Tournament Preview
2021 Seattle Dual bracket and team info links
The Seattle "Dual" Major will start with the Christan Dowling memorial service and home run derby on Wednesday night at 7 PM Pacific time. The 1st dual tournament then starts Thursday on the 5 – 300 foot fields with all 24 teams playing as many as 4 games on Thursday. The first tournament continues Friday with the championship set for 4:45 PM Pacific time. The second dual tournament actually starts while the first one is finishing on Friday and continues all day on Saturday with the championship set for Sunday at 11:30 AM. In the second dual there will be 25 teams and most of the winner's bracket games and a few games at the end of the loser's bracket will be played on the baseball field RR #1 with its 327-367-362-360-331 home run fence distance and use the Dudley Stadium ZN ball with unlimited home runs. A majority of the loser's bracket games will be played on field #3 with unlimited home runs and the Pro M ball. The bases on both fields for the 2nd dual are set at a whopping 80 feet!
There is also a nice 14 team Women's Dual Major which begins on Thursday evening.
All games should be live on USSSALive.com.
I will have direct links to each field on the SoftballCenter chat page.

Shea's Picks
This weekend the Seattle “Christan Dowling Derby Dual” major only has 14 Nationwide Conference USSSA teams in attendance including 3 major, 0 AA, 6 A, 11 B, and 3 C teams. The Conference USSSA point leader and #1 overall seed Resmondo/Smash It/Menosse/Thunder is the favorite to win. The other teams looking to upset the favorite are: SmashItSports/Newbreed/TDB/RF/BD/T3 and
Dan Smith/Proton.
Dual I Predictions: The final 4 undefeated should be: Dan Smith versus SIS and Competitive Edge versus Resmondo. I predict the favorite Resmondo to beat Competitive Edge and SIS to beat Dan Smith making the undefeated game matching Smash It versus Resmondo. In the loser’s bracket I predict teams that drop down to win their next game.
Final Picks for Dual I:
1. Resmondo/Smash It/Menosse/Thunder
2. SmashItSports/Newbreed/TDB/RF/BD/T3
3. Dan Smith/Proton
4. CompetitiveEdge/OlmitoHeat/Adiktiv
5. Bay Area Legends/Easton
Classic Glass/Easton
Dual II Predictions: The second dual is hard to make predictions not knowing which teams will get bit by the injury bug in the first dual. So there should be a lot of upsets and I am going to pick some of the teams that did not do as well in the first dual since they will be rested.
Final Picks for Dual II:
1. Dan Smith/Proton
2. SmashItSports/Newbreed/TDB/RF/BD/T3
3. Resmondo/Smash It/Menosse/Thunder
4. Bay Area Legends/Easton
5. Classic Glass/Easton
THUNDER/CHOSEN/COMPETITIVE EDGE/SOG
OldScout pollers went with Resmondo to win Dual #1
