We usually take BP whenever we can...what days are good for you?

Early in the week. I play Thur and Fri already.

What part of town are you in?

You looking late afternoon or evenings?

Larks,

I will go hit with you anytime. I am free early in the week as well for late afternoons/evenings.

I'd be up for some extra swings. I do pitch and can always use some extra practice there too. I'm free early in the week late afternoons/evenings...I'm near Kolping if that helps any.

Could you guys make 4:15 / 4:30?

I think Baker and I are both Westsiders but I'll be coming from Downtown so I can go anywhere.

Baker - where are you late afternoon? Glad you chimed in, I KNOW you can groove pitches! :)

Shall we shoot for Tomorrow or Wednesday? I can do either.

Where? Dravo? Crosby Elem? Eggleston? Kolping?

Unfortunately I never know *exactly* when I will be off work...I think that Tuesday or Wednesday would be fine (for me) and I should be able to get there by 4:15 or so. Kolping/Eggleston is fine; I've been to Dravo/crosby once but I can't remember exactly where either is at but I can go if it suits everyone better- I'll find their address.

Maybe we start the official CincySoftball BP. Set time. Set location.

Anyone welcome.

I think there's an 80% chance of Rain tomorrow (Tues). This Wed looks real good.

That will give us time to pick a spot and set things up.

Coy - thoughts / ideas?

I am playing already on Wed. night so I would love to get some swings in before the games. Dravo or Eggleston work real well for me. I play there at 7 & 8 on Wed. I could definately do 4:15-4:30. Let me know. Could we get Eggleston?

As for Grooving pitches, I am a pro.

I'm in Loveland...

Well I play Monday, Tuesday, and Fridays then my kids have soccer Monday and Wednesday. For me it'll have to be on a weekend granted I'm not playing in a tourny. Or early in the morning but you'll probably be at work at that time. I work 3rd shift so I get off at 8am.

I live on the westside and could take some BP around 2 or 3 any day during the week. I play tourneys every weekend though.

Lets Shoot for 4:15 at Dravo (sp?) tomorrow afternoon.

The place about 1 mile "west" from Eggleston on East Miami River Road.

Reply if you are "in"

I'll do my best to be there by 4:15 and I'll hopefully have some decent leftover balls as well.

If you were leaving Eggleston turn out of the parking lot and make a right at the stop sign on to East Miami River Road. Go about a mile to a mile and a half and Dravo is on the right. Start looking for it when you pass the Hamilton county firing range.

Come on out. Not a team thing. Just swings for whoever shows.

Well, we definately didn't have the turnout that we had hoped for, but I would like to do it again next week. One thing is for sure, next week we need at least one more person so Larks and I don't have to pitch.

Sorry about that - ended up working much later than expected (next Wednesday I'll definitely be working late).

Coy - We'll reload it again next Wednesday. I'll see if I can find us a pitcher.

Still happy to get 80 swings though. Thanks!

I wont complain either, I went 6-8 last night and hit the ball hard. I was reall happy to get a few swings in there as well.

Too bad you guys can't do it on a Thursday...I can pitch BP. Wednesday kids have soccer practice.
