    How many softballs do we have? Are we going to need to buy some? If so let me know, I am sure Modells has one of those buckets cheap with like 10 in it cheap. I have an O's ticket with $10 off.

    Also, is there a certain size of softball we would prefer?

    Roughly the size of a basketball, for those of us batting challenged.

    See if they have big fat aluminum bats... like the big red plastic wiffle ball kind, too.

    From the sounds of it, maybe we should make plans for a batting cage day. I have a discount card for Thunderstix, if anyone is interested. Just let me know when, and I am there, preferably weekend.

    I can do the batting cages if anyone's interested in joining me. I can always use the extra bat swings!

    Where you going Vince's, and when?

    Oh and the Coupon has to be used within 10 days of the game, which was on Sunday. So need to know by this weekend, or U could always use the ticket from the 25th.

    Hmmm, sometime in the next few weeks I guess. Probably Vince's, but maybe the Elkton outdoor cages too, if the weather is good. Whenever you're thinking of going just post in here or let me know.

    Yeah whenever I go, I will just post it here, so everyone knows. Same for you, let me know. Thinking about Thunderstix today, took another day off.

    Re: 2011 TalkDelaware Softball Game

    Went to Vinces today, first time in cage not so good. Every time after that pretty decent, until i started to get a little tired from swinging non stop. Went into the Medium pitch Baseball, uh no Baseball for thanks! Went into the fast pitch softball, made some contact (definitely better then Medium baseball), but nothing to brag about.

    As for Softballs, I bought 2-6 packs of 12" Recreational Balls. Got the biggest balls they had Terri just for you. Bought me a new bat too. So I will be bringing 2 bats and 12 balls. Have an extra glove too, but if anyone uses it, I highly suggest they wear a batting glove with it, so your hand don't turn black.

    If you don't swing the bat a lot (like all of us I bet ) you'll be surprised how quickly you tire out in a batting cage. It's a little depressing actually, lol, tiring out so quickly at slow pitch softball swings. But I totally experienced the same thing last year. Oh, and you'll also be surprised how bad you'll do at fast pitch softball. Don't bring any girls you're trying to impress as you may just get laughed at lol

    Well considering I swung at 96 balls total, I didn't think I did that bad. The body hurts a little today, since that was the first time swinging a bat in who knows how long.

    These conversations are so bad. Balls, bats, swinging....
