Back in my softball days mid late 90's we played in a tournament conference about every weekend, and played in leagues at least 6 nights a week for years, but the home run rules messed with the game, but we played Steele's one year and I have never seen anything like it, they would line up on 3rd base line so it would be easy to slap five to the one that just hit it out, they killed us 54-11 it was not fun at all,

[@JJ-io2nz]

so much hate in here! Slow pitch is much trickier than most think. I've played baseball my whole life on many levels and I always thought the same thing until I started playing it. It's a much different swing and timing at the plate for starters. Not to mention if you have a pitcher that can really get some rotation on the ball. Then you got fielding yet. I was a catcher who converted to 3rd base for slow pitch. After my first game at 3rd it changed my whole perspective about softball. When you have a bigger guy who's been hitting their whole being able to just tee up and rail the ball at you its no joke. I'd love to see those who say otherwise to stand there and let someone like Bubba Mack rope line drives at you!! I'm not afraid to admit I wear a face mask. The pitcher from my team wishes he was wearing one when he had to get plastic surgery from take a shot off of the face. Those being ignorant just haven't stepped out and see what this SPORT is about!! #BavarianLeague

[@lacrossemaster31]

I feel yeah man!! I played baseball for 5 years of my life and hitting a baseball was nothing new to me and throughout my whole life after baseball, i still had a pretty good timing of hitting an object that was thrown at me. when i first played slow pitch softball, GOOOOD DAMN was it an eye opening experience. Between relearning how to hit the ball, how to field it, and relearning the timing about the whole game truly changed my perspective and now im a full blown addict of slow pitch. I was a catcher who turned first baseman who turned second baseman who turned left fielder. Now im an all star left fielder/right center fielder. It truly takes some skill to be able to crank home runs each and every at bat.

Carl Rose 1 handed grip gives you an extra 2 inches of bat length from 34" to 36". I switched my grip in 1991 when playing with Carl Rose in league play. He gave me one of his bats. I also reduced my bat weight to 28ounce. Made all the difference in my home run power and distance.

These guys are losers. They get roided up and just hit bombs. It's a joke.

[@strikeeagle6871]

@@darklordojeda it all started when the USSA decided to use red dot balls ! By the third inning they were lopsided and mush. So in steps the bat companies and they created these multiple alloy bats that would compress like a slingshot and magically 160 pound players started hitting the ball out . $300-$500 bats and some teams we played were sponsored by Easton bats and in tournaments they unwrapped 5-6 new bats just for tournaments ! I pitched for 15 years and it got very dangerous toward the end of my playing days in the mid 2000's . We played in a dozen state tournaments in Pa at Drifton softball complex and they changed the rules every damn year because of the bats and roofed up animals . I played legion baseball, Fast pitch and slow pitch and I loved slow pitch the best because it was action personified ! They ruined it when they allowed Demarini and others to destroy a great game !

If it can't why why would the catcher not stand in front of the PU during the pitch ?
