Who plays Baseball or Softball?

sup2jzgte · 06-05-2007, 09:44 PM

Ok I'm asking this on all of the forums I belong to just to get a general idea for a project I'm doing.

Who here plays Baseball or Softball semi competitively. What I mean is you play atleast a 1 or twice every week or so. Now you dont have to be on a team or anything, you just need to play a competitive game. If you do play, do you wear any protective gear other than a helmet and or jockstrap? Things like thumb protectors, sliding shorts, wrist guards, etc.

If you do wear gear please post what.

Maybe its cause its been years since I've played but what is a thumb protector?

And I always wore my gear, just too many problems can happen.

Nope, I wear the jock strap and when I'm hitting, I wear a helmet. Anything else , IMO, just slows you down and feels awkward.

You should wear the gears, never know when you might get hit by a ball on you head

Yeah I have heard a few people say that as well, the only things I wear is an elbow guard because I had my elbow shattered a few years ago.

I don't really playing baseball. It seems boring to me, but hey if I'm not mistaken it is the most popular sport in th US. (not regarding NASCAR) Some refer it to " the gentlemens' sport."

One run in like 20 minutes...

Or, the thinking man's game... I love the fact that it seems to be a lot like chess is some ways, managers making moves and the managers countering with other moves... Ooooh, so great.

Anyway, I don't personally play right now, but I used to 5 or 10 years ago... I've kinda been thinking about getting involved again.
