New and Improved Parks and Wrecks 16-4

Parks and Wrecks couldn't even finish the game because we slaughtered Ball Me Maybe by the bottom of the fifth. With 5 awesome, new players on the roster and 11 oldies but goodies, we had an exciting and eventful first game of the fall season. Here are some highlights: Our newest pitcher, Nicole or "Co-co" didn't walk one "Ball Me Maybe" opponent and struck several of them out! Her poise and grace on the pitcher's mound is equally matched when she is holding a bat! Although not entirely new to Parks and Wrecks because he's subbed for us before, Dave played a stellar first half at short stop catching a memorable, hard hit line drive seemingly effortlessly. Also, not exactly a newbie to P&W, Dottie didn't disappoint. Her ability to catch any ball at 1B and keep her foot on the base, was impressive. Although Kim's entourage made up most of our fanbase for the evening, being on "stage" didn't impact her game. She hit the ball solidly and ran hard. She also was the pinch runner for Danita and I believe was responsible for scoring the first run of the game! Tim, who also brought his share of fans to the game, did not disappoint! He hit the ball hard and far responsible for multiple RBIs. Michael rounded the bases a few times and will be most remembered for his TRIPLE! Go MB! Danita's patience and perserverance paid off when she waited and waited for her pitch. A walk is always as good as a hit and we all know she can hit now we know she has the patience. It paid off. Steve ALWAYS knows what to do when the bases are loaded and he is at bat. His famous grand slam had the team howling. Kelly's stunts at short center were noteworthy. She covered 2nd base well except when she was covering the wrong base. Sheri's extra time off this summer traveling the world didn't slow her down. Her running/hitting/fielding was faster and better than ever. Bill redeemed himself by not letting one ball even look like it was going to get missed or dropped if it was anywhere near his domain. Great game Parks and Wrecks. We are off to a glowing start. Looking forward to having he Dingman Duo back and Jay U's debut on September 5 @ 9pm!
