Playing softball again!

July 10th, 2005

Because the softball tournament was rained out I decided to head to Renton early to play softball with the co-ed team. It was a good thing I did. The other pitcher did not show up. It rained a little bit so we got all wet, then it stopped. We were able to play both games. I was a little rusty pitching, but I warmed up as we went along.

Hitting was ugly was well. I could not hit the ball very well. Having not played in a month probably hurt my play, pitching, and hitting. I made a few errors and it was trying at times. But I was playing softball so I could not be too upset with anything.

The first game we lost four to three. Then we went into game two. It was a higher scoring game. We were up by a few runs and then they caught up. We came to the last inning and we were tied going into the top of the inning. We were hitting with two outs and me on deck, I knew what that mean. We would get the third out. For some years, when I am on deck with two outs, the person before me tends to get the final out. I don’t know why, but it happens a lot. It happened already today, and I expected it again. Sure enough it did.

We had to get three up and three down to go to extra innings, however, they got two hits in a row. With out being able to walk the next guy, my first pitch was crushed to deep right-center. It was caught for the first out, but there was no way we were going to get the ball in for the out at home in time. They won, again, by one run.

I went home and dinner was served. I ate then took a shower because I was dirty from a play I was making where I lost my balance and fell down.

I caught up on QaF and I also watched the new Family Guy tonight. I was cracking up at the scene where Peter had a contest to see who would throw up last after drinking syrup of ipecac.

I found my way to bed at almost three in the morning.
