GETTING INTO THE SWING

There's nothing quite as beautiful as a messy scorebook and, boy, did we have a messy scorebook on Monday after our game versus the Honey Badgers, who we badgered all over Edgeley 4 to the tune of 18-8. And the tune went something like this: whappa-whappa-uh huh-uh huh-smacka-smacka-yeah-yeah-sorry pitcha-sorry pitcha-didn't-mean-to-almost-gitcha-gitscha.
Our records are regrettably a little hazy on this, but it's probably been a while since we batted 19 people in the first inning, scored 13 runs and then coasted to the finish. Manager Paul of the Badgers noted that they won the game after the first inning, 8-5, and while that is mathematically true, the 13-0 first inning counts as well.
On the evening, we recorded 29 hits, according to the able book of Ron Goldwyn, and were led by four hits each from Steve Lynch, Brian Donlen and George Miller, who also had four RBIs. The RBI king, with five, was Jimmy V. whose first-inning grand slam was a highlight. Three hits each for Courtney Sams, who was pissed off after a trying day at work, and Chip Proctor, who didn't really talk about work, so we don't know.
Every player who got more than one at-bat had at least one hit, Yaz pitched a great game and manager Nevins got all 17 players into the game and to the plate, which ain't easy. (Although easier when you score 13 in the first inning.) Jon Snyder unveiled DroneCam, and, well, it has promise.
Onward. We play NCC on Monday and will try to rewrite their amendments as well.
