It is called a mound

Depends on whether the pitcher is nuts.

Then the Mounds becomes an Almond Joy.

A circle? Y'all are too funny... Maybe one game game a season... I generally line a ellipse out there... stupid nail never stays in the ground.

Yeah, what's this "circle" you're all talking about. Do you mean the area that's approximately 43 feet from home plate, depending on how carefully I measured that day?

I have always called it a Princess Circle. The area in front of the rubber is the Diva Ditch.

Perfect!!!! Still laughing...

I've said it before and I will say it again. If Sue Enquist calls it a mound, its a mound. I know some here will look at her 10+ national championships in various capacities and her won loss record as a player and a coach and say. What has she done lately.

Well when a HOFer speaks about the game, we should listen. 2:30 on this video, although I recommend you watch the whole thing. In fact find the other 4 videos from that day and watch them all.

I love this thread!!

Ill allow people to call if a mound if they'll stop calling runs points and start saying the higher score first.

I prefer "on the hill". More old school I think.

Did we score a point that inning?
