That's just my point. Lob softball is fun for a pickup game at a "summer outing" (tom - ) but there are thriving lob pitch softball leagues when baseball SHOULD be the norm.
When I started playing fast pitch, there weren't any baseball leagues. Fast pitch demands too much time for most people. The games are fast but you can't just pick up a bat and hit a 70MPH fast ball (remember that it's thrown from 45 feet). I played mostly with the same group of nitwits for 24 years.
