I'm playing in a coed league right now. I haven't yet mastered the art of hitting a slow pitch. I've noticed some of the men take a good step into their swing. I'm used to baseball where you have to shorten your swing or you'll never be able to catch up to a fastball.
Softball bores the hell out of me as does baseball. Last time I was talked into playing, I got hit in the dick while playing the hot corner. Ball bounced up and hit me right on the pecker. Hurt like hell.
