    In State vs Out of State tuition

    DD is in the early stages of recruiting. She is interested in some out of state schools. It seems the tuition for out of state is generally around 3x the in state tuition. If a school from out of state recruits a player, do they tend to account for the extra $$? Or is there another way that the...

    Mizuno Bats

    Anyone use Mizuno bats? Anyone have feedback on them? It's one of the few I haven't done any research on. Top models and performance comparison to other top models would be appreciated.

    Aces Nation??

    Anyone have any knowledge or experiences with this organization? Our organization has apparently teamed up with them and are trying to make it mandatory for all of the teams to register. There is an annual fee. Thoughts? Acesnation.org

    Proud dad

    DD has always had a strong bat, but she took it to another level this weekend. She plays on a strong 12u team that's been playing 14u locally for awhile now. Anyway, she accomplished 2 things she hadn't done before. She had her first multi-homer game on Saturday hitting the ball out in her last...

    Looking for some camera help for recording games

    I'm looking to get a set up to be used mostly for recording softball games. DD's previous coach had a go pro set up with a lynkspyder mount and an extended battery that worked pretty well. I'd like to get a similar set up but am looking for advice on which Go Pro model works best for this...

    If your team could only play 1...

    Would you rather play the Usa Elite Select World Championships in KC, or the ASA Nationals in Salem, VA? This is for a 12u team. Which do you think will have the better competition this year?

    FS - Miken Freak Black (2015) 32/22

    Anyone interested in a good used condition MFB 32/22? DD likes the bat and it has as much pop as her 2Legit and new Demarini but she can only keep 2 bats so this one will be listed for sale. Figured I'd offer it to the forum before putting it on ebay. $110 shipped. I can take . Pics and send...

    What's your motivation?

    I'll start off by saying my daughter is 12years old (03' - 2021) with 1 year of eligibility in 12u remaining. She's been playing 14's for the past 6 months. We've recently gone through the experience of searching for the "right" team for my DD and feel lucky to have landed with her current team...

    Wwyd??

    DD is an 03' (12yo) who has been playing with an 02' team in 14u. We recently switched teams to checkout a team that is about 1.5hrs away. After a couple tournies, she has assumed the cleanup spot and is getting plenty of playing time even though shes the youngest on the team. Here's the...

    End cap problems

    My DD is currently swinging a 32/22 Miken Freak & a 32/22 2Legit. The end cap has previously popped off the Freak and was repaired by Miken to avoid using the warranty. Both bats are still under warranty. The problem we're having is that the end caps start noticeably separating with every swing...

    Need help finding a video

    Looking for a specific video of a guy giving a "motivational" speech to a baseball team. One thing I remember from it is that every time he tossed up a baseball, everyone had to clap in sync. Anyone?

    Decisions, decisions...

    Ok, so my DD has been using the Demarini Insane CF5 then CF6 for the past 1 1/2 years and has always loved them. She had been swinging a 31/21 until recently moving up to 32/22. I picked up a cheap used 32/22 LXT for her to try and she automatically liked it as well. Since she liked it so much...

    Kirsti Merritt (Florida)

    Had the pleasure of watching our USF Bulls face #1 ranked Florida yesterday. It was a great game despite the final score being 10-5 as USF was up 4-2 until UF dropped 8 on them in the final inning. Kirsti Merritt of UF had a monster day that I figured was worth mention. Before the USF game...

    First baseman rights to outside bag?

    When there are double bags at first base, is the first baseman required to use the inside bag, or can they use the outside bag for a force out as well?

    Scoring question

    Runner on 1B. Batter hits a hard grounder to 3B. 3B knocks it down and throws to 2nd base but the runner beats the throw and is safe. How is this scored for the batter?

    Another from this weekend

    Runners on 1st and 2nd with no outs. We are batting and a blooper/inbetweener is hit over the first basemans head and lands about 5ft into right field. On contact, the runner on first took a couple steps back to the bag which caused a slight interference with the first basemans ability to chase...

    Interesting scenario from this weekend

    Runners on 1st & 2nd base. DD hits a hard shot that hits the runner leading off of 1st base. Runner is called out with dead ball and DD is given 1st base. The question that came up was whether the runner on 2nd could advance to 3rd base, or if she had to return to 2nd? The ump let her stay at...

    Anyone else catch the sick Xeno / LXT prices on Amazon?

    Got a text today from another parent that Amazon had the 2015 Xeno's & LXT's for $59.99 - $69.99. I logged in to find the LXT's listed for $69.99 but none were available but there were plenty of Xeno's in all sizes at $59.99. Picked up a couple for DD. Never been a fan of the Xeno sound but for...
