Snakes and Standings

So for those of you who were unable to make it out to Wednesday's game (which was a lot of you), let me tell you it was areal nail biter. First off, we had JUST enough players to field a team, and we didn't manage to even pull that together until 7 o'clock! whoops! Luckily the other team were waiting on a player too. Once the game began at 7, we were just trying to play hard, and NOT GET INJURED!  Our opponents were "Snakes on a Field" who were tied with us for first place last year and also happened to be the team that we never played once either in the regular season or the playoffs! They were good. And our teams were evenly matched and close in score the entire game. We had a couple of minor injuries; Evan took a hard throw to the temple, and Wexler pulled some leg muscles, but we kept going strong! Going into the final inning, the DangerCats were up by 5 runs, we had home team advantage so just needed to shut them down to take the win. Unfortunately, they scored 5 runs on us. We had to fight for our win. Dave Terp got on base, then so did Wexler, moving Dave to second, and then Evan went up to bat and hit a pretty solid ball into left field. Dave did some risky base running and made it home just ahead of the throw to home, securing the win! We were all really excited, and so was Dave once he learned the score and realized that we won.  In the end the DangerCats took it with a final score of 13-12. Exciting baseball! That was a hard fought and well earned win Cats. Congrats on the standings!!

PLEASE NOTE: Next week's game is TUESDAY, JUNE 19th, at MCLEARY PARK moved from Thursday. See ya then!
