I got a hit off a former Red
I play in an adult baseball league and played in a Labor Day tournament and a team from Ft Wayne Indiana had former Red Mike Roesler pitching for them. He hung a curveball and I smacked it to left for a solid single. I was pretty proud of myself, that is all.

Re: I got a hit off a former Red
Nice job!
Mike Roesler--that's a name I'd competely forgotten about. I'd also forgotten that he is a Fort Wayne native, just as I am.

Re: I got a hit off a former Red
That's awesome, man.
But shouldn't this be in the baseball forum? Not the non-baseball sports forum??? J/k man, if I had done this I would be posting it in every forum, regardless of whether it was a sports forum or not. |

Good job. I was expecting it to be Bernie Stowe.

Re: I got a hit off a former Red
I am heading out to Arizona to play in the Mens adult league world series, Cory Lidle's brother Kevin is on our team. I am not that good but am versatile and very solid defensively.

Re: I got a hit off a former Red
Big deal. I got a hit off of Tom Kramer in softball earlier this year.

Re: I got a hit off a former Red
My experience with umpires over the years leads me to thinking it's not such a bad ump if I say, "Well, he blew a few calls, but otherwise I have no complaints." Umpiring is very difficult, and people should cut many of them more slack than they do.

Re: I got a hit off a former Red
Got a solid single to left off Jack Billingham in fantasy camp a few years back! An aging Jack Billingham, to be fair! Then again, I was 40 at the time!
