Dejected WJBO players answer media questions after the loss.The first week of kickball had several great moments, even if one of them wasn't a cooler-dumping in honor of victory. At least we did our best to empty the cooler of the full beers inside.
Highlights of the 9-3 loss are below.
Play of the day: Chad made an awesome catch off a deflected ball for a big out. It looked something like this.
Streak alive: Hilary was the birthday girl and led off the game with a single to keep her consecutive games reaching base streak alive. She was not as impressed with the streak after the game, but we still went to Don't Know afterward to celebrate the occasion.
Fast start: Hilary, Becca and Jim all reached base to start the game before Chad kicked a bases-clearing triple. 3-0 lead after the first inning. Unfortunately, our score kind of looked like the Orioles the rest of the night.
Bases jammed: We came close to scoring several times but left two runners on twice and the bases loaded in two other innings. So frustrating.
Dynamite Debut: Lisa went a perfect three-for-three at the plate in her first game in blue. Becca also had a perfect night at the plate, going four-for-four. A small town in Delaware has renamed itself in honor of the performances.
Classic closer: Jim did another Charlie Sheen impression, pitching a perfect seventh inning out of the bullpen. Our fashionista fans went wild.
No coaching changes: Despite the lack of offense, head coach Nate made it clear assistant coach Allie will be around as long as he is. Base coach jobs remain open though.
