin for this softball. Before this ball was adopted by SSUSA there was a player who tested its performance etc. Once again all I am asking from Baden and SSUSA is there any future plans for improving it |
| June 21, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Baden Senior Softball I like the performance of this ball since its adoption by SSUSA. Is there going to be any chance for changes down the road? The cover gets very slick and dirty in a few innings. As noted above the performance is good, just asking for improvements on the cover. Thanks |
| May 11, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Courtesy Runner We have it happen in every tournament where someone gets pissed off if they’re asked to have a runner. It actually becomes more of a joke and we all wait to see how pissed off the person gets. If someone is faster than me and wants to run….God bless. If you’re ego is chasing you in your 60’s or 70’s might want to set your sights on bigger things. |
| April 29, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 2 Person Umpiring Position Playing in Vegas earlier this month we played a game with a 2 person umpiring crew. The field umpire with a runner on 1st took a position in front of second base. In between the pitcher and the base. I asked if he could move since I was at SS. He insisted on telling me how long he has umpired and that he would make sure he got out of the way. My issue wasn’t that he would get out of the way but rather it was just another body in the middle of the infield and still can understand why he had to stand there. In looking on the web for 2 person umpiring it shows the field umpire outside the dirt between 2nd and 1st. It also states that the umpire should always have the play in front of them. Anyone have thoughts as to the benefit standing in front of 2nd base? Thanks |
| April 19, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Batters Box Rule I agree with the rule however when there is no line where does it state that it’s a judgement call by the umpire in our rule? I believe there is something that states the batter can not intentionally remove the lined batters box but with no line what’s the call and why? Thanks |
| March 28, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: Bats Discussion: End Cap Thanks as always One last ? If it is an innocent repair can it still be used. Thanks again much appreciated |
| March 28, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: Bats Discussion: End Cap If an end cap comes off can you replace it or is it considered an altered bat? I can find what U trip states however I can’t find what SSUSA says. Thanks |
| Feb. 18, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Vote Outcome What was the vote outcome on 4GG vs. 5GG +$75? Thanks |
| Jan. 18, 2023 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 4 Game or 5 Game Guarantee?? It looks like all TOC’s are 4 game guarantees. Is that true? Was this mentioned beforehand on this board? Thanks. |
| Oct. 2, 2022 NYGNYY | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Winter World’s Field Locations Thanks D2 |
| Oct. 2, 2022 NYGNYY | Topic: Tournaments Discussion: Winter World’s Field Locations Will the WW field locations come out prior to the entry fee deadline so that hotel accommodations can be made? Just asking and I know that they are draft locations, nothing concrete. Thanks |
| Sept. 25, 2022 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Poor planning in vegas Played 65 M at Arroyo Grande this past Wednesday and I needed some water. Asked my wife who was keeping our book and she didn’t have any it was still at the car. Our home plate umpire gave me his water. Just thought that was outstanding and It was very much appreciated. Later I gave him a bottle from the car. Thanks |
| Sept. 16, 2022 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Hows the new ball performing at worlds Dave? Yankeesfan12 Ironic that you maybe a Yankee fan talking about small ball. I wish we could go back 30 years ago but that ship has sailed. Thus we’re in the year 2022 using senior bats and not wooden ones. I appreciate you bringing us back in time. Metal spikes, no home plate mats or scoring lines. Oh my! |
| Sept. 15, 2022 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Baden Balls D2 Glad to hear and you can always count on me. Are you going to share the bet with me if I see you next week? |
| Sept. 15, 2022 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Baden Balls Hopefully we hear great feedback about the ball today. Good luck to all |
| Sept. 3, 2022 NYGNYY | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: Baden Balls Doerbaum, thanks for sharing. How did you get your hands on that ball? Is there a site where they can be purchased or are you one of the manufacturer “tester’s”. |
