Spring is Officially Here!

Had the first softball game of the season tonight. It was AWESOME! You'll all have to come out and watch sometime this season, assuming you're not on the team already. Next game is 6:00 next Monday at Peoria Stadium. Should be diamond #1 unless they didn't get the hole in the field fixed, then it's #3.

Anyway, we went into extra innings, but couldn't pull it out. We lost 13 to 12. I didn't walk a single batter and I went 2 for 3 with 2 singles. Would you believe one was an infield single? Just call me Speedy Gonzales! I think everyone had a good time, and our high spirits started to get on the nerves of the other team a bit. Sorry Sandra, but I don't think the shirts intimidated them at all. Other highlights of the game... Tom had a homerun, Laura got a single, both Iadipaolos reached base, and the new guy we nicknamed A-Rod hit a grand salami.

Oh yeah, we could see our breath during the game... pretty cool... literally. Below is a picture of me in uniform after the game. You should see the pants, they're completely dirty. Flyballs just stuck in the outfield grass and they'd come back to the mound with hunks of mud stuck on them... eewwwww.
