What men's fastpitch team did you play with?Where to begin OK well I was a two sport athlete football and baseball from the time I was eight years old till I was 20 I did not have the grades to go to a four-year university so I went the junior college route played junior college ball baseball and football which was short-lived because I had to put myself through school. After college from about 25 till around 33-ish I played baseball for the LA Baseball league it was very competitive at the time. I got to play with guys from college all the way to former minor-league ball players.
However, playing Fastpitch started for me when I was about 15 I would play in various city leagues with my uncles I liked it because I thought it made me a better baseball hitter. In my early 20’s I wanted to learn how to pitch I was told to go play Modified pitch It would help the learning curve. I did so for several years as I got better I started to make the transition to pitching mens Fastpitch. I remember at one point I would play Modified pitch on Tuesdays and Saturdays, Men’s Fastpitch on Thursday and sometimes on Sunday and men’s baseball league on Sundays, I did that for years along with whatever tourneys I was invited to.
Buuuuut for the last 15 years I’ve primarily just played men’s Fastpitch on occasion some modified tourneys. I will play some city league stuff and any Scifls that come up to help get us ready for the big tournaments like Nationals, Masters and the Vegas tourney. Where coincidentally enough that’s how I met Bill Hillhouse was at the Vegas tourney about six years ago. By the way super smooth watched him throw a game. It looked almost as though he was bored he was throwing so effortlessly… that’s me in a nutshell

I enjoyed the opportunity to play with the men's fastpitch team Long Beach Nighthawks on several occasions.
Couple of my teammates from Long Beach State played as well.
