Victory is Mine!

Well, ours. We won the game 12-9 in 5 1/2 innings. It was a pretty good game. We played really good defense for the first time since I’ve been playing this season. No balls got past us in the outfield which is usually where we suffer. Somebody puts a shot past us and the bases empty…but not today. I didn’t have to run around much in the outfield either, which I was grateful for.

I had a single and a double, with a catch to end the game in left center field. It would have been more of a blowout, but they got at least 4 runs on walks. Under the rules of the league, each batter starts with a ball and a strike, so 3 balls is a walk. It’s a coed league where batters alternate male/female, so if you walk a guy to get to a girl, the guy goes to second and the girl has the choice to bat or take first base. That happened several times cause our normal pitcher wasn’t there. But we still won, so all is well. It felt good to win and know we played well.

So that was a happy addition to my day. I’m hoping it doesn’t rain so I can grill out with some people later. I’m looking forward to my steak. Until next time.

Currently Playing: Justin HulseyAll the Way Down

I’ve seen so many things just come and go
And I’m tired of living my life like just another ghost
‘Cause what you say and what you do might as well be in the past
Well me, I think I’m gonna take a different road, I’m gonna make this dream last
And if I wake up lying face down in the ground
I hope you’ll see I tried my best all the way down
