Yeah, adult slow pitch teams seem to attract a lot of alcoholics...

I'm with Mike on the fact that slow pitch pitchers have a lot of impact on the game - there is a tremendous amount of variability that they control. Are they comparable in athletic ability to fast pitch players? I wouldn't say so. But slow pitch isn't T-ball either - the pitcher's have a definite impact. The batter's ability to place the ball has a definite impact that is not generally seen in fast pitch or baseball.

They are completely different games to umpire, play, or experience.

At the adult level, I enjoy working fast pitch above slow pitch. At the high shool level, I enjoy baseball above softball. You want to work for the best athletes you can and those are generally in baseball or fast pitch softball.
