Game 2 : ONES 11 : TWOS 12 (9 innings)

Public holiday games are always fun. We start at 10am when the weather is not too hot, the fields are empty and we can usually manage to squeeze in a full 9inning double-header. We don't lose the sunlight, and no one whines about having to go home or to be somewhere or meet someone for dinner/movie.
Friday was Hari Raya Haji, and as customary, the SAS crowd gathered at the NUS field for a great public holiday game. Ironically, we started the game by 1030am, even though it's morning and most people are half-awake, yet we can't do this on a saturday afternoon at 230pm.
Both teams were exceptionally balanced, with a good mix of infielders and outfielders on both teams. Bats were also fairly distributed, and the two games turned out to be immensely fun.
The games went by very fast, with many 1-2-3 innings, and this reporter could not keep up with the speed of the side-overs to cover the games properly. Thus, I'll just put up the box scores for the games. This reporter apologies for his lack of commentary.
