Playoff Bracket

Here is the playoff bracket...  Looks like we get to pay back the Amish for beating us a couple weeks ago and also for all of thier crappy furniture and ugly beards.  First game is at 8:10 on Field #5.

Week 12 Recap / Scores

It was our last chance to put it all together before championship immortality is on the line and I have to say we played pretty well.  Game 1 was a much anticipated battle that would determine who got the coveted #3 seed.  Unfortunatly the Silver Bullets pulled ahead for an early 8-2 lead after 2, but we tightened things up in the following innings and really slowed them down.  Our offense fought back little by little, but heading into the top of the 7th we were still down a run.  Things didn't look good after getting 2 quick outs, but an amazing triple by Tom sparked a 5 hit, 4 run rally that gave us the lead heading into the bottom of the inning. An awesome defensive play by Fosmo that is simply impossible to describe with words capped off the game, leaving the Silver Bullets shocked and devasted.  Final Score: 16-13

Game two was very, very different but nearly as much fun. A 12 run first inning that included 2 HR's from Dan got us off to a nice start.  9 more in the 4th sealed the up the victory as we nearly shut out the down trodden Wild Turkeys.  Final Score: 21-3

It was a nice way to finish up the regular season and really proved that we have a great chance of winning our 2nd Title in the last 4 years. Here are the rest of the scores from last night:

Week 11 Recap - Fred Smoot Edition

"70% of the earth is covered by water, the rest is covered by us three".  With only Hof, Brian and Myself in the outfield, we stole one of Fred Smoots lines and adopted it on Tuesday night...

Due to some last minute circumstances, we were left to play a doubleheader with only 9 guys (for the second week in a row by the way)... But even with less than ideal circumstances our team put in 2 really solid performances.

In game one we took on a 13 man Doublwide squad who was out for payback after we beat them twice already this year.  Down 6-11 after 4 innings, we fought back little by little with the help of Hof's most amazing catch ever.  A Wunderlich HR and some solid D sent the game to OT were we scored 1 run in the top of the inning and held them to none, giving us a very hard fought and rewarding 14-13 victory.

Game 2 was another battle...this time against the Donkey Mob.  After a big 5 run second and our defense playing awesome again it looked as though we may somehow be able to snatch two wins on a night when the odds were stacked against us.  Unfortuantly, our bats got cold in the middle innings and despite taking the lead with 3 runs in the top of the 7th they singled us to death in the bottom of the inning and scored the winning run on a sac fly.   Final score: 8-9

All in all, it was good to see the fight we had, and if we can play this well shorthanded, we have to like our chances when we have our full compliment of playa's in da playoffs yo.  We Comin.
