    Travelpro Crew on sale

    If you watch pilots and flight attendants in an airport, they are all pulling the same black suitcases. They are Travelpro Crew bags. My wife and I travel quite a bit for work and eventually softball. Years ago I got really tired of disposable luggage and I bought an Travelpro Crew 22” two...

    College 3rd Paid Assistant

    One of the most interesting college softball developments this summer is seeing what schools are doing with the newly created 3rd paid assistant positions. Jake Epstein To South Carolina. There was talk of Ehren Earlywine (former Mizzou coach) going there but Epstein got the nod. Great hire...

    Different Club Baseball Model

    I was initially turned off by his comments about charging more. He has some really good ideas though. I salute his stance on not playing weekend tournaments.

    THE BATS ARE TOO HOT!!!

    MLB has to do something about these bats. This was an Easton Ghost Maple I bet.

    Things College Softball Announcers Can Quit Saying 2022 Edition

    So by now most of us have watched some televised softball. What things can college announcers quit saying? What are you tired of hearing? What do you really like? For me: I never, ever have to hear any version of pitchers “issuing free passes”. I could not care less what position any player...

    Short story about breaking bats

    DD’s college team played an away “tournament” last weekend. When they travel, they do most of their warmups with game bats- they don’t haul both game bats and practice bats on the plane. They must take some practice bats but not all of them. This is a Louisville/Wilson school. Anyway in the...

    Help a buddy’s son with his swing

    No, I did not know who this dude was. Yes, I assumed he was good. People, be careful who you take advice from. More than one bozo gave Matt Lisle advice about what Mike Trout was doing wrong.

    6-4-3 Charts. Does what you think happens really happen?

    I invite you to check out 6-4-3 Charts on Twitter. DD’s 10 u coach who was 70something year old engineer was the best coach either of my daughters ever had. One of the many smart things he said/did: “Stats help me to know if what I think is happening is really what is happening.” He kept two...

    Tennessee Vols

    Anybody else see Tennessee vs Kentucky last night? Tennessee put it on them. 10 runs in the rain, idk how many hr’s. They dropped 20 runs on Louisville earlier this fall. What is the difference? Having a great hitting coach. Chris Malveaux is really good. One thing I noticed was how...

    My big folder of Bat Receipts

    Today DD#2 broke her second LXT since coming home in June from college. The first one was her school practice bat, barrel has had "The Spins" for awhile and today she was having trouble with the grip. So instead of stopping what we were doing, I ran into the house and grabbed an identical 2020...

    Sometimes it is the org head that hissy quits! Attached below is the email sent out by an org head disbanding a team dd was on last summer.
