This was a great game. There was a massive thunderstorm in the early afternoon, which scared off the cricket players, who had the field marked out. When we took the field we played near the cricket pitch (removing their stumps, etc. to place our bags. Indiana said something about using the wood for a BBQ). We then played. After the 4th inning we had to shift the bases due to a mud pit at home, but it only helped a little. The TWOS took massive leads throughout the game. Once they had the TWOS at mercy, but the Say Hey Kid scored to send it to another inning. Finally, in the 7th, the ONES came storming back and got the score to 17-16, but just couldn't tie it, due to an amazing snag by Heidi, who caught a scorching line drive that was already past her (Seven hit the ball). The TWOS had an eight-run lead in the ninth. It could have been more, but the Say Hey Kid caught a ball that was uncatchable (Indiana hit it). It was caught at full run with the glove scrapping the ground. In the bottom of the 9th the ONES were down by 8 but there was a comeback (almost) for the ages. The first three batters (Male Jo, Nigey-pooh, and The Generalissimo) hit solo homers. Seven and Kyle II followed with triples, and then Rickey hit a double. 5 runs scored, no one out. But, the ONES settled down. Only Rickey scored before they shut the TWOS down.
NOTES: 1) Good to see the Monfort Men. They played well; 2) With the wet field, there was lots of sliding. Of course, The Cheetah had a nice one. But, the best was Heidi bringing up a huge spray at 2B. Clement will be spitting mud for days; 3) The Say Hey Kid had some great catches out there; 4) Nigey-pooh's 9th inning homer was huge. Longest I've ever seen him hit.; 5) Bar tab at Joe's was $205
