Not that I expected us to get shut out. I just didn't know what to expect. This is our first go-round with softball, and though we've practiced a few times, I don't think any of us felt ultra-confident. It didn't help that two of our players were out of town and one of our players was hurt. So, considering those less-than-ideal factors, I think we did incredibly well. We didn't get our offense going until about the third inning, but after that we staged a few solid rallies and got some runs across. By the end of the game, we had 12 on the board. Not bad, right? But, since I got shelled while on the mound for the first four innings, the other team had racked up 16. Yeah, it was a high-scoring affair.
Still trying to figure out the vibe of the league. Some of the opposing players we faced on Sunday seemed like real dicks, but they may have been cranky because they were playing in the second game of a double header. Whatever. We had a fun time and I even struck a dude out. He should get more credit for that than me, though. I think he might have been drunk.
Man, I hadn't had a mouth full o' sunflower seeds in 15 years. It's good to be back.
