PLAYOFFS 2010!
Well, playoffs started out great with the 69ers beating the Pineapples handily the first game, but then we got crushed by Balls Deep in the second game leading to a nail biting third game against the Beers which ended up in a tie.
Believe it or not, this lackluster playoff performance actually got us into the C final where we again met up with the Pineapples.
It was a very close game with it all tied up in the 5th, then the Pineapples got 5 in the 6th putting some major pressure on the team. Pressure however is not a factor for Paulie! With a few runs scored, Paulie steps up to the plate (did I mention he is potentially our third out?) cracks a ball deep over the left fielders head and brings in a couple of runners to tie up the game. (The cheers from the people watching the game was unbelievable!) In the 7th we managed to hold them with no runs and Robbie then hit in a couple of runners to win the game. I know it was only the C Final however, I am confident it was definately the most exciting game of the day!
Playoff Facts I Have Learned.....................
- Tanner plays much better hung over than sober. Give the boy a beer.
- Ang doesn't miss a ball in outfield
- Megan has a hell of an arm and can throw much farther than some of the guys (I'm in a good mood so I won't mention which guys!)
- Devin plays reallyyyyyy good when mad. I will make sure to piss him off before each and every game next year!
- Coach should never, ever play infield!
- Rob continues to pitch like a pro and as a result, has been signed up for another 1 year ball contract for 2011.
- When the gals have to stand up in the porta-potties to pee, yeah, tis time to start using the bushes!
- Anyone missing playoffs when they knew about the date 3 months in advance, should buy all the players beer!
- Cheryl still has a big grunt when hitting the ball and will always be our little "warrior princess!"
- Endangered species or not, that hawk at the ball diamond has got to go!
- Paulie is the official "hero" of the playoffs as it was his big hit that kept us in the game.
Great season guys and gals. Yeah we could of won more games but then we would of had to cut back on the beer drinking so really, is it worth it!?
See you all at the windup on the 28th............................................ Coach
