We lost our playoff game last week 24-23 in the 7th. Worst part was we lost due to time limit. Home team was batting when time ran out. Here's an action pic from a tournament a few months back with my baby. Easton CNT+

We lost ours as well.. But as normal, our coed team got killed. 18-3, called in the 4th.

That wraps up the season 0-10. Hard to win with a bunch of rookies.. It was a fun season though. We went to pizza and beer after last nights game. I always take the teams i put together out after the season.

Wow we lost too. It was a good game. We just couldn't hit if our life depending it. I was 1 for 3 with two RBI's so it was OK. We took 2nd for the league so it was a good season. I don't know what I am going to do with myself over the winter. Oh yeah hit the gym. Need to bulk up for next year.

I play all year round. Love playing for the Holiday and Winter ball.

Thankfully we play all year too. November-March is the best time to play down here.

I have a men's team set up and trying for a coed. Starts November 14th.. What will I do with these weeks off...

[CigarSquid]

Finally, our coed's 15 game losing streak ends! We won our first coed game. 24-22. helluva battle. It was so much fun.. and great to see everyone smile and see how it is to win.

My new bat came in. $300 bucks, picked up for $190.

Started the season on Sunday. We were up, then down, then we put our rally caps on. Ended up losing by one but it is all good. It was great to get out there again and get the rust off.

Played for years - nearly always infield. Something clicked in my early 40's and a little fear started to set in. No idea why, but it was rather sudden. Tentative fielding didn't work at all and I gave it up. Miss it sometimes....and still wonder why after playing since a toddler, my mind quit before my body. Maybe just a recognition that my reactions weren't up to the task...idk.

Had a 4pm game yesterday and we were winning 3 to 1. Then the skies opened up and started to rain. Argh. Game was called. I am OK with that ended up tweaking my quad. I was able to get a single before the game was called.

One of the guys went to swing and lost the bat in the field. Not so safe in the massive downpour plus it was cold. Now if it was warm, an all girls team wearing white shirts then maybe we would have kept playing!!

I've past my useful years on the diamond. If I were a horse, I'd be shot... Several times.

First game of the season rained out tonight. Guess I gotta wait a week to get back into the swing of things.

Sorry to hear it. Have you been to the batting cages? That helps get the rust of the old swing. Unless your swing is all rust, like mine!

We had great weather here and won our game tonight!

[CigarSquid]

Good job.

I didn't do as well as I should have on Tuesday. I was trying to hard to hit to right field. The pitcher for the other team, it was her first time pitching and I didn't want to get walked so I swung at garbage... 1 for 4, 2 ROE, RBI and Run.
