McLovin Kicks Ass

Tampa, FL - Don't Touch My Balls may have won the Breaker division playoffs but that may have only been because they didn't have to face off against McLovin. McLovin's numbers were decimated by the fact that each member of the team received about 5 invitations to 8,000 weddings all happening in the same weekend. McLovin could only scrape 6 players together to play in the tournament.

Forced to forfeit against the Relocators the McLovin team indicated that they still wanted to play for fun. Players from other teams offered to "help out" and play for the short sided squad but McLovin insisted that they wanted to kick ass with only 6 people. They did grab 1 player to play catcher but other than that it was just the 6 brave McLovin players in a defensive alignment that reminded many in attendance of the population density of the state of Montana.

Whether the Relocators were too confident against the short sided team or McLovin's defense is just that fucking solid, the Relocators were unable to get any more than 1 base runner all game long, and that ended up being a home run when I, though apparently dominant as a pitcher, was either too lazy or too tired to cover third when our third baseman (Garrett) shifted to cover second.

McLovin scored as many runs (6) as they had players show up and probably could have scored more but with all the running around in the heat were too exhausted to run anymore. The final score was 6-1 with McLovin victorious but with the Relocators advancing in the playoffs ripe for slaughter.

McLovin will join the ranks of the old Balls Deep team in the Bayshore division in the Winter of 2006 as one of the greatest short handed teams ever. In that season a Balls Deep team with only 7 players played the Shaky Alibis. After going down by 7 runs and losing one player to a sprained ankle and another player suffering a dislocated finger while sliding home were able to come back and win by 8 runs in the last week of the regular season. I had the honor of playing on both teams.

Rumor has it that Don't Touch My Balls were quite relieved that they did not have to face McLovin, of course rumors aren't always completely accurate.

The McLovin All Stars are Garrett, Nicole, Laura, Brad, Anna and Ty (that's me).
