Damn, hitting at .714? Dude, you need to tell me how to swing a bat. I seriously hit a softball like a girl. I'm usually fast enough to run out almost all of my ground balls but my hitting is really pretty pathetic.

Nice WOD too. I really like linking lots of hang cleans together. I'm traveling today and jumped into a crossfit class outside of Baltimore. The WOD wasn't bad -actually it was all cardio.
3 rounds for time of 1000m row and 800m run. My time was 25:02 which turned out to be the second best of the day.

Any tips for dbl unders? Im having trouble with them.

Haha thanks dude. They call me solly singles because I just put the ball where no one is. I don't have power but I get on base. Tonight I went 0-2 with a sacrifice fly which scored a run. We win again. We're like 9-1 now.

As for double unders just practice. I can't tell to what to do but you you need to make sure you jump high enough and swing your wrists really fast. I'm not great at them but I think I picked it up faster than most do. Or my other cf friends anyway.

I slacked a little last week with a lot of softball games and going away but last night I was back

dude I was .714 before last week. I sh1t the bed towards the end lol. It's cool though we won our second game last night because of my hit so I can't worry about personal stats. And yea slow pitch. Those high balls aren't easy to place like modified pitch.

I haven't looked into sprint triathlons and don't even know what they are. Off to google for me.

I played plenty of slo pitch up until this year. It is a different style of hitting. You have to roll that top hand over or it will be a flyout. Did the league keep stats or just you informally?

Sprint triathlon as I read are 350 yards swimming, 11 mile bike ride, 5k run. I might try it saturday for fun. I have a pool, a bike and a treadmill.

Triathlons are a lot of fun. I've been competing since I was 12.

Sprints are the introduction level, they vary pretty broadly in the distances though. Olympic, half Ironman, and Ironman are all standard distances.

Transitions can be tricky, but overall its a lot of fun and you should enjoy yourself.
