The other night, a bunch of guys and I got together for a softball practice at an indoor facility in Glen Ellyn. It wasn't really a practice though as there wasn't enough room to take ground balls or anything like that, just hitting and some throwing. It's been a few months since I threw a softball and at the start of the practice session, my shoulder experienced the same discomfort that I had most of last season (save for a scant few throws in the summer when my shoulder had no discomfort at all). On the hitting side of things though I was hitting rockets. If you can hit in softball, there will always be a team that wants you to play with them.
This group of guys, with whom I'll be traveling to Arizona at the end of February, was mostly from another team which is actually sponsored by a strip club. Too funny. They do have pretty awesome uniforms though and no, they aren't g-string related. What was originally going to be 8-10 of our my regular team and 2-4 of their guys has flipped to only 4-5 of our guys and mostly their guys. It should still be fun, but probably not as much fun as if it were just our guys.
Before we play ball down there I'm going to get a few rounds of golf in on Thursday and Friday. Should be fun!

Your arm felt better with more throws, right?
How did your shoulder feel the next day?
The next day it felt fine. Two days later BOTH shoulders were sore as well as my ribcage. No swings for a bit will do that!
Ahhhh softball. There's hope that the winter will eventually come to an end.
