If you do, what position do you play and what handedness are you throwing/batting?

I play CF, RF, LF. In order of where I play most. And I'm right-handed. I'm practicing switch hitting but I don't think I'll be ready for that in a while.

I plan on being a part of my university's baseball team next year, I believe they are an NCAA Division 3-A. I've played LF, 3B, SS and occasionally RF and 1B. I throw and bat right-handed @ 6'0" 182 lbs.

Nice. I don't play on a team, but I hope to join my high school team when I get there next year.

I know I'd play outfield if I played. I can play left or center field. I throw and bat left-handed, but I am working on switch hitting. I can swing the bat right handed and it feels comfortable, I just don't make contact with the ball as well as I do batting left-handed. Maybe it's because I've never faced left-handed pitchers before. :lol:

i can play 3B, RF, and pitcher. B/T L/R. I dont have a dominating fastball, nor nasty breaking ball, but good control. More of a contact hitter with decent power, good fieling abiliteis, but no speed.

I play, I actually had a game today, we won. I play LF I bat and throw right, unfortinally this will probably be my last year playing because I have serious elbow problems, some shoulder problems, and my knees and ankles are deteriating from playing 2 sports(basketball, baseball) for 10 years, and played footbally for like 6 years...my knees were very bad at a young age because I was always playing sports.

I used to play in High School and one semester in College. I played CF batted lead off. Bat right throw right. In rec leagues, I batted third and would play second and short every now and then. I'm actually looking for an adult league to play in but you'd be surprised at how few there are in a baseball town like Long Beach.

i used to play baseball in High School. Played 2nd, Short, 1st, Right, Catcher, Pitcher(a few times). I mainly played 2nd and Right my freshman year, pitched a few games. Sophomore year i played Catcher mainly along with Short and 2nd. Junior year i was a pinch runner on our Varsity team, and would pitch for our JV, if i wasnt pitching, i would be 1st or short, depending on which other pitcher was throwing that game.

5'6 132lbs. bat and throw right. only had 3pitches, decent change-up, 4seam, and a good 2seam with nice movement. couldnt control my curveball or slipter
As a fielder i had a good arm decent fielding and average speed, pitching wise, didnt have much speed with decent control.

i'm a utility man, I can play 1B/2B/SS/3B/OF

sometimes I pitch, i have absolutely no speed whatsoever (tried a speed pitch machine, maxed out near 80 :| )
good breaking pitches, change-up, sinker, drop curve (my own pitch i made), slider, splitter
decent control, good stamina

could play catcher, but once again no arm.

B/T: R/S, I'm a contact hitter, some power, good speed (get infield hits every once in a while)
