I’m pretty sure I remember your daughter I showed a picture to my wife and she said she remembered her too small world  
 
Is 716 still going I heard they were the elite Buffalo team for a while they had a big tall girl who threw fIre was she one of those Clarence pitchers? 
my Kira is playing for couple of teams out of Rochester if we can play this summer 

They’re still going. Their best pitcher left for an Intensity team I believe, she’s also a great third baseman and can rake at the plate. Emma doesn’t want to play in college so she decided to leave 716 and play with her friends in Clarence. Our team looks really good I hope we get some kind of season in

How did Oklahoma University handle Emma’s decision to decline the offer?

I heard OU understood because she was going to MIT instead and then on to Harvard for her masters to eventually become the first female President all while still catching on the side haha. 

[The_Real_TCIII]

Both incorrect, she’s going to catch and hit third for the Vandy men’s team

Yeah that sux maybe by late July or Aug I hope we can play some.  There is only a few active cases in my county but I think they don’t want folks traveling to spread it and no large crowds so time will tell 

[The_Real_TCIII]

Yeah we were scheduled to go to Monroeville Pa where there are no cases, I can’t imagine they’d allow 30 people from Erie county to come there

Arm care and swing are key but don’t forget those fast twitch muscle movements. Explosive first steps, lateral quickness, reaction drills...my boy is getting a daily ladder drill sequence with some 90’ sprints and some “starts” from a leading posture

Are we allowed to officially practice on town fields?? Duffy nor Bello seem interested in answering that question. 

[Lomax]

Yes we are 2nd weekend for us. Not full team practices just smaller groups.  Getting ready for our 1st tournament in PA on 6/27 and 6/28.

Monroe County 

Town Park several teams have been practicing there.  This is Finger Lakes Region retail and outdoor dining open here too.  Waterloo outlet mall packed today 
 

think we must be ahead of Westchester in terms of opening 

[Lomax]

Yes I just checked and this is Town of Penfield public park and it’s website indicates it’s open from 9am to 10pm. There is big off leash dog park and there was over 25 people there w dogs. Kids on the playground. Slowly reopening here

Pitching and catching at Spring Lake Park

Pitching and catching at Spring Lake Park 

Atta girl!!! My niece pitches for Colgate. Those girls have nerves of steal ending up like 10 paces from a swinging bat and zipping line drives.
I tried to catch one of her bullpens last summer and came home with a busted thumb and bruised shins. They make that softball do crazy things.

My sons 11u team is back practicing but more tournaments are canceling and as of now only have 2 still on. One I Elmira and Ripken. We might travel to an event in Kentucky for baseball youth the end of July to play some damn ball. Our little league is still shooting for July return which is great because most around here have canceled.

[Lomax]

Hope your son gets to play soon Zag we are scheduled for our 1st tournament next weekend in PA near Williamsport then full schedule in July w tournaments and league night on Tues At Onondaga CC.  Lots of new rules mostly involving social distancing and cleanliness.  As long as they get to play safely 

[crappyice]

My boy starts in East stroudsburg next weekend. Had a few team workouts on closed fields in the Bronx to try and get their legs under them. 1st tourney is always an adventure but it’s usually in March.

Yeah man she busted her ass through HS and that continues through college. Tough spring with a canceled season for her obviously especially since she finally got a few at bats in early spring training - 3rd at bat ....Grand Slam....she was fired up for a Swaim for sure and doesn’t have much opportunity to play over the summer. Back to solo training.

Yeah the gov mentioned something Friday about new restrictions and no traveling or tournaments. So annoying

My grandsons 16u AA travel team has canceled all tournaments. Sucks, as he lost a whole season, not playing varsity school ball as well.

So he went out and got a job at the local horse stable for some spending money. He's been training really hard for football season. Hopefully we will have those games come September!

His goal. Not ours. Is to play either baseball, or football at a D1 school. He just may do it? He works out year round. Has the size, athleticism, coachability, and mindset to make it happen. Barring a major injury or set back, we will see? He will be a junior this fall. Has two more years to develop.

That stinks, our travel team said they may try extending the season into the fall if possible. In our state it’s hard to see how football will happen at all at this point.
