Please answer truthfully.

High School, but I've played a few semi-pro games here and there too.

I selected Pony because it was the closest. Mine was called senior league, and it was for 13-15 year olds. I went out for high school ball, but I got hurt, and the coaches were douches. So I ended up quitting before the season started.

Pony League was as far as I went, but I was good enough to play HS ball. I was far better at tennis, though -- I was #1 doubles and went to state in '92. I would have been a pretty average player on my high school's baseball team. If they weren't both Spring sports, I would've played both.

This was a brilliant idea, Butch.

The only thing I've ever been good at is lifting weights. When I was a kid, I was a fast runner, but those days are ancient history. Oh, and ping pong--I was pretty good at that but haven't played in a long time.

I played through Little League. I was on our league All Star team, but I preferred soccer and neither sport particularly cared for players to be splitting time in the summer.

Junior/peewie league was all for me. I split between that and soccer but was always better at the latter so I stuck with that through HS. It didn't stop me from playing softball and street baseball with the other neighborhood kids growing up. I haven't played in a while though.

Little League, from 9-12. I wasn't too bad. Played 2B and was the leadoff hitter, so I had some good speed. Would've went farther with High School ball and such, but started smoking pot at 12 and lost interest in everything except partying, girls, and then skateboarding later on. Didn't get back into baseball until after my car accident in 99, but then I could only spectate, although I've always wanted to check these guys out:

Two years of high school ball. Like Rok and Andy, I then chose to concentrate on soccer because I was better at it.

Basically same for me. I was on the all star team almost every year until the latter year of Senior League when suddenly everyone was a foot and a half taller than me. Then I was pretty bad.

We've already got 9 that played HS ball. Let's field a team.

Same here

Played my freshman year as a catcher and started a lot of varsity games. I had a plus arm and could hit for decent power. After that year I was completely burnt on baseball and never played again.

Why isn't "never played organized ball" on the poll?
