GSHAS Fall #3, #4
Solid effort tonight in a split against a pretty good hitting team. We matched them blow for blow in the first game and won 18-16. The second game got away from us a little bit as they hit well and we gave them some extra outs. Jesse helped seal the deal in the 7th inning of the first game by diving to catch a line drive and then tagging out the runner on first for a DP. There were several nice defensive plays throughout the night- Ron made a nice diving catch, Jon L. snared a rocket ground ball that was nearly past him and fired across to get the PO at 1B, and Charlie had 3Ks. Anyhow, nice work to get a split- we’ll see these guys again, most likely twice if both teams win out. So, get the bats ready.
Also, don’t forget the annual BGBG/GSHAS outing at Jon’s place in Albion this Saturday. Be sure to respond to the evite if you haven’t already. I propose everyone who attends gets point amnesty next week.
I’ve only assessed a few points since I kind of lost track. Please self-assess as required. As always feel free to comment, correct, add, etc.

Please add a point to my totals. Letting a ball through the wickets, al beit a hard hit one, is definitely point worthy.

I should have at least 1 point as well. I don’t know if I should get it for the line drive that I didn’t catch, or the grounder that I kicked before throwing to 2nd, but clearly one of those was point-worthy. Oh, and I propose we amend the (pitching) walk rules to include a +1 for a bases-loaded walk (but not until next week). . .

I earned a point for the grounder that I butchered. Not the swinging bunt by the lefty, but the tame grounder that I had enough time to let it play me!

New walk rule sounds fair. =)
Give me that point!

Gentlemen,
I’ve adjusted the point totals accordingly. However, I see a disturbing trend here- those inside the dirt cutout seem to be assessing themselves points while those who play on the OF grass are not. I’m pretty sure there should be some OF points from our last outing? Wonder what the best way is to proceed as I’d like for things to remain reasonable for all parties and I don’t want to be the one trying to remember every week. I’m open to suggestions.
