Game 2 : ONES 4 : TWOS 5

Another hardluck old school game with rain that started at 1pm and stopped at 2.20pm. 2.30pm, only Guppy is present. 2.45pm, 6. 3pm, 9. Looks like the game is gonna get called. Cellphones are frantically whipped out and numbers dialled to try and get more numbers. 3.10pm, 14 Finally!!
Opening a brand new ball, and a brand new bat. Though short on numbers and on a damp soggy field, the game must go on, and it did. The ball got slimy, the errors kept coming, the hits did not. Rube stole the show with 2 homeruns, but TS stopped him from getting 4 by making 2 outstanding catches deep in right field. Guppy was running the bases like his wife was pregnant again, stealing bases on infield plays with aplomb. Of course the highlight of the day was DY appearing. Pity his visit this time was so shortlived, and he could only get one game (which had poor attendance) before he has to return to Boston. Ironically, there were no cries of "DY would have got that" because there were no plays for DY to get.
