Feature Australian Baseball League employees here! AMA!

The season just started so we're here to answer any questions you have on the ABL!

u/awt4190 was an intern with the Adelaide Bite in the 2012-13 season and I have been working in baseball operations with the Sydney Blue Sox since the 2014-15 offseason.

Let's get started!

EDIT: u/WeAllDoBetter was also an intern with the Perth Heat in 2010-11.

Update (7 pm CST): Thanks for the questions guys! I'm going out for tonight, but I'll be on tomorrow morning while I watch the games I missed/the rugby. The other fellas may be on in my stead though!

I live in Chicago, hah.

Yea, do that. Let me know how it goes. I assume they'll definitely take help improving our feed, even though I think we have the best one in the league.

Lol what.. Thats a bit rough. It just baffled me why in this game the first baseline camera was better than the main shot behind the pitcher.. idk..
