I heard one neighbor is moving out of neighbhood because of noise, traffic and garbage coming with MLL expanded field use.

It is sad to see other people show their happiness publicly because they can enjoy MLL and leave sufferness to other people.

Comment on Safety Men Helping Slow Down Traffic by Ken Pyle

Thanks for pointing this out. Managers who arrive at the field are responsible for placing the cones and safety men. This is a new process for us, so, please, if you see that there are no cones or safety men, please notify the nearest parent and he/she will get them from the minor league score booth.

No cones or safety men tonight. This is a safety measure to keep our kids protected. We don’t let our kids up to bat or even out of the dug out without a helmet for fear of getting hit by a baseball. Imagine the impact of a car vs a child!. Maybe as we make the umpires responsible for safety checking players and gear they do not allow the game to start if the cones are not out. Although by the time the game starts its too late and a player rushing to be on time so he does not have to run laps has already been put in harms way. I live across the street and see near misses 6 days a week and in fact on saturday there was a car stopped in the cross walk to pick up their player and a elderly gentleman ridding on a scooter was forced into the street because the car was stopped in the cross walk. the same car started backing up and i stopped a parent pushing a stroller outside the cross walk because the SUV didn’t expect the pedestrian to be crossing the street outside the cross walk. Please keep our children safe

The players out in the field could hear nothing! This I believe made them very talkative & somewhat out of control. The Managers & Coaches would have liked to hear the PA as well. This happens every year! If we had just two or three more speakers facing the outfield the problem would be solved. FYI

Thanks Sandy for the comments and suggestions.

My pet peeve when I was in the outfield was not being able to hear the speakers. We will work our best to improve that for Closing Ceremonies.

I don’t think anything substantive was said after the T-Ballers left the field. It was probably me mumbling into the microphone.

Yes, I sped way too fast through the kudos to all who are making this happen. I actually mentioned 40 names, but I should have given time to let people absorb who they were (and had them come out to the field). I was so bad on this one, that I forgot to give Shandi Holder flowers for going above and beyond to make sure everyone is verified, placed on teams and allowing registration to go on for much longer than makes sense administratively – but it meant more kids get to play baseball this year.

Her attitude reflects the team of volunteers we have at MLL and why I am so lucky and proud to be associated with them…..more on that later.

Opening day was lots of fun. But, as a spectator out on the field it was difficult to hear any of the ongoing announcements or public speaking from the microphone…I believe that there were 2 speakers pointed to the bleachers—-the boys sitting/standing out on the field were chatting to eachother while the Program was in progress (I truly believe because they & the adult coaches couldn’t hear the PA). I even heard some other team coaches say “again this year, we can’t hear anything with this horrible PA System.

It was my 1st time being in the outfield as a participant.

I would like to suggest that maybe the league invest in a couple more speakers to face towards the coaches/players themselves—-I think that by doing this, the kids will settle down with the background chatter and listen to the great Program going on!

Or, just face 1 of the speakers towards the kids—-if $$$$ is tight in the league.

Sincerely,
A devoted fan
