I play here in Rochester mondays and fridays. Our team has no sponsor...I wish we did though! Our team name is The Misfitz since we dont really fit the "norm" \:\)

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...

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

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 grin.gif

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

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!! grin.gif

Just kidding -- That is good story...would of like to been there to see that one happen!!

Thanks for sharing -- only a month away now and we will be playing!!

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
