CNY Tim Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 We don't start until June here in central New York, but I play Tuesday and tourneys through out the season and only have a 1 night a week league and that team is LaPub/The Garage, regular season champs 2007. Were going over the roster already, many changes and more of our tournament guys to keep some consistency. I'll be 44 in Jun and still love playing... Alot of leagues are going aluminum only here, composites will be a 90% no-no in the stae this year and all I can say is, "It's about time!" I will continue as an ASA Umpire, enjoyed that last year in my first full season and can honestly say that I blew two calls all season, not bad when you figure I did over 800 innings..Can't wait to get started back playing.. Let's have those bat lists...05 Demarini F2O7 Stealth SST6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrappieFshr651 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Is there anybody in the Farmington, Lakeville, Rosemount, Apple Valley area that is looking for another player for their team. Ive played outfield for the last 3 years in south st. paul and bloomington. I recently moved to farmington and looking to get on a team. I'd be willing to do a tryout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see another "Blue" on the forums. You may have only "blown" 2, but I can't believe you didn't miss more than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY Tim Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Coach those are blatant misses, you know when you wiff so bad and you feel embarassed, you want to reverse the call. I remember them both, one was a backside tag coming to third from the outfield that I was late getting too. And the second was a call at first base on a routine groundball, the runner was a step and a half past the bag... They laughed it off fortunately.. Thank God I knew some of the guys on that team, they realized 30 min. prior to the game I just dropped my son Tyler off to become a U.S. Marine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach1310 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Yeah, I know what that is like. Its too bad you can't wait like 10 seconds on calls like that because after they replay in your head 5 times, you know what call you should make! My worst ever is... bottom of the 7th, 2 outs, bases loaded, tie game. It is a co-ed league and a woman is up to bat. She hits a rather meaningless soft grounder down the third base line. She had done it every at bat previously and it is about 10 feet foul, when I call it "Foul ball"... well in proceeds to hit a foothole, hop straight toward the bag, clip the corner of the bag, popping it in to left field. I had already called it dead, so no going back. Took away the game winning hit. They eventually lost in extra innings. I walked backwards to the car that night!!

Caesarfishinguytoo Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Hey Coach, That was my wife you took that hit away from...her only hit of the season which ended up being her career...that's right you took away her one and only lifetime hit...She is still mad about that one and talks about it often!!Just kidding -- That is good story...would of like to been there to see that one happen!!
