REM May 5

For those of you who were not there last night ... we lost 17-14.

...Psycho missed the game tying field goal with :03 left on the clock.

Steve Reckart pitched a great game ... walking only one.

Once again .. we all hit the ball.

We threw out a guy at the plate twice ( same guy in different innings)

Just a few reminders:

1 - Next game Monday at 9pm on Whiston

2 - Dont forget, MVP softball day at the Paintball Park is Sat June 14 beginning at 10am
and running til running can no longer be had. $25 gets you all your rental gear plus a bag
of ammo. ( 500 shots) This is a way to thank yer sponsor for shelling out the money to play
softball. And it is "the more the merrier." In other words, anyone you bring with you gets the
same discount. So bring people!

...and Shane and Ryne ... you are on the softball team now...capice? :-)

3 - Thursday July 3rd is BBQ night at Dan Barnes. ie: The Barnes Lake Ampitheatre!
It's outdoor karaoke, lotsa food and all types of beveridges.
Bring yer Red White & Blue, something to eat and yer wiffle ball ability.
We're all ( hopefully) off Friday July 4th, so make plans to be there.
It's also a family event, so bring significant amounts of family.
Directions are simple and will be distributed as we near the date.

2008 Season Begins

2008 Season Begins...

MVP Ballers vs. Bucket Heads Pub 1

The 2008 Season has arrived !!

On a complete swamp of mud & muck we scored 8 in the bottom of the 1st
last night & never looked back en route to a 18-3 win in 4 innings. ( 15 run rule after 4)

EVERYONE hit the ball ....excpet for Psycho & Steve R who did not get
an at bat because of the shortened game.

But - Psycho kept the book and Steve made the final out.

Arthurs is 1-0 despite walking the first batter of the year!
But at the plate he "burnt" the so-called left centerfield twice.

Newcomer Dan "Who" Hardesty led off in the bottom of the first with
a bloop single to shallow center and that opened the flood gates.

For what it's worth, Evans drank 4 beers in the parking lot afterward.
There was no 8pm game, and by the time 9pm rolled around , the rain
cancelled the rest of the game.

It would have been nice to have Dan Barnes available to end this miserable game in 3 innings instead of 4... had it not been for the major life/season ending, freak crab fishing accident he suffered on the Bering Sea during last October's red crab season.

See ya next week! ( Monday 6pm on Ogden)

Is it Softball yet?

Alright it is January 9th and I'm ready to hit the field. Football is over with, basketball is in full force, time to hit the field.

Although I have heard that we are losing our Coach to the University of Michigan.
