Bishops Molest Freedom

This guy was clearly rooting against us

That's another one in the L column, folks. After a slow start, we showed a little fire in the sixth, but it was too little, too late. Mike the Scientist finally got to use Physics on the mound and did pretty well. Beth made her pitching debut and was pretty solid. We may look to sticking with 1-2 pitchers per game in the future.

Fielding was again our weak point, particularly when an Asscap missed an easy throw at first. A couple of times the outfield was caught playing a bit too shallow, despite Janet Jackson's warning from last week's blog post (no one reads this shit, I just write it to entertain myself after a loss).

On the plus side, there was food. And, on the tenth anniversary of AI's rant, some of us practiced. From the practice we gathered that Mike the Scientist may not be the first to pick up on dirty jokes, but he sure can pitch. Jill is quite stellar in outfield, as was Ali last week. The lesson here is that we can put ladies in positions other than pitcher, catcher, and second base.

SCORE: 26-8

INJURY REPORT: Early reports are coming in regarding a bunch of bruised egos. Apart from that, one of the Bishops fell over randomly at first but still got my slow ass out. Also, the team had it's ringer removed when Actual Nick couldn't make the game.

MORAL VICTORY: We scored our first no-out runs of the season, got a couple of extra base hits, and I won a bet about how many times BK would take of his hat. I bet 4, and he only dehatted twice. His betrothed guessed something like 17. Wrong.
