What a great, extra inning game that the closing pitcher (who shall remain nameless) blew in the 8th! This one had it all! We had Mikey-D tackle the first basewoman by accident. Not only did he get to first base, but second base as well. Offensively it was a solid showing by everyone. Fine-Man smacked his (hopefully) first of many homers this season. On the defensive side Danny and Zeebster both had ridiculous, over the shoulder catches at key moments of the game. Due to the steep drop-off next to the 3rd base line, Zeebster's head appeared to pop up like a meerkat after the catch. This is what it looked like from the bench...
Snickelfritz wins the Spencer award this week. Oh, and welcome to the new guy who we may call Snickelsqueeze...(Because they are dating... so she's his "main squeeze"... get it? THESE ARE THE JOKES PEOPLE! Laugh or GTFO!) Anyway, the bottom of the 7th had a game saving play. One hell of a throw from newish guy Evan to Chocolate Thunder for a tag out at home. (Side note: I was told "We have Chocolate Thunder for style points, and you for utility"... I wept softly into my glove that evening) Yeah yeah... Thunder is SO COOL!
And speaking of cool, none other than 4 time Academy Award nominee Bradley Copper showed up to play. He had a solid game as reported on TMZ.
Game was tied 11-11 at the bottom of the 7th. We scored two runs at the top, but alas it was not enough and we lost by one run in the 8th... Post game commentary included Molicious recounting how a worker fell into a vat of Bumble Bee tuna and was processed. She thinks that perhaps the tuna she ate that day was dolphin safe, but not human safe.
