I don't get it, but I always play twice as good when Greg and Elise come to my games! Even if the other team only had eight players (and two outfielders), I will take a little credit for my home runs, in our upset playoff victory. My line: 2-2, BB, 2HR, 3R, 5RBI.

I forgot to write about last week... a rain-shortened game that ended in a 4-4 tie after five innings. I did enjoy throwing a runner out at third... that always feels good! My line: 1-3.

The game tonight was not nearly as good. After a 16-run 2nd inning, we were just waiting for the mercy rule! I was fortunate enough to hit a homerun (inside-the-park, of course) to the right-center gap, and have a nice diving catch, even if it was a 24-5 loss. My line: 3-3, HR, 2R, RBI.

Last night's game started out promising, with lots of offense, as the score was tied 10-10 after three innings. Then, the opposition batted around twice in the fourth and we went down 1-2-3. It was pretty ugly by the end! My line: 3-3, 2R.

I forgot to write about Thursday's game ... nothing too special, although it was the first time I hit a "double" in a while. Ok, fine, it was a pop-up that the fielder couldn't get to! My line: 3-4, 2 2B, R, 2RBI.

Big defense and big bats ... who knew? We looked great in a 15-3 win, that featured an usual walk-off triple then Ken actually walked out. My line: 1-3, 3B, 3R, 2RBI.
