    I have played this game for many years. As an older player with a disability (losing my eyesight due to shrapnel), my hand eye coordination has taken a turn for the worse. For clarification, I spend most of the year in the Division rank in RS but have made WS a few times over the years and I am ok with that. It is what it is at my age.

    During that time, I have played many WS players as well as a few elite level players and while the wins may have been few and far between in those match ups, I have for the most part, always been able to hold my own and had never been mercied. Until today.

    I matched up with a player in the 600s if memory serves. I jumped out to 1-0 lead after one. The second inning came off the rails and this guy literally hit EVERYTHING I threw no matter where I threw it. Never before had I been hit so thoroughly. Sinkers high, low, a foot outside it didn't matter. Cutters a foot inside, sliders in the dirt, fastballs a foot high, or splitters down and out made no difference as he hit them all.

    I don't know if he was using zone, directional or what but whatever he was doing was working.

    Hands down one of the most dominant displays of hitting I have encountered. I looked through his game history and most of his games were close affairs so I'm not sure what changed to become the hitting master he was in my game but I definitely recommend he continue.

    We’ve all been there brother lol…It’s jaw dropping & humbling when it happens but usually the next game SDS throws me a cream puff so it balances out. My advice - Jump right back in.

    Oh yeah, you ride until the horse bucks you or you don't ride at all. I had just never encountered that type of hitting prowess so I had to post about it. It was awe inspiring LOL

    That's hilarious!! Maybe today just isn't my day. Had another game where I got hit around more than usual. Not nearly as bad as the guy I describe in my OP but certainly more than normal. Oh well, tomorrow is another day.
