Bad News Bears

We played ball last night against the only other undefeated team in our league (we are the other one). The field was swamp-like, the batter's box was a muck hole and it seemed that our gloves were too small. Not to mention out bats.

Looking back I tried to think about what role I played in our demise. Well first off, I missed 2 pop flies (one diving, yes it likely did look ridiculous), a few grounders and one of my throws went about 7 feet over the cut-off man's head. As badly as I played, I played a minor role in the loss. I can't think of a single guy that played his normal game. We plain sucked.

Here's a list of the best excuses from after the game.

The light was in my eye.

The ball was wet.

My feet slipped.

The pitch was more of a lob.

I got under it.

Or Eeyore's contribution... We just suck.

In any case we didn't even get close. It never looked like we were going to rally, and the game ended in a 20 + point deficit. I did, however, drink about 4 beer, Which was the TSN highlight of the night.
