About Sal Guerriero

I started pitching “Medium” pitch softball, or what the ASA calls 10 Man Modified, on Staten Island, NY in the New York City Park League as a teenager back in the 60’s. I have now been pitching for 50 years and still have a passion for the game.
When it comes to the pitching rules there are very few others that have my experience. I have been used at Umpire clinics, clarified the Pa. ASA pitching rules, and presented to the National ASA Modified Committee on several occasions.
My goal is to preserve and promote the traditional style of Softball regardless if it is ASA or not. If you have a League or Tournament (strict 10 Man pitching rules as described here) you want displayed on this site, let me know and I will add it. Read more about this site...
