Game # 1 In The Books

Tuesday we had our first game of the season. We played the late game and boy did we finish late. The team showed up fired up and ready to break in the new bat. The team got a new bat for this season, and boy was it nice. The bat is a 2007 WORTH Mayhem M7 100+MPH bat. One of the best WORTH makes.

We played Carr Family Dentistry. I don't think any of them worked there though. Most of them were missing a few of their teeth. Maybe this is one dentist you might want to stay away from.

Both teams came out slow. It was the first game, so everyone was a little rusty. We did get one run in the first inning thanks to a triple by JJ and a sac fly by yours truly. Also, our defense was outstanding to say the least. We had a no hitter going into the third inning. That is very good for softball.

We jumped out to a 5-0 lead, only to have the other team come back and tie us in the sixth inning. It seemed to fluster us a little. Our bats just went dead in the seventh inning. We didn't get a run. So, CFD came up in the bottom of the seventh with the leadoff man getting a double. We kept our composure. We got our first out, but the runner moved to third. The next batter walked. The next batter hit it to Derek at third. He held the runner and threw the hitter out at first. We walked the next guy to load the bases. As you can tell it was getting intense at this moment. The next batter came up and you wouldn't believe it unless you saw it. HE STRUCK OUT!!!! All he had to do was put the ball in play and he might of had a chance to win the game, but no, He struck out.

We then had new life. We came up the top of the eighth with 8 runs to blow it wide open. They countered with two runs in the bottom half to make the final score 14-8. What a game. We start the season with a win. Hopefully we can keep this momentum into the next game against Sherwin Williams Pro Force.
