THE TEAM - The Ouch

Well so far THE TEAM is not really close in C League.  There was that doubleheader in Brace Canyon Park.  Who knew we were going to have games in Texas.  Was that Texas?  It felt like Texas or Oklahoma or Atlanta.  Wait, it didn't feel like Atlanta.  Let's not get carried away.

The point is... that it was hot and sticky.

The last game was against a team that was way better than THE TEAM.  Think about how many errors they made.  You can't think of any can you.  (OK, secondbase had a grounder clang off his glove).  They hit a ton of nice clean line drives and there was nothing to do about those.  THE TEAM defense had more black holes than Chandra Deep Field South but it really didn't matter.  THE TEAM scoring 4 runs and hitting .385 is always going to be a loss.

The point is...  this is what is must feel like to spoon in a mouthful of unrefrigerated mayonaise.  (That was the worst thing I could think of outside of the humidity in Atlanta)

Let's look back in history:

This blog is filled with gooey complements for Lou and Peter.

They are the all-time leaders in everything.  Lou has 101 career Home Runs.  Peter has 68 career Home Runs.  THE TEAM has only hit 236 Home Runs ever.  Lou has 478 hits.  Peter has 451.  Nobody is even close to these guys.  Check this out:  They both have exactly 385 career RBIs.  Only two other players have passed 200 RBIs and these guys are knocking on the door for 400.

The point is... through the ups and downs and wins and losses, those two have been money in the bank.  So go Lou!  Go Peter!

and

GO THE TEAM!!!

I am happy to sign autographs for a nominal fee. Honestly, I play well, because I have fun with all of you and I want ALL of us to win EVERY time. I owe it to The Team to play well. It's been a pleasure...
