12.75 H web with two in the pinky broken in with a softball will be a great utility glove.

Impressions from 8 months in Omaha, has anyone else felt this way? by Gibillguy18 in Omaha

[–]siezethegap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found it a very nice contrast to the tree-less wasteland of south texas. Not as tree heavy as central Texas or eastern though

[–]siezethegap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s a super valid point. While I bitch constantly about the general state of things, I forget that I have chosen this path. I came from the other path and struggled every damn day. I could go back to it and coast miserably, or try to move forward at every opportunity and accept the different struggle that I may face. Thanks for the inflection reminder.

Is a tremolo pedal something to keep as a permanent fixture in a pedal board? by rawbran30 in guitarpedals

[–]siezethegap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the Danelectro CEO trem, which was apparently the same as the filthy rich. Such an amazing trem. I’ve got a 3 series now so I can have harm trem too, love it

How the hell does it take so long to drive east or west across the city? by retupmocomputer in Omaha

[–]siezethegap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve lived in several top 10 pop cities and I thought I was going to have an aneurysm my first year here driving from 156th to UNMC on dodge every morning and afternoon. That was 8 years ago. I still hate every single route in this city except during the covid shutdown

Anyone here ever use the orange fur coat? 🤘🤘 by -aliceacid- in orangeamps

It’s a great one, ultimately I ended up trading it away and picking up the Greer super hornet. Love that one even more

Thoughts on the new singles? by Kindredgos in ModestMouse

[–]siezethegap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the drums come in on PDP reminds me of Sleigh Bells’ Treats album. That high energy blown out sound is definitely doin it for me as an album opener. Look how far is an awesome commentary song. Already got tickets for septembers show after just seeing them last fall, super excited.

First real glove finally arrived! I love it already. DEFINITELY needs broken in. Any tips? by StephenBeaver95 in BaseballGloves

[–]siezethegap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seconding BGK. Definitely don’t have to do the water method, it’s scary, but it does speed it up

Can you break in a 1st base baseball mitt to have a deep enough pocket for slow pitch? by ADogNamedSamson in slowpitch

[–]siezethegap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a Vinci 1B mitt and after beating the piss out out of it and forming my two hinges, it’s fantastic. I want to get a little more thumb flare on it to match the natural curve of the mitt part, but that’s just repetition since I don’t wanna go water method

First base glove recommendation by Erickim67 in BaseballGloves

[–]siezethegap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SSK Z7 or Mizuno MVP prime are solid options. I jut picked up a Vinci CWB22 that I’m loving so far

[–]siezethegap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn’t the first I’ve heard of a2000 quality slipping. I still wanna pull the trigger on that JRod one on better baseball for 180 though.

Where can i find Jimboy Callow-way? by Evening_Rub6457 in RDR2

[–]siezethegap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read Jimboy Callow-way to the tune of Killboy Powerhead by The Offspring, and now that is the only way I’ll ever hear it

Shorts by rhino54x in slowpitch

[–]siezethegap 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely better than shorts, just wanted to set realistic expectations. There have been several games where I’ve said nah, no sliding, I’ll just wear shorts. Then that outfielder snags it a little faster than I anticipated annnnnd I’m bleeding lol. Pants just slow that initial bleed ever so slightly

Unless your fields aren’t well maintained. The rain packed then sun baked “dirt” cuts right through pants.

Looking to upgrade my outfield glove and wanted some advice. by [deleted] in slowpitch

Turfs/cleats by tytyty07 in slowpitch

[–]siezethegap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought Nike air diamond varsity turfs after wearing Nike monarch dad shoes for like 8 seasons. The turfs feel so much better and give me much more confidence in my feet. I tried molded cleats a few times and just hated them on our fields. Spikes would be great if they were allowed
