ok, so we’re not off to a screaming hot start but we’re not totally lost either.

For game one vs. Jerry’s Nuggets, we let a team playing with 9 (just ok) players stay in the game until the 5th. We then threw a couple crooked numbers up two innings in a row and made what had been a close game into a laugher victory. The game was played 5 guys and 5 girls, with Shawn McGivern filling in capably for Don and Paul. No pics or video from this game unfortunately.

Last night vs. Paine Wetzel, we fell victim to a patient team of hitters (they must have walked a 5 or 6 times, easy) and big boppers doing what they’re supposed to. I can’t recall someone hitting 3 home runs against us but their number three batter did just that. It started with a solo shot and ended with two devastating grand slams. Those runs pretty much put the game out of reach, even though it wasn’t so poorly played. We had a couple pop ups and a few strikeouts but did score 9 or 10 so offense wasn’t really the problem. What makes this worse we beat this team HANDILY last year. Oh well…. Don and Miles shared a batting spot, Erin filled in for Christine and there are a few pics and video that I’ll post this week.

On to next week, which is a later game, if I’m not mistaken. I’ll write up something about them when I post the pics/vids.
