of course not

but i was saying when we start doing live practices, i may be a little wild

6/20/2006 3:42:13 AM

You hit me and I'll charge that mothafuckin mound!

6/20/2006 8:50:33 AM

Let me know when you guys are going to play since I'm not on the email list (though I'm moving to Cali in 2 weeks I'd like to play some here before that since I'm in a league out there)... I usually go running at Bond Park and most nights after work there is nothing on the fields going on this time of year..

6/20/2006 12:50:02 PM

^ ... ? yesthere is

for instance there are 2 games tonight 6 and 8 pm on both fields

6/20/2006 1:35:42 PM

^what about tomorrow night?

we were planning on going out there tomorrow evening, i guess we could earlier.. but then not all of us could come

6/20/2006 7:37:23 PM

i have a work softball game tomorrow

I gave away my 3rd row dmb tix b/c we were gonna have to forfeit

6/20/2006 8:44:05 PM

^^^ I was there at like 6 and the softball fields were empty but the baseball ones weren't... can at least take light BP and field and stuff..

light bp on a field that's 150 down the line ? I guess.

6/20/2006 10:23:40 PM

Hey. I'd be interested in joining. I can play first, second, third, or outfield. lemme know asap please.

6/20/2006 10:23:41 PM

ther'es no pony league games scheduled tomorrow. but I'm not sure about the 12-13's they could. easiest thing is to just call town of cary around 3 and then post here about that night.

6/20/2006 10:26:16 PM

^^ pm'd you.

6/21/2006 8:48:15 AM

i'm sure there is a fee involved in reserving the fields... at least that is how they work in Raleigh.. but Cary is made of money, so maybe not... ha

6/21/2006 10:12:49 AM

I dont think there is a fee. I believe you can just call up and reserve. well I was able to but I was part of a rec team so that could be different. I know if you go there and the fields are empty and not painted they're free game.

6/21/2006 10:21:55 AM

i'll call this afternoon and find out

6/21/2006 10:24:34 AM

Eh?? The softball fields are much longer then that. There is one area where there are 3 softball fields around that one parking lot (I want to say all the way to the left) and they are... I think... 290 all the way around.. not huge but very, very well maintained..

^ post on here if you find out.. I'll play tonight if you guys do..

[Edited on June 21, 2006 at 10:34 AM. Reason : x]

6/21/2006 10:34:06 AM

so it looks like there would only be 2 or 3 of us tonight...

I think i will ride over there in a bit and check the fields out

See you all Saturday...

6/21/2006 2:35:53 PM

Go or no go?

V they have one that is a as well maintained as any high school field with a perfect mound.. just gotta see if there is no game tonight.

** I need to know soon because if not I'm gonna go down there and do my usual running and stuff..

[Edited on June 21, 2006 at 4:36 PM. Reason : x]

6/21/2006 4:32:50 PM

a field with an actual pitchers mound would be awesome

6/21/2006 4:34:33 PM

no go, ^^it would just be me and you

6/21/2006 5:26:39 PM

most of the fields have pitchers mounds.

6/21/2006 8:04:24 PM

but no hill

6/21/2006 8:31:11 PM

For bats you guys should find the Wood-Aluminum ones. The barrel is wooden and the handle is aluminum. I coach middle school baseball and I ordered some of these for my kids. I think that this helped them stay in on the ball better, since they had to swing through it to get some pop. I don't have a site for it, but I'm sure someone could find it.

6/21/2006 10:52:51 PM

^^ .... what ? both of the pony league. and the one "senior" league fields have mounds. they have a hill or what not.

6/21/2006 10:54:20 PM

the ones at bond park, well at least the last time i was there, were non-existent

6/22/2006 12:08:33 AM

The big one has a very nice hill.. as I said, I thought it was better then some of the local high schools.. if the infield wasn't all dirt I'd put the field nicer then any...

6/22/2006 8:56:50 AM

^ you wanna go out there and throw this weekend?

6/22/2006 9:35:12 AM

alright, i think we are going to try for

Sat Pullen Park @ 11

and

Sun Bond Park @ 11


Anyone want on the mailing list, post your addy here and/or PM me

6/22/2006 4:07:06 PM

boobs. UI'm there 2-3 times a week. both of the little league fields have a mound. and the big field has a rather nice one.

6/22/2006 4:08:10 PM

^^^ Yeah, I'll throw.

^^ I'll be out Sunday but can't make it Saturday.

6/22/2006 4:10:25 PM

as soon as my glove comes in I'll be ready to helpout

6/22/2006 4:55:03 PM

^got an extra glove if you want to come out this weekend

6/22/2006 7:38:28 PM

o sweet, im in either way

6/22/2006 8:11:28 PM

I'm supposed to be doing some moving this weekend. if that gets put off, I'll head out. I still have my catchers mit, just not a fielders glove

6/22/2006 8:34:34 PM

Anyone interested in the Wood-Aluminum bats? You've got to see them to believe they are out there.

Here's a link:

[Edited on June 22, 2006 at 9:29 PM. Reason : link]

6/22/2006 9:27:38 PM

would be pretty neat if they were allowed in this league for us poor folk that can't afford to break a bat, or have someone else break my bat !

6/22/2006 9:43:52 PM

yeah... i see bats being a problem, but you can purchase them for about $30... guess maybe we could split them 2 ways and whoever breaks it has to buy the next one??

idk, i just want to play again, i'm willing to shell out $ for a bat or 2.

the other problem is of course... lost baseballs

6/22/2006 11:21:19 PM

those balls at dicks are cheap enough to get lost. practicing with those would probably be fine
I think it's 50 for 36 balls ... which when a dozen leather balls is 30 that's not so bad

Thats kind of BS. Id rather just pay for my own than have someone break it in and me break it completly fouling a pitch off and have to pay for it. I'm just saying, it isnt a person's fault if they break a bat.

btw who is our catcher

[Edited on June 23, 2006 at 12:35 AM. Reason : .]

6/23/2006 12:31:50 AM

I've got full gear I can lend if ya'll need it probably

6/23/2006 12:40:25 AM

^^agreed, i will have my own... but i'm sure not everyone will

^^i'm catching, i have my gear too

anyone else catch, always good to have a couple, or at least someone else who could attempt it during practice or what not.

6/23/2006 6:25:21 AM

sounds like we finally got this thing rolling.

Thanks brooks for all your work

6/23/2006 10:16:02 AM

if I come out and work out I dont mind catching a bit. I've got all my shit. just gotta get new straps for the back of my shin guards. they're abit old... more like rope now than elastic.


how many is the tally now ab ?

6/23/2006 10:30:57 AM

i'd say tally is around 14 people... 12 that have come out and 2-4 new people who have PMed me in the past week

[Edited on June 23, 2006 at 4:43 PM. Reason : fucking better not POUR rain]

6/23/2006 4:43:24 PM

lots of rain

6/23/2006 5:53:28 PM

lots

6/23/2006 6:00:43 PM

this is BS, i just bought a wood bat today

6/23/2006 6:03:08 PM

sweet. what'd you get?

6/23/2006 6:05:01 PM

LS pro model 9

6/23/2006 6:08:22 PM

i prolly should start throwing with our catcher

probasesteal what is a good time of week for you

6/23/2006 6:39:07 PM

well i guess we will play it by ear tomorrow... looks like it maybe too rainy

^everyday i get off work about 2:30 then usually lift weights MWF, so anyday after 5:30 or T H after 3:00 i can throw with you
