  • Two of the best

    Just got into fastpitch 3 years ago after stepping away from 25+ years of baseball.

    This pod is very informative and helpful for a guy like me who essentially knew nothing of the sport.

    Framer and Hopey are two guys that have constantly given back to the sport in the their communities and other communities as well & they are a huge reason the game is still played in Nova Scotia.

    Love it fellas. Keep it up.
