Recap Game'07-9: Scoresheets | Play-by-Play Summary* | Photos

*To read the play-by-play game summary, you will have to learn Sam's syntax for describing the play-by-play action.

The game went like clockwork, with the Turkeys playing some of the best defense ever seen. There wasn't a single inning where they were able to score at will. Our bats, on the other side of it, were working efficiently. As a result we were soon up by 10 runs and having to accept an out at the begining of our at-bat. Soon we were up by 15 runs having to take two outs at the beginng of that inning. It was Tim's unfortunate position to be the one and only batter that inning. Gerardo once again showed that youth makes up for lack of experience, being strong both on defense and offense. Everyone had an opportunity to show their skills, and there were barely a handful of the typical C-league errors.

After the game, there were 13 of us heading off to a dinner of pizza, soda and beer. We had a great time and got to know our new teammates...and they got to know us. I'm already planning on their continued participation, having added them to our players page. During dinner, Maggie was either called by...or called Justine, who had played with us last year. Mark jumped on the phone and begged Justine to quit what she was doing and come to California for some softball fun. We all miss her playing with us. But alas, she's busy working with I Robot where she is also playing softball...but surely not having as much fun as us.

The box score and the offense/defense sheets will be added to this report in the next days. Until then you all get ready for the next game. We'll see you there!!
