| Jan. 27, 2018 NYGNYY 198 posts | New Softball for 2018 Haven't heard any news on the availability of purchasing the "new softball" that will be using for 2018. Are they available and where can they be purchased? Thanks |
| Jan. 27, 2018 DaveDowell Men's 70 4093 posts | We're still on hold until the BSN port of entry into the U.S. receives them ... We're being told "soon", but it's currently on hold ... We'll post here when that status changes ... Anticipating the next question by someone: The T.O.C., being a 2017 Season event, will be using the 2017 ball specification of the BSN/Trump/Stote ... |
| Jan. 28, 2018 Bobby Buggs 90 posts | The new SSUSA Stote Microcell wont be in the country until early March. |
| Jan. 28, 2018 Jon44 Men's 55 149 posts | CRAP!!! I was really hoping the TOC would feature the new ball....Oh well, I guess I will get a chance to hit it in March in Mesquite |
| Jan. 29, 2018 NYGNYY 198 posts | Hi Dave---I just went to the BSN site and they have this ball listed...other than the name conventions is there any expected difference in play? Trump® MP-EVIL-ISA-Y Evil Sports 12 Inch Yellow Leather Cover (with Micro Cell Technology) ISA Softball 44/375. If they're comparable --I could get a dozen for practice prior to playing in St. George?? Thanks as always |
| Jan. 29, 2018 DaveDowell Men's 70 4093 posts | NY˛ ... I "think" it's the same ball, excepting as you mentioned, the identifying graphics ... There's no downside risk in getting a dozen, since it will certainly be close, if not identical ... Good luck! |
| Jan. 29, 2018 Bobby Buggs 90 posts | NY, yes the Evil ISA Microcell will be a great comparison. If you try getting them at evil sports.com and I can get you a discount code |
| Jan. 29, 2018 Tremor 15 posts | Finally, a ball that wont turn into mush in the dog days of summer |
| Jan. 30, 2018 DaveDowell Men's 70 4093 posts | Tremor ... Maybe next up should be an effort to find old ballplayers who's legs and arms don't turn to mush on those same hot dog day afternoons! ... It's amusing that the ball gets accused of being worse every year but, somehow, we don't deteriorate physically at all! |
| Jan. 30, 2018 Tremor 15 posts | DaveD...All the more reason to use a good ball. Mush bodies shouldn't have to hit mush balls lol |
| Jan. 30, 2018 DaveDowell Men's 70 4093 posts | Very true! ... |
