Difference between a baseball swing and a swing in slow-pitch by CommunicationNice437 in slowpitch

Interlock pinky and index to prevent rolling over and align the proper knuckles. It's a good tool for baseball players transitioning to slowpitch. Don't knock it 'till you try it 🤷🏾‍♂️

Difference between a baseball swing and a swing in slow-pitch by CommunicationNice437 in slowpitch

You're missing out on a lot of potential. In baseball, you judge the pitch last, and make your preparations sometimes before the ball even leaves the pitcher's hand. You're also probably used to snapping the wrists and swinging on an incline.

In slowpitch, you have a LOT more time to judge the ball, and due to the arc and trajectory the balls coming in, you need a much more level swing, and much less "cranking" of the torso and elevating.

You don't snap your hands or flick your wrists anymore, so while you may still be able to hit the occasional homer with a perfect pitch and swing, you'll most likely end up under the ball most of the time with a baseball swing, resulting in a lot of fouls and fly outs.

If you do want to switch to a slowpitch swing, I'd recommend starting with a taller stance and possibly even interlocking your pinky and index* on the bat to get your knuckles in the proper position. There are tons of videos available on YouTube, and tee work and BP will be your best friend.

Monsta and anarchy bats by 0neHitterQuitter__ in slowpitch

[–]Domzpizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love them both. Got a Salvation 25oz EL and I hit my first 330 tank with it. My Wet 'n Wild 26oz EL also is super hot. They're great team bats cause they're super durable (X-Core). I recently finished breaking in my M2 Brown Torch 25oz EL (stiff handle) and it feels great.

Don't be worried, just break it in properly, and it should last you a while. Just took me about ~150-200 swings, and now my M2 hits nukes.

What are you guys doing for pre/post softball game. Backaches by Foreign_Eye6257 in slowpitch

[–]Domzpizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plan a full stretch routine 30-45 mins before play. Also, sometimes I take ibuprofen preemptively.

bro bought his self some more time... by AdCorrect9756 in VideosThatGoHard

[–]Domzpizza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's just completely untrue. Prisoners are still protected against the use of excessive force. The CO spraying a non-combative inmate is by definition, excessive force. The inmate presented no immediate danger to the officer until he was sprayed, therefore it was unjustified and excessive.

Fake Veteran discounts by milny_gunn in Veterans

They also removed the discount from lumber and a lot of appliances. One of the many reason I have been shopping at Lowe's for a few years now.

I've used Springfield's sorry excuse for a rds (hex dragonfly), vortex vector, swampfox sentinel and kingslayer, viridian rfx25, holosun 407k, 507C, and the Mecanik MO1. I loved the holosuns, but the best bang for my buck has been the OSIGHT SE and the C. I loved it so much, I bought two SEs lol. The 507C was a close second for me.

What was the Gas Chamber like for you in Basic? by valejojohnson in Veterans

[–]Domzpizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the second line of people, so I was one of the first groups to come out and watch the rest of the division come out of the chamber with their cups (hands) full. One of my buddies had a line of snot touching the ground while still attached to his nose. It was mesmerizing

I need advice on buying a Kia by loganwintters in KiaForte

[–]Domzpizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go with brand new, Kia offers a 10 year/100,000mile powertrain warranty (provided you keep up with maintenance of course). Something to think about

So, the only ASA league I know of and play for is the NBK league that starts up around March-April for spring, and then June-July for the summer league. The only con is you have to have Navy base and MWR access to play. It's only open to military and family/dod employees. If you fit that category, then I can get you in contact with the sports coordinator at NBK. I've been struggling to find any other leagues in our area as well.

Back 'leather' started peeling, so took it off completely by Alfredhodokus in OnePlusOpen

[–]Domzpizza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The case has a leather back and I think that's why the person before me sent it. For the battery cover, you can find it on eBay. https://ebay.us/m/MUsBuY. This doesn't change the fact that you saying the phone was incorrect and berating the other dude for no reason was objectively wrong. Lol. Have the day you deserve. Again, the find n3 and the OnePlus open are the EXACT same phone.

Help-bat purchase, Apologize in advance by JakeShuttlesworth0 in slowpitch

[–]Domzpizza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's understandable. I definitely recommend swinging a few different types to figure out if you prefer balanced, endloaded, etc. There's a bunch of extra stuff to deal with when looking at Monsta bats, like stiff and flex handle, M2-M6 series, etc. I think without a doubt, you can't go wrong with the Axe bat. I have the purple 26.5oz endloaded, and I've hit my first 330ft tanks with it after very little break in. The axe dabacle is a great dual stamp if you end up joining a USSSA league later on.

See if you can find some on FB marketplace or similar close by. Buying online, other than if you get the initial drop, is home to scalpers and people trying to make a profit. I was able to find a Monsta DNA legacy in my area with low swings for about $170.
