    Fastpitch exposure on Yahoo

    Saw this article on the Yahoo frontpage this morning. I'm not going to get into detail about how pitching a perfect game against a team that shows up in t-shirts is a momentous feat, as there are at least a dozen members here who's daughters always pitch perfect games. The point is that at...

    Any experience with the GoPro Hero cameras?

    Has anyone used a GoPro Hero3 camera for the purposes of slow motion filming in order to analyze athletic motion? I've seen some good videos out in the wild from the camera but I'm looking for more first hand experience. Thanks! -W

    I think that in baseball if the bases are loaded and a walk scores a run, it's counted as an RBI. This always seemed weird to me as it's not a run "batted" in, but I digress. Is it scored as an RBI in the book? Thanks! -W

    Making the transition from T to Gamespeed

    I'm curious if you guys and gals can help me out with this. My daughter has been seeing a hitting coach over the fall and winter and her swing has improved immensely. Her bat speed has nearly tripled and she hits the ball hard. She's able to make adjustments for direction, and while there is...

    Yellow logo on pitchers glove

    At an ASA tournament this weekend, I had a kid pitching with a black Wilson A2000 glove. The umpire told her that the glove was illegal because the W was yellow. I realize that having optic yellow on the glove is in the rulebook, but I've never heard it interpreted this way. I know that I...
