Probably the time I got asked to play softball by a buddy of mine for his church team......
I was playing 5 nights a week at the time, and not a bad player to begin with all the extra PT was helping my game out a lot.
I am a pretty competitive person when it comes to playing sports so I probably shouldn't have even went to a church league to play. These guys were having waaaaaaay too much fun getting their asses kicked by all the other teams on a weekly basis.
So I go out the first time (and last) and my buddy tells the guy who runs the team bat him first and me second, worst comes to worst we get in a run at least since I have a pretty heavy stick. So the guy proceeds to bat me last in the lineup and I get pretty pissed off. After about the 6th inning when I finally get up to bat and we are down about 40-2 I let rip on this ball like the mighty Lord himself hit it with a bolt of lightning. This ball shot off my bat like I have never hit a ball before or since it flies over the left fielders head and heads toward an old rock quarry a good 100 feet PAST the 300 foot outfield fence. I hear my buddy jumping and screaming "OHSHITOSHITOHSHIT it it going in the water".
I walk the bases and end up on third base where the guy who runs the team is standing telling me to head on home, I stop on 3rd and tell him "Don't ever bat me fucking last again".
Needless to say I never played in that church league again, but it was the farthest I ever hit a ball and it was a great feeling watching it soar into the heavens.
