Week 7 Recap

Well we are in the stretch now. Only one week left to play so every game has some serious implications in the standings.

At 7pm Quit Yer Pitchin took to field 1 against Booze on First. This game was not true to form for Booze on First. The team in black usually has some rock solid defense but everyone can be allowed a night off, right? I'm told that Booze on First made lots of stupid errors in this game and they are still looking for their first victory of the season. Quit Yer Pitchin won 2-1.

Field 2 saw a pretty epic matchup between 99 Problems and the Seminoles. 99 Problems got off to an early lead in the bottom of the first inning by scoring 2. The next few innings saw nothing but defense locking down on both sides. In the top of the 5th inning the Seminoles scored 2 to tie it up. As a crowd of interested players from other teams started to gather 99 Problems was able to score again to take the lead by 1 in the bottom of the 5th. Things were looking tense on the Seminoles sideline and they must have felt that they were prime for their first loss of the season but were somehow able to score 3 more runs in the top of the 6th and 99 Problems wasn't able to counter. Seminoles won 5-3.

On Field 3 we had Masterbatters taking on a different looking Asstastic Balls. Asstastic Balls decided to turn back the clock and wore their old lime green t-shirts from about 3 seasons ago before the color was discontinued. Back in the old lime green days Asstastic Balls didn't win an awful lot so perhaps they were trying to bring themselves some bad luck. It worked. After a mostly defensive battle Masterbatters took this one 2-0.

At 8pm Balls and Dolls squared off against We've Got The Runs. Balls and Dolls didn't want to do a chugg off so this game had to get going with Rock, Paper, Scissors. That played right into the hands of WGTR's Steve who is the self proclaimed RPS World Champion. Like a seasoned pro, he threw scissors and B&D countered with a weak ass paper. As if! Owned! There were definitely a couple of good things that came from this game on the We've Got The Runs side. First of all, they were able to score some runs which is usually difficult for them. The other good thing was that their pitiful defensive play made for some great comments after the game. They claimed they lost infinity to 0 and that they raped themselves in the field. They were happy about the RPS win but then "made out like a bunch of emo kids and slit our own wrists". Wow. That's kinda brutal, guys. Good blog material though. For whatever reason the "Call on Me" video was discussed quite a bit, even though that didn't really have anything to do with anything, its worth noting below. Balls and Dolls won 9-4.

Last but not least was a great showdown between Baller I Hardly Know Her and Multiple Scorgasm on field 2. Field 2 was definitely the place to be if you like close games with late rallies. BIHKH was working with a short squad but were able to play well despite that. The game was taking quite a while to get going as Multiple Scorgasm seemed pretty disorganized and confused between innings trying to figure out everyone's position. BIHKH was up 5-3 heading into the last inning and were hopeful for a win. Multiple Scorgasm scored 2 to tie it up. In the bottom of the inning without enough time for an extra inning, it looked like MS was going to be able to pull off the tie. With runners on first and second with 2 outs BIHKH kicked a pop up into right field that somehow found a black hole and fell in between 3 gray players, allowing a run to score, giving the purple team the victory. Baller I Hardly Know Her won 6-5.
