(from Craig) - The hogger faced off against "The Dogs", which we were told won the C league in the summer session. Our pitcher "DF", being the seasoned veteran he is, tried to get there players to swing at junk and they just weren't buying it. We gave up a few runs each and every inning and didn't combat those runs with runs of our own. This team was solid and had no problem using the 2 home run limit.
Between games, since we were 10 runned in the seventh, the boyz took some grounders and fly balls. We were feeling sharp. After supplying a catcher, we started the second game. As the evening progressed the field conditions got worse (the fog, lumpy infield, and dirty ball) and that made it difficult to make plays in the infield. After a failed rover attempt by the coach, the hogger made a late 9-run push in the top of the 7th, sending the game to the bottom of the inning only to be let down by some crafty hitting by a bunch of weasels.
Next week look out, the boys are starting to heat up. The one-pitch league is leaving mixed feelings. Grant was quoted saying, "The way I'm hitting, I know my average isn't going to go down." Which was followed up by the a few members stating that "It's pretty hard to go down when you're batting .250." We'll leave it at that. (Overall: 0-2)
