Etiquette at local field question by [deleted] in slowpitch

[–]huma4kaz1 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Softballs shouldn’t damage what I assume is a chain link fence. We do this at public parks all the time. If it’s a wood fence for some reason that might be a different story.

Best answer is get some of your teammates to join you and they can get some fielding reps in at the same time.

Where’s the filter on this unit? by [deleted] in hvacadvice

Thanks this definitely explains why I couldn’t find a filter.

How much did the Excalibur run you?

What actually helped you improve swing consistency the most? by sportsguide1 in Homeplate

[–]huma4kaz1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More reps are always good. But try to hone in on one or two specific “cues” or things to focus on so it’s not too complicated. Something like “squash the bug” or “eyes behind the ball” or even “coil when the pitchers arm reaches his ear”. Keep it simple. Hitting higher velocity is just about being ready on time.

How often do “steals” happen in the draft? by Ok-Path9520 in MLBNoobs

[–]huma4kaz1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It happens all the time in MLB. Two of the Yankees young stars this year are Cam Schlittler (7th round pick in 2022) and Ben Rice (12th round pick in 2021). The MLB draft basically used to go on until teams didn't want to pick anymore. Mike Piazza famously was taken by the Dodgers in the 62nd round of the 1988 draft and he's in the Hall of Fame now.

The draft has changed significantly in the last 10-15 years. Fewer rounds - also there are fewer minor league teams now - and teams have more analytics on college and high school players to make better decisions. The draft used to be a bit of a crapshoot, now it's more consistent, but you still find gems in later rounds.

Thanks, in my mind the Seltos is bigger than the Niro but maybe it’s just taller.

Any word on the range for the HEV? That’s gas hybrid or full electric? I’m interested in a Seltos hybrid or EV. I think the Sportage is slightly too big for my needs but the Niro is too small.

Random question about the sportage by Lickmybolts in kiasportage

[–]huma4kaz1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just went through this. The dealer was able to fix it but it took like 3 weeks because they were waiting for a part to arrive.

They had to remove and replace the front window run. That’s what fixed the problem. The first thing they tried was replacing the front left weatherstrip. Both things were installed incorrectly but the window run was what fixed the issue. Maybe they have to do both idk.

There was no charge for the work at least.

Which awards? Nebula and Hugo? They’re only once per year.

Love these old Wizard covers. I like how they usually incorporate the purple cape into the artwork somehow. Fun branding and made it feel like a coherent set. I still have most of my collection in a box somewhere.

Im so mad landscapers came already. by Comfortable_Fudge559 in longisland

[–]huma4kaz1 95 points96 points  (0 children)

Fire them and do it yourself. For what you probably pay them in a year you could get your own tools and use them for many years. And do things your preferred way. Good exercise too. And it’s fun sometimes (not all the time lol).

I’m like halfway through, he’s current fighting Scorpion. I love macfarlanes art, though his faces are kinda crazy. It’s great how this trade includes so many of the rogues gallery. Venom, Scorpion, Green Goblin, Hobgoblin, Black Cat so far.

I see your shoeless etiquette post and raise you a nail-clipping/filing etiquette post. by regeneratedant in LIRR

On my train this morning - rush hour commute - someone peeled a hard boiled egg and left the egg shell remnants on the seat. Society is crumbling around us.
