That's because slow pitch softball is most definitely a hitters game it definitely takes guts to be a picture you're a sitting duck out there I've seen many pictures take line drive directly to the face the ball comes off the bus so hard and fast that they just don't have time to get their glove up

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,
I refused to play this for years. I was a pitcher and I had no respect for slow pitch... Then I got old and now I get hammered on Tuesday nights and hit frozen ropes.
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
James Harris That's right it take a little to get the timing ,it's totally different when you was played a do a long baseball. Now it's a matter of diversion.
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.
I played open class softball for twenty years. We had aluminum bats and blue or red dot balls. We still hit them out but the balls got the crap beat out of them and by the end of the game they were like socks. It's a great game and you bashers couldn't get on the field with these guys .
@@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 !
@@strikeeagle6871you meant “roided up animals” right? I noticed there are very few players at this level that are below 200 pounds. At least half of these guys are on gear and I don’t blame them as they work .
Btw yeah I’ll never understand why they allowed bats in that allowed pretty much everyone to hit home runs. Watching many of these games is like watching home run derby and that’s not good
Yes it's full size baseball field, 99 percent of these guys all played high school and college baseball some have MLB backgrounds, they play softball to stay competitive, these guys have jobs and families to take care of, their not trying to relive their glory days. All bats are checked and and they can only use bats that pass testing! Nothing against baseball but if you look up 2017 draft picks in MLB, the first 25 only two are still in pro baseball, just saying
@@raysanchez5829 I don't even need to look that up to know it isn't true.. Only 2 from the 25 from 2017 are in pro ball? You need to look that up again.. I bet all 25 are still playing.

@@derekbrowning5955 these guys are hitting the ball alot harder than any little league or high school team easy...you must not have played competitve slow pitch
No one is throwing 80 in LL. I played d1 baseball and modified softball as I got older. Playing 3rd with some of these harder Dudley balls is insane. There are different compressions and cores on the balls. The harder ones get hit over 100 mph and 3rd is only 60 feet away. That’s a much faster reaction time than mlb 3rd baseman.
Just by Reading the comments I can tell many of you have NO CLUE... I dare you to try this game live and I am sure you could not do the same as these guys. I AM SURE OF THAT
rules question: is this rule the same in slo-pitch softball as it is in baseball and fast pitch softball - batter is out if catcher catches a foul tip when there are 2 strikes on the batter?
@@donniehoward8438 - thanks . 1. does it matter if the catcher is standing up or knelling down or squatting down like a baseball catcher? 2. if the plate umpire is taller than the catcher and a foul ball strikes the plate umpire, is the ball dead or can it still be caught by the catcher resulting in an out? If it can't why why would the catcher not stand in front of the PU during the pitch ?
Apparently the only criteria for a pitch to be called a ball is that the batter didn't swing at it. I'm in the 3rd inning and I think Doc has called 3 pitches strikes.
i play all three baseball, mens fastpitch and slow pitch and honestly i hit a homerun in all three but yes all three are completely different i enjoy playing slow pitch nothing wrong with showing off your swing its all for fun it's really not that competitive like baseball and fastpitch tho i just enjoy playing i have so much love and respect for the game
Lol not that competetive? Im sure you could get a world championship ring but hey you dont take it that serioiusly. Id really like to see you take some swings beside Helmer.
Myles Vogel awe you mad cause you probably can't hit the ball for shit and it's only slow pitch I don't think you should be playing slow pitch if you can't drive the ball over the wall majority of the time you piece of shit
This reminds me of youth majors league hitting bombs every game with juiced composite bats before 2009. Lol good times this looks chill and fun to go hit with a bunch of guys.
It's underhanded, slow pitching. There are little kids out there doing this, on the weekends with their dads. Maybe they're not crushing the ball for home runs like grown men, but still, this game looks like an excuse for out-of-shape and past-their-prime guys to enjoy the rush of hitting a home run.
I've played at this level. I didn't like it. It's the attitude(s). The "my shit don't stink" is rife. I wasn't the hardest hitter on the team, nor am I now...there is a very a persistent belief that if you aren't hitting the ball out every at-bat, somehow you are less of a player. My OBP was the highest on the team and my fielding errors the lowest...still little respect. It is what it is, though. The teams are the way they are, so I parted ways rather than bitch.
Sure thing. Its a leverage thing. Its like when you use a sledge hammer you start off hands apart but slide both hands as far down the handle as you can during the downswing. With the hand over hand, hes at the furthest leverage point of the bat. You sacrifice control for bat speed.
Two things jump out at me here: first, what other posters have said about guys being out of the box, guessing they just waived that rule or something, and second, playing five-man on THAT field?
in usssa its not an active rule anymore that you have to stay in the box. it was changed pretty recently I believe. and yeah playing a 3 man outfield on that field would be rough lol

Nah fr this is actually entertaining ngl
IN this game you're allowed to hit the ball with one foot out of the batters box?....... apparently. See 19:36
I noticed that on 3rd batter
As long as back foot as at the plate
Two things jump out at me here: first, what other posters have said about guys being out of the box, guessing they just waived that rule or something, and second, playing five-man on THAT field?
in usssa its not an active rule anymore that you have to stay in the box. it was changed pretty recently I believe. and yeah playing a 3 man outfield on that field would be rough lol
how do i join this
49:50 he could've robbed that! What?
hard to tell from the angle also look like it was on a hill
Not even fair bubba Mack is swinging a bubba Mack
It's funny that these guys hit so many HRs they don't even jog the bases!
what a crowd what a crowd!
Still, a bigger crowd than CrossFit games.
What kind of ball is that they fly!
Stadium
What is the feet for bases
are they using a 47/450??
+ATL3xtra wahatever stadium balls are
RESMONDO game. December 2024 🥎🎄🏅✨️👍🏼 !!!
loved the game tho
Oh my, look how fast the ball comes t the plate, It's a wonder that the batters don't foul everything off to the opposite field.
I just started playing slow pitch softball and still trying to figure out if it takes more skill or a good bat to become a power hitter?
I play as well and I'd say both are factors.
Helmer looks exactly like Agent Schrader from Breaking Bad. And how old is Dedonatis? He throws like a lefty trying to throw with right arm.
I'd like to see these guys play ball with bats from the 70's-80's era. Could they still hit the long ball????? I'm guessing a 1/3 would fall short.
