Game one was plagued by errors, Juan couldn’t find the strike zone and the Elks won easily 13-6. Game two was the direct opposite, a well played and close game. The M-Picks prevailed 4-1 in extra innings, Big Joe pitched lights out and we witnessed one of the best defensive plays ever, a dazzling over the shoulder catch behind first base by second baseman Doug that garnered a righteous outstanding ovation from the crowd. What a great catch!
We also witnessed a terrific throw from right fielder Rob to gun down lackadaisical Pat at first base who failed to remember, among other things, the purpose of the safety bag while plowing down the writer during the process. Just a quick refreshing course Pasquale… the orange portion of the bag is located in foul territory and is what the baserunner steps on when running towards first base; the white portion is used by the first baseman. Got it!
Next week we’ll begin collecting for 2009 field’s permit so those of you who haven’t done so yet please bring in twenty-five bucks, or cash, which is almost as good as money… as Yogi would say.
In attendance today: Joe 21, Pat, Mike II, Jeff, Felix, Danny. Doug, Jonah, Scott, Russ, Little Joe, Erwin, Tommy, Matt, Nelson, Rob, OD, Juan, Angelo, Kenny, Alec, Big Joe, Artie, Roly and the writer.
See you guys next week!
