Game 1 Recap

Rowdy. Flash mob. Exhilarating. Loud. Disap-pointment.

These words describe our first game versus the hated MOMARS. You just have to dislike a ‘D’ League team that has shorts with their team logo.

Thanks to everyone for coming out. It was the biggest group that's ever turned out for any of our games. In the pasts we had always struggled with getting enough people out to field a legal (5 girls & 5 guys) team. I hope everyone will continue to show up as the season progresses. I tried putting our schedule on Google Calendar but I'm still figuring out how to use it. Anyways, we play at 9 PM this Thursday. If you can't make it, please contact me early in the week to get your absence excused. Please note that unexcused absences will pay a 1 beer fine (Kangaroo court, 2006).

The catcher on the opposing team told me, "It's like your team is having a party. Did you guys come on a bus together?" Then I said, "No, there's no bus. But we could use one if everyone keeps drinkin'."

We have a strong group of playas and will only get better as the weather warms up. There's only one problem. We don't have time to gradually get better. We have to win now. Karl made a bet that we'd have a .500 record this year.

Below is our first ever box score (thanks to Ryan).

We struck out 8 times in the first game. Don’t do that. Hit the ball. Maybe the other team will make an error. Then you will be a hero. If we keep striking out at this pace the Kangaroo court will be forced to levy a fine.
