Mediocre day at the plate

May 22nd, 2005

Is it possible to have a bad day playing softball. I mean this like the saying “the worst day golfing is better than the best day working.” This morning I got up and headed back to Renton. I quickly got on my uniform and headed to the game. I did not get to bed when I should have and I was tired. We had three games. I was having a hard time hitting the ball. I hit it, but I was not making many basehits. We won, so that is the good that came out of the game.

We got our game done quickly so we had more than an hour and a half to wait until the next game. I sat by the field where our next game was going to be. I then tried to get a little sleep. But it was not very comfortable. I did get some rest, but no sleep. Then as our game time get close we went out there and played the Diamonds. They are an okay team. We battled with them and won. Then we went to the next game. It was not good at first. They took a lead and we were flat. The bottom of our order was keeping us in the game. Finally in one inning we broke it open and took a seven run lead. We held on to the lead as their first baseman got hurt. So rather than pulling an outfielder, they had the second baseman try to cover the whole area. That did not work out for them. We went on to win that game and we are still in second place in the league.

After the games I went home and got there just in time for dinner. I sat down and ate. Then I went to my room to watch TV and get some stuff done on the computer. I needed to build a couple CD’s for the football games. I put a few songs together so and cut some down so they would start where I wanted them to. I also got the National Anthem on it.
