    FLO Softball live coverage--DON"T

    I agree there's room for improvement but I thought they did a pretty good job with the tournament at Cal State Fullerton last weekend and considering it's the only place to see any of the games at Mary Nutter I think it's worth the price for the month. I will only be having it for a month though...

    Team USA roster released

    Looks to me like the key word this time around is versatility. I think everyone but Abbot and Cat can play multiple positions. Garcia and Ricketts can both hit for themselves and be used for pinch hitting. Also Ricketts has been practicing at first base. I think this hurts players like Lauren...

    Megan Kleist leaving Oregon

    I'm not surprised by the mass exodus from Oregon, most of those players were there to play for Mike White and his staff not necessarily a love for Oregon University. I'm sure if Tim Walton had left Florida for Texas the same thing would be happening there. What does surprise me is what's...

    Another Oregon player transfers

    Does anyone know when the last day is that someone can transfer to another team and still be eligible to play the 2019 season? I can't find this information anywhere online. Would that be an NCAA rule?

    Miranda Elish leaving Oregon. Transfering

    It's got to be Texas. She'd have to sit out a year if she transfers to another Pac 12 school. If she's leaving for a better chance to win a world series title there's not many schools outside of the Pac 12 for her to go to. Oklahoma or Florida, maybe another SEC team. Still Oregon probably has...

    IR and Bruxh in Japan

    I use this website to download videos from YouTube. Use at your own risk of course. I haven't had any problems with the site except for the occasional pop up add. https://y2mate.com/youtube-converter

    Ringor turfs

    Love Ringor! Got those exact shoes for my DD and a half size over normal was perfect. She did have an issue where the front of the sole started pulling away from the shoe after only a couple of uses. Contacted Ringor and the sent a new pair right away and let her keep the old pair so nothing to...

    Dugout Shade Options

    They make a 90% shade cloth too, I'm planning to put this up in my back yard for shade. http://a.co/4mKOslc

    Paige Lowary - Talk About Velocity!

    Could also have to do with where they pick up the pitch. The closer to the plate the ball is picked up the slower it will be compared to when it left the hand. I doubt there's any sort of rule in place from park to park. As an example of the speed difference from baseball, Nolan Ryan was...

    Game Video Storage

    Google photos will give you unlimited storage as long as the video is 1080p or below. It's also pretty easy to share with others and you can import them over to YouTube easily if you want to make some public later.

    16U TB Question

    Is there such a thing as a developmental 16U travel team or is everyone supposed to be at the top of their game by that age? When I look at a site like heybucket.com in the Southern California area, I only see the more elite teams looking for specific needs, is there another site to check? My...

    Quatro Pro

    Looks like some schools are getting them early. Saw a couple of players with them today.

    Interference or obstruction

    Just curious what the runner should have done here. Is there no protection at all for the runner in the running lane? Can she go around on the fair side or should she go further around on the foul side?

    Definition of a Season

    I'm curious if there's a standard way of defining a players experience. When I'm asked how many seasons my daughter has played I answer 2 because she's played for 2 years. I consider each spring season to be the official season and everything else practice. Sort of like a professional baseball...

    Twice while she was playing first

    Here's the rule from the ASA rule book. Rule 8 Section 2-N Parts 4 and 5 that deal with situations where the fielder may use the safety bag. My daughter loves playing first too and this situation has come up a few times so I looked up the rule for our association. It doesn't seem to be well...
