Champions

Last night we had our playoffs for the summer season.  We played a double header and WON!!!

We are the champions for the summer season. YAY!!!

It was definitely stressful.  The first game started and we were doing good, had 3 run lead for the first three innings.  Unfortnately for us when the other team has poor sportsmen ship we tend to lose our focus.  My team was on the field, our shortstop Joe went to make a play second base, he had the ball and was ready to get the runner out.  Instead of sliding, the runner bulldozed Joe, causing Joe to roll over the runners back.  The runner then push his shoulder up causing Joe to do complete 360 in the air falling to the ground, not moving.  No problem things happen, what upset all of us was that the runner kept running, and never said sorry, or check to see if Joe was okay.  After a few seconds Joe sat up and was carried off the field.  He hurt his knees really bad.  He is okay now, just really sore.  It just really upset all of us that the other team seemed unphased by the fact that one of our players got hurt.  It was really tight at the end, we were up to bat and the time was out.  So this was hit, however this inning ended meant the end of the game.  We were down by two runs, everyone standing up, we had two outs, you could feel the tension.  We ended up getting 2 more runs.  Now it was there turn at bat, we had to hold them there. It seemed like a long inning, but we did it!

The next game wasn't as stressful, but it wasn't easy either. But we won. It was really exhuasting, but we were all super excited at the end of the night. we get one week off, then we start again.  I'm going to learn pitching,  Cory our coach really wants a girl pitcher because we can utilize the the field more, and I'm one of the only girls that really isn't afraid of the ball, with quick reflexes.  So I'm going to start practicing this week, if I get the hang of it then I will be the pitcher for our games.  I'm excited.

What To Say?

I've really enjoyed reading Katrina's posts, and being able to read about her days. So I've decided to do the same.  Not sure exactly what I'll write about, or how often I will write, but I do hope you all enjoy it.

So let's start this week off with a little catch up.

I'm still working at spag, anywhere from 4 to 6 days.  This week it's 6, and boy am I tired.  But I really wanna work as much as can now before Christmas hits, so I can have time to enjoy my favorite season.  I start school in October, just a few classes at Community College to get me back in the grove of things.  I'm still playing softball, which is a lot of fun.  I am so happy I chose to start playing again.  Not only does it get me out, and able to play a sport, but I've also met a lot of cool people, which makes me really happy.  My friends and I have gotten into a nice routine, softball, poker, dinners, and fun.  A few of us went to Havasu a couple of weeks ago, that was a lot of fun. It was my first time going, and I can't wait to go again.I've also started playing my first season of Fantasy Football.  Last week I didn't do to well.  Our League has a totally of ten teams, and I'm the only girl.  We all went to this pizza place for our draft.  It was a lot of fun. However, all of the guys were upset because, I, the only girl, had picked one of the top teams.  expect for the fact that Brady was my QB,  Which if anyone saw last week's game, you know that Brady is now out for the rest of the season....me so sad:(  But thanks to dad, I've done a little rearranging and I should still do pretty good, Let's hope.  The guys even had a bet going on. The first person to lose to me has to wear a dress to softball, but when the bet was proposed, some of the guys thought it would have been a better bet if i wore a dress(since i don't really wear them that often) .

Well hopefully that catches you up to date.
