Where the heck is 16-inch "mushball" even played??
The last time I've seen one of those cantaloupes was in intramural softball at West Point when I played on our company team back in 1982. The only player allowed to wear a glove was the first baseman. Our team was in the Corps of Cadets' championship game, we had the tying run on base with two outs in the final inning, and yours truly tried to hit it over the first baseman (who was about 6'5" and had a mitt about 20 inches in length). I nailed it, but he reached up high and caught it. I still remember it to this day.
