Hey batter batter, Swing!
We start gathering around 6 but you can come when you finish work or that errand you have to do after work. (-:
The teams are best if we have 10 on each side. So please RSVP to let us know if you can definately make it, just watching, maybe or absolutely no.
Most important rules... 1) Have Fun! 2) When you hit the ball...RUN! 3) Never listen to the other team's instructions. 4) And Very important....HAVE FUN! (-:
One additional rule just to help... When the ball is hit, the runners on the base should run to the next one. Exceptions to the rule are if you do NOT have someone on the base behind you. (if you are on third and there is not a runner on second and there is only one out then you don't HAVE to run.)
There are 2 kinds of hits: Pop and grounder. A grounder goes on the ground and this is your que to RUN RUN RUN! A pop flies high in the air and the people in the field try to catch it. If it looks like the person might catch it, then this means you should take a few steps toward the next base, maybe even go half way but if it is caught then you must go back to the base you were on. If you don't go back then you will be out.
Hope I didn't confuse you with the above explaination and that you found it helpful.
You are under no obligation to play. We will retire to the drinking hole nearest the field after game time for some good banter.
Look forward to seeing everyone there. The more the merrier. Feel free to add people to this invite.
