I still don't know how that happened, but I don't want to try it again.

Nope. I was actually supposed to do a slow pitch gig last weekend, but Luau "twisted" my arm by offering "milkshakes". And Sonny thought that was a good idea - so, naturally, I went & worked for Luau.
I know I'm somewhat biased, but I don't believe that the typical slow pitch game is as intense as the typical fast pitch game. I think you can do many more slow pitch games without losing focus or intensity.
