Out of curiosity, how many GoEMAWers play in the MHK Summer league? I play out there now and to be honest, I don't think I've seen many of you because all the people I see are not very attractive.

Haha.  RD has big strong man hands.  I bet they're all sausagey and hairy-knuckled.  Way to be proud of them.  It's not 1920.  They're rough ridin' useless for important modern day things like typing.  I bet you're all "oh, man I meant to type something other than my big old fingers typed."   :dunno:

i'd actually bet a dollar that my hands are dantiest/least manly hands of anyone posting in this thread. embarrasingly so.

I just happen to be able to grip a bat and swing it without the bat flying out of my hands for no rough ridin' reason at all. quite the skill I guess.

i wear a single batting glove because i don't want the bat to slip out of my hands and hit someone.  i wear it with basketball shorts, random 10k race t-shirt, football cleats, and no hat.

if you combined tball, baseball and softball i have probably played somewhere between 500 and a 1,000 games and have never worn and batting glove and have never had a bat fly out of my hand.

happened to me twice in less than 10 games.  that's an embarrassing rate.  it needed to be addressed.  congrats on taking your swing so seriously, though, bro.

chum- honest question... are you putting both hands on the bat when you swing it? bats really shouldn't fly like that if you're using both hands.

sometimes i let go with one hand.  sometimes i don't.  i'm sure i have an awful swing, but if course i don't take it seriously enough to know.  i can (or could) hit home runs.

I don't take it seriously normally but one time I was catcher and this dick kept throwing the bat back at me and the ump wouldnt do crap about it and I almost fought the dick just like a badger or pitbull.
If you would have fought him like you were a pitbull, how would you have done that? I would like to know what strategy you, as a pitbull, would employ if you were fighting a human with a bat.

I would fight him like an angry young professional AGAINST a badger or pitbull. The strategy I would employ follows the precedent set by King Kong V. T-Rex.  Also I would use the same strategy if I were a badger fighting a guy with a bat. I'm now sure what I would do if I were a pitbull fighting a guy with a bat as they haven't hands or powerful claws.
Thank you. I have updated my notes.

Sorry RD.  Mine are just regular.  Probably medium power.

Wearing baseball pants is a definite try hard move. My team has no uniforms, but does have the occasional theme night (hawaiian night, trailer park, etc.) and we focus more on drinking and less on fielding/hitting. Maybe this is why we can't break .500?

Huge games for AppleJack and his squad tonight. 1/2 game back and playing the 1st place team. Will likely give every inning updates. Chat?

The Sandusky Bear Hugs, featuring several goEMAWers, struggled mightily in the annual Marquette, KS softball tournament.  However, we drank way more and had way more fun than any other team!

Scored the winning run in my co-ed game tonight in the last inning.

This girl who was playing right field for the other team had to leave right at 8, so the other team pulled this girl out of the stand to go "stand in right field and hope no one hits the ball there." She was wearing flip flops so I just kind lobed it out there and ran to second. Then someone drove me in two batters later and the game was over.

There was a guy on the other team wearing baseball pants and batting gloves. He took a walk his first time up after taking a strike... What a douche. If its a strike, swing at the ball. Right??

Taking one pitch is acceptable if its in like in the dirt or some crap, but walking is wholly unacceptable.

I took 1 pitch this weekend:

I was walking up to the plate, doing my standard "Calling my shot" point to center.  The pitcher laughed and asked "where do you want it?" i said "absurdly high."

Ball 1, puppet.

I harassed the crap out of anyone who took a pitch that was anywhere close (my own team included). Definitely led the team in heckles from the outfield.

RPG (heh) is very good at harassing other teams to the point where his manager almost feels uncomfortable.
