    Skate on Sister School
Did not play in college.  Once in legion ball our coach told our pitcher to throw at a guy none of us liked.  So, he throws behind him twice and it's pretty apparent he's going to/has been trying to hit him.  I'm playing first and both teams are gearing up to fight.  The ump and second base are the only officials there and have no idea how to handle the situation.  Anyway, our pitcher finally hits him and his bench hits the mound before he does.  Silly SW KS white kid brawl ensues and we thought it was pretty bigtime.  Coach acted super mad but later bought us beers.  Actually, now that I think about it, this story could probably be told by any SW KS person. 

senior year of highschool a bunch of us who weren't quite good enough to be on the highschool team or just didn't want to got our own city league team and had a college friend (1 yr older) be our coach. there was a kid who spent summers in mhk that i didn't like. i pitched a decent amount, so when we played his team i went gunning for him. fastball not fast enough to hit him as he was able to duck and dodge and get out of the way every time. totally obvious though and during the at bat he mentions this to the son of local sports writer who happened to be the home plate ump. son does nothing. daris walks him and then preceeds to try and hit him on multiple pickoff attempts to first base, finally got him. did nothing but throw at his head and try and hit him every time he got up over multiple games. partied w/ the guy a few times at ksucats and all was forgiven.

Same year this guy I know had the game winning hit for the championship in that league.  His team had won like the previous 5 titles or something insane but this guy I know was all "meh, just another day at the office"

The picture of this great team now hangs in its sponsor's store.  If you like gifts that are all country'ie you can see it.

Generally teams with 4 consecutive championships don't win a 5th on a fluke, but whatevs.

    I don't mean to be stupid
Was the fast, center field type.  Hit a few homers, but mostly a gap hitter. (gap hitter is a funny term)  One time I was on deck and they walked one of our power dudes to pitch to me with the bases loaded.  They thought, hey lets pitch to the fast guy.  Big mistake, first pitch I smashed a homer to center field.  Felt pretty awesome.
