G.D. Newsletter "Sure to Entertain" 11th ed.


Week 2 of Glory Days Sports Coed Softball Fall Season was awesome! Do you know why? It did not rain!!! After 2 rain-outs in the first 3 weeks, everyone started the day off happy to get some games in. Not everyone left after their game (or the spectators seats; tongue-in-cheek) so happy though.

One local guy was watching the second set of games with a couple of his amigos. They must have been knocking a few cervazas back, when Rosco Pico Train rolled up! Rosco impounded their vehicle and arrested the most inebriated of the bunch. Let that be a lesson to all you drunkards out there (definitely not team “Here For The Beer”).


Now To The Scores:

Games 1 & 2
Buttermakers
lose two to Title America. 12-1 and 22-9.
Highlights- Chrissy Kalani of Title America writes: Strong bats from newbie’s Rick Watson and Carmen Midili along with veteran Kim Brodbeck who went 2-4 including a double. Yea girl power! (Hey now) Yea that girl power continued with a hot bat from Kellie Adamucci in the second game; and her husband Ricky and brother Mike Earling continue to beat the crap out of the ball. Wow they must of took lessons from Kellie. Alicia of the Buttermakers writes: Kyle almost went the cycle, missing a homer by *this much* Nick made some fabulous (love the word fabulous Alicia) catches out in the outfield. Both (ours and theirs) the 3B's made some fantastic plays out there. Thank you Chrissy and Alicia!

Game 3& 4
JM & Sons
drowns Dazzy O’s “Here For The Beer” 19-5 and 17-8.
Highlights- John Miller of JM & Sons rebuts, I mean reports: Last week’s G.D. Newsletter states we have some semi pro players. We won both of our games last week against the Buttermakers with absolutely no semi pro players! (you and everyone else John) This week both Brian and Dan had inside the park Home Runs! Tara was great, she went 7 for 8 on the day! Jonelle of Here For The Beer says: ........ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ! (Jonelle was hung over and did not make either game) Thank you John and uh Jonelle kinda!

Game 5 & 6
Dazzy O’s “Team Awesome”
win two tight games against Burlington Blazers. 8-3 and 9-8.
Highlights- Megan of Burlington Blazers writes: 1st game we started off with a couple errors in the outfield that wound up costing us some runs. Team Awesome led by great defense and key hitting, was able to handle us 8-3. Amidst all the excitement in the game, there was one spectator (one of the 3 Amigos) that didn’t have quite the great day. He was arrested on the scene when the police arrived for apparently being intoxicated. Hope things work out for that guy. 2nd game was a different story. Defensively the corners were great, turning two and picking everything out of the dirt. Offensively 3b bob betler started the game with a 2run double and later had a 2 run inside the parker. jessica bienick pitched a great game, but when it got late the strike zone seemed to shrink. (it happens to the best of us Jessica..usually guys though) Walking a number of batters late led to team awesome to go up by 2 and winning by 1 on a play at the plate to end the game 9-8. Flipper of Team Awesome text’s: Dustin was awesome today. (thanks for elaborating Flip!)

Game 7 & 8
TriState
held off Just Us. 8-3 and 14-12.
Highlights- I was playing in these games so I will be doing the reporting (well I actually sat the first game…I kept telling myself to be a team player and keep my big mouth shut…look what happened to the last second baseman). These 2 games were highlight by 1 unique play and 1 unique 1st baseman. The Play: 2 men on (1st and 2nd base), 2 out, bottom of the 7th inning, perfect game on the line, the ball is hit right back to pitcher Mark DeNafo. He scrambles to retrieve the ball, stumbles, bumbles, fumbles to grabs the ball, under hand tosses it to third base. He throws it completely wide. The ball hits the fence and 2 runs score!!! Ok so the details may all be exaggerated or completely wrong but you get the idea…an under hand toss to the fence for Pete’s sake from about 10ft! The Player (Ron “Angelina Ballerina”) 1st baseman for Just Us: He does an actual split (I mean balls in the dirt split) on every single throw to first! From a runner just getting out of the batter’s box to to a runner turning to come back to 1st..he doing the split on every catch, close play or not! When you play Just Us next, ask Ron to do the “Balls in the dirt” for you, it is most entertaining!
