Game 1 - Balls Deep

It's that time of year again, time for me to strike out on balls and get thrown out at first. Oh well, I stil enjoy taking the field and trying to play a little softball. I am playing on a men's team in the Coralville Recreation D-League. Our name is Big League Wood and our slogan is "We are STIFF competition."

We had our first game tonight against the Jacobsen boys team, Balls Deep. We jumped on them early racking up 5 runs in the first inning and never looking back. Although, the game got a little closer in the 7th we managed to regroup and pull out the victory. GO TEAM!

My performance was less than stellar. Of 4 batting opportunities, I struck out twice (chasing balls I had no business swinging at) and twice being thrown out by millimeters at first. I still had a lot of fun, so it's all good. On to game two next Wednesday.
