GSHAS #8
Nice work in a 9-7 win over Triple Play-Cubs!! The bats and gloves were both solid. Matt C. started us off with some awesome glove work at 2B with a ranging, over-the-shoulder catch in short RC. Great play!! Danny also had a nice running catch on a shallow fly ball. Charlie pitched a gem and had the hitters off balance all night- I counted at least 2 Ks but there might have been more. The Chris’ kept up their good hitting with several liners, including a ground rule double from Chris D. Pete gutted out the game after straining his side hitting in the 1st. But, it didn’t affect him at the plate as he started several innings with hits (and the Dan Wu courtesy runner strategy worked great). Pete, thanks for toughing it out (rest up for 2 weeks). Matt C. had a key hit to drive in a run and Chaz had a nice, run-scoring triple. Ben had a good hit between third and short too. Good work with the bats- lots of key hits.
Now on for the count and we have a winner!! Looks like we’ll be enjoying cold beverages after our next game (7/11, 6PM) courtesy of me. For those of you who had me after game #8 in the office pool, congratulatons- you get an extra beverage. So, everyone plan on sticking around for some post-game camraderie on 7/11.

Nate- we are looking forward to having you back. Even if you can’t play on the 11th, I’m assuming you’ll be sure to come out for the post-game beverages?
