Anyone stupid enough to pitch better have a GREAT glove hand and an overall keen sense of reflex, otherwise they are dead. Let alone being able to actually pitch, which is an art form.
I have "struck out the side" in our Sunday night league once. Tough to do even with a third strike foul being out... But I have also come within one strike a couple times in leagues that don't have that rule.
"Just flip your wrist a bit" is funny, rubecube... almost as funny as you indicating you are a "ringer".
Hell, one team in our Sunday night league had TWO ex-MLB players on it. Now THEY are ringers. Let alone the countless ballplayers who are exceptionally gifted that I have seen over the years.

wear shin guards and a mask.... or smarten up ... i mean hell if you can find 3 fast outfielders and run a 5 man infield......... If you watch an high level softball , at least in the states you will see most teams running a 5 man.... Hell when we went to "C" world we were the only team not running a 5 man . After our pitcher got blown up a couple times we went to the 5 man and they stopped hitting the middle
