In a one inning game, we would have won 3 to ZIP!

Here are some highlights of our October 9th game: Despite being picked off at second base, Steph was anything but off her game. She did a stellar, relentless job at 1B. Adam's awesome plays at 3B and short earned him MVP once again. His foul catch at third was just one of the noteworthy achievements. Kelly's coverage of second base kept at least 2 Big Shots from getting home. Steve's ability to whip the ball fast to first in a split second and great hits lead to a much slower slaughter. Kim's awesome hitting gets better every game. She has resigned to wearing the same shirt on Fridays so Drew has a good aiming point. Speaking of Drew, not one walker! His pitching rocked and was able to field balls and send them to first in the nick of time proving the Dingman duo is second to none. Stu's fancy dancing on base had the team sweating bullets and on our toes, however, in the end....he made it. Great aggressive playing. Ori played left so hard and well that an injury brought him in to 3b during the second half. Jen's debut with P&W proved to her that despite her order at bat, her college days can come back to her like riding a bicycle. I think my errors may be noteworthy for this. Practice, anyone?

We're Baaack!

No, I didn't mean that we won, but the blog is back after a hiatus. Although we are 0-3 this season, we are having a blast and having so much fun with our new (and old) teammates. Here are the highlights of a very tough but fun game! We did very well in the field. Back to normal after a prolonged injury, Bill did not disappoint in left field. Unlike the last 2 seasons, Bill fielded every ball that came to him with grace and dignity. Danita hit solidly as usual but didn't have too much action in right. Her speed was flawless. Stu's polished firstbase plays impressed all the fans not to mention his seemingly effortless pop-up catch. Adam, making his debut as Parks and Wrecks pitcher, wins MVP. Having never pitched before, Adam dazzled everyone....including the UMP! It was great to have Kim back as she was a huge encourager to our virgin pitcher. Her dedication was evident when she ran like hell forgetting to drop the bat even when she hit a foul ball. Jess played a fierce second baseman and was able to stop just about every ball that came within her territory. Her wicked batting stance intimidated the opposing team. Kavita, who originally was not scheduled to play, pleasantly surprised everyone by changing plans at last minute. Good thing she showed because her meritorious catches as short center were unforgettable. In one inning she had two in a row - she was on fire. Steve did his usual outstanding job at shortstop. He even covered a play at 2nd base proving he is versatile and fast. Shari covered 3b with purpose(or position 5 as i learned tonight). She also hit the ball hard leading off the batting line-up for the evening. Michael, our 5th guy player and sub for the night, courageously played center field despite being a lifetime infielder. He hit the ball far and hard and did an outstanding job. Parks and Wrecks, we may have lost on paper, but we won in fun. Great job.
