Banana ball has it's own set of crazy rules... https://thesavannahbananas.com/banana-ball-rules-2/ I remember seeing King and His Court when I was a kid. When he pitched between his legs, he said to the crowd, "I have to be really careful with that pitch or I might hurt my ... knee. One time I hurt my knee so bad that I couldn't breathe." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They came to Dunkirk many many years ago and played my fathers softball team. My fathers team lost rather convincingly, they were amazing athletes and so much fun to watch.
