May 1, 2005
opening day Thanks to all of the snow and rain last Sunday, today was the opening day of softball season 2005. So, today, the Dinsmore and Shohl Mailroom team took the field for the first time. Since we have an odd number of teams in our league, each team has one double header over the course of the season. Today was our double header. We opened the 2005 season against Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. Truly one of the worst teams I've ever seen. We jumped out quickly and won 18-8. 15 minutes after the end of the first game, it was time for our second. This time we were playing a team called "Silky Smooth." I felt that with a name like that, we needed to beat them on principle. However, this team was a bit better than our Lutheran friends, and with some help by some poor pitching (by me, unfortunately), we found ourselves down 8-3 after 2 innings. During the third inning, things began to turn around. I figured out a mechanichal error in my motion and started pitching really well again (even better than in the first game.) Our team became more confident and we mounted a comeback. We dominated the last 4 innings, and ended up winning 15-12. So, after the opener, we find ourselves 2-0, and in first place. It's great to be playing again. posted
