I'm going to try this again... who's interested?Probasesteal?
3/8/2007 11:15:51 AM
well if it doesn't work out we can just play some intense games of pickup baseball!how about a week from this upcoming Sat when everyone is back from spring break??
3/8/2007 11:17:36 AM
I'd be interested, as long as I don't have to workI got catcher equipment, though haven't used any of it (yet) short of the mitt[Edited on March 8, 2007 at 11:22 AM. Reason : .]
3/8/2007 11:18:59 AM
if my arm wasn't fucked up i'd love to play
3/8/2007 11:19:30 AM
Sounds good... week from Saturday. What field do you want to try Brooks?
3/8/2007 11:20:07 AM
not real sure where you guys practice but if you are having trouble, i would shoot an email or call the town of cary. i work with them part-time and i don't think all the fields are in use right now. you could probably try one of the Bond Park fields... i dont really remember which ones are adult-sized, but I think Fields 1 and 5 are the biggest. Field 5 is where Green Hope HS played their first couple of years before they had their own field. i would also maybe ask them about field time over at Thomas Brooks Park or Middle Creek Park. Those are very nice places and they may let you slide in there once a week.[Edited on March 8, 2007 at 11:23 AM. Reason : 12]
3/8/2007 11:22:18 AM
sounds good to me. I'd prefer a bigger field to the homerun slugfest we had last year at pullen.
3/8/2007 11:28:09 AM
yeah, the Bond parks are real nice, we should shoot for there... however we will probaly have to do afternoon since Little League MAY have started already
3/8/2007 12:59:20 PM
Anyone know of any co-ed leagues??? I'm DEFINITELY interested, as my other season doesn't start up back home til like May. I love softball! (and YES, I know this says BASEBALL)
3/8/2007 1:04:04 PM
Can you hit a 60-70 mph pitch?Come on out... forget the cup though.
3/8/2007 1:08:44 PM
west raleigh little league and some middle school teams are practicing on the bond fields from 5:30-9 most nights. i know they practice on atleast fields 5,6,7. 6 and 7 are too small anyways. adult softball starts within the next couple weeks and they will be practicing at Thomas Brooks and Middle Creek complexes, but i dont think they use all 4 fields at each place every night.[Edited on March 8, 2007 at 1:13 PM.

3/8/2007 1:12:41 PM
I'm going to be working a lot on Saturdays.
3/8/2007 1:15:28 PM
Ok...well will someone let me know when the softball stuff starts up??? I'm REALLLLY REALLLLY REALLLLY interested. And yes, I can. I used to play fast-pitch growing up. I can hit 75 mph pitches...NO PROBLEM! I might have some timing issues...as I've played slow pitch for the past couple of years...dah well. I still can though...that's why I like hittin' up the batting cage every now and then.[Edited on March 8, 2007 at 1:19 PM. Reason : .]
3/8/2007 1:18:55 PM
^ you hot?
3/8/2007 1:37:43 PM
^haha, ok, well i'll try to round some people up and you do that sameand that goes for everyone elsewe will decide a definite place in the near future...But Bond Park sounds good
3/8/2007 4:24:18 PM
So this is just for guys? Just baseball I'm assuming?
3/8/2007 4:55:46 PM
I wouldn't mind having a girl... but keep in mind it is baseball and you will probably be the only girl.Raleigh Parks & Rec does have co-ed softball leagues if you're interested in that.
3/8/2007 4:56:39 PM
^ True. I have checked Cary Parks and Rec but you must have a WHOLE team. I don't know enough people to get a WHOLE team up. They said they need at least 8 people on the roster and like a couple hundred at first...before the first game (which are normally Tuesdays and Thursdays). You said Raleigh has a co-ed team? Of course Cary has both co-ed and women's and men's individuals. I kind of just want a women's team, but co-ed or whatever would be fine.
3/8/2007 5:16:28 PM
I'd love to play
3/8/2007 5:18:25 PM
^ "What do you know? Quit pretending." LOL
3/8/2007 5:34:39 PM
OK, BASKETBALL IS OVER... IT'S BASEBALL TIMEWho's coming out?
3/11/2007 3:40:27 PM

3/11/2007 4:13:15 PM

3/11/2007 5:42:47 PM
apparantly, according to steve, I was 11-for-19 in that wood bat summer league, but my spreadsheet says I was 13-for-26.Also went 3-1 with a 1.28 ERA and 41 K, 3 BB in 28 InningsI'm down to play. I do play in a softball league on mondays and wednesdays though.if anyone wants to go to bond park next weekend and play homerun derby, let me know, ive got some guys interested.
3/11/2007 5:53:37 PM
Also, I've got helmets and and am willing to throw LIVE Bp to anyone who wants to hit. I'd like to throw 75-80 pitches
3/11/2007 5:54:44 PM
bump. who is playin ball this weekend?
3/15/2007 1:09:37 PM
I went out to Bond yesterday I agree its a very nice play to be playing...field 1 i believe looked the best, and field 3 close behindbut yea im down, dont have any balls up here to bring though but maybe i can work on that
3/15/2007 1:12:00 PM
I have 3 or 4 baseballs and some helmets. steve has some bats, for sure.
3/15/2007 1:18:38 PM
bttt for interest
4/4/2007 2:24:10 PM
I'm down for this since I didn't get a softball team together. It's been forever since I've swung a bat, so I would suck at batting (which I never was good at), but damn if I couldn't play some center field back in the day.
4/4/2007 3:16:07 PM
i want to play softball teams seem hard to find though
4/4/2007 9:20:43 PM
I would be down for some pickup baseballI got plenty of baseballs (~10) but no bat
4/4/2007 10:09:48 PM
i've got bats.
4/4/2007 10:17:19 PM
I am playing church league softball, its pretty fun.
4/4/2007 10:21:36 PM
bttt for a gamewe should get a game together for next weekend[Edited on April 5, 2007 at 9:22 AM. Reason : asdf]
4/5/2007 9:22:00 AM
^I'll play next weekend. I got a friend who will play, too.
4/5/2007 9:30:23 AM
Here's a list of who's playing. Add to it.The DudeMr E NigmaMr E Nigma's friend
4/5/2007 9:33:15 AM
When does the season start?? And if anyone is around this summer, I would definitely be up for some pick up or just to throw.
4/5/2007 12:06:11 PM

4/5/2007 1:38:12 PM

4/5/2007 2:57:43 PM
Here's a list of who's playing. Add to it.The DudeMr E NigmaMr E Nigma's friendJT3buckycbowncsumohebian#'sThis is for next weekend btw. Where is a good field we can play at?
4/5/2007 3:24:09 PM
i would suggest bond park, at the big field, on a sunday.
4/5/2007 3:27:32 PM
yea bond parkwent out there a few weeks ago, nice nice place to be...really pretty large place so shouldnt have to worry with the home run derby aspect.we prolly need about 11 people to be sure to even have 9 show up
4/5/2007 5:57:28 PM
It's fucking 380 down the line in Right... I'm not a big fan of dirt infields but yeah that field is nice... Good luck getting hits off of ^^ ... I was really good at one point in my life and I was lucky to get 3-4 solid knocks in 20-25 pitches against him.[Edited on April 5, 2007 at 6:04 PM. Reason : i think I had ONE good day]
4/5/2007 6:00:17 PM
^ in all fairness, you hadnt swung a bat in a long time, and I had been throwing a lot.
4/5/2007 9:36:43 PM
derek is washed up
4/5/2007 10:20:26 PM
