Last night's softball game was the kind I love to play. A real barn burner for the first couple of innings, followed by our team running the blitzkrieg style offense for the remainder of the game. This is the second game in a row we have been up to bat, piling on the runs, when the umps stepped in and called the game. At the end of the game, I walked over to the scorekeeper to ask the final count and he responded, "You want my best guess or the actual count?"I said, "The actual count, please."
He looked at his score book, added a couple of things up and said, "17-5 or so."
Our defense was a little rusty the first couple innings which is the only reason they managed five runs on us. I think I need to just put together a lineup and run with it so that everyone gets comfortable in their positions. I may fool around with that next week.
Speaking of next week's game, we play the early bird special at 6:30 p.m. against a team which may prove to be our toughest rival...the Luck Dragons. Next week is also Cesar Chavez day and all of us should have the day off so there may be a BBQ of some sorts in the park before the game if anyone is interested. The Hurners are on beers next week and they have a head start thanks to Amy.
In other news, the Suck Dragons won impressively last night, beating a wet paper bag 19-2...just kidding Sucks.
Word, did luck dragons get an estimated score or a real tally of their performance?
