Ball one. Sheridan tries to hit the outside corner with a 2-seam fastball but just misses. Ball two! This time Blackstone misses on the inside corner when the 2-seamer breaks in and off the plate. The Aruba crowd is on its feet as they know this is a hitters count. Scherbie digs in as Blackstone comes set...strike one! Sheridan surprises Scherbie with a front door curve that just nicks the corner! Blackstone has her sign and is ready to deliver the 2-1 pitch when a streaker runs onto the field! Trog Smash doesn't even wait for security. True to his name, Trog **SMASHES** the streaker with a wicked backhand sending the tanked-up fool ass over tit.
With order restored Scherbie digs in once more. Blackstone comes set and fires...You can forget about this one folks! The Serpents are going to walk off the Beholders as that ball lands **DEEP** in the left field bleachers. A fully loaded swing sends the Aruba crowd into a frenzy! This game has been back and forth all night long so it seems only fitting that the one-time Beholder will send his former teammates home with a bit of Scherbie magic!

Skellinger sends a sinking liner out to center where Huff makes a dive...IT GETS BY HIM! And the Race is on! OQuinn is sprinting towards the ball as Bony is rounding second. Pel fires the ball towards the infield as Skellinger approaches 3rd...**BRAKES!!!** Ooga throws up the stop sign just as Bony hits the 3rd base bag. O Sulibhian has the ball in his hand and was ready to make the long throw home. Imo, a good hold from Ooga as it would have required a poor throw from Saoirse to score Skellinger. Excitement here in the 7th!

The tension is high and the fans are ready to cheer their home team. So when Aruba acts like Dodger stadium the fans will get a pass, this time.

A hot shot down the third base line lands in foul territory but the umpire signals it crossed over the bag! Hamster will trot home and Huff will pull into second with a game-tying standup double!

Weight and hands back, Hannibal throws the bat head out and hooks a liner over a leaping Trog at third. Mo Mo is being waved in and will score easily as the throw goes to third while Bligh pulls into second with a double.

Butter Man is showing the poise of a 5 season vet. Bast becomes the second straight strikeout victim when the ump calls strike 3 on a pitch Fidgewidget thought was up. Pitchtrax has it just catching the top of the zone which I sure Bast will he told when they get back to the dugout.

Ball one. Sheridan tries to hit the outside corner with a 2-seam fastball but just misses. Ball two! This time Blackstone misses on the inside corner when the 2-seamer breaks in and off the plate. The Aruba crowd is on its feet as they know this is a hitters count. Scherbie digs in as Blackstone comes set...strike one! Sheridan surprises Scherbie with a front door curve that just nicks the corner! Blackstone has her sign and is ready to deliver the 2-1 pitch when a streaker runs onto the field! Trog Smash doesn't even wait for security. True to his name, Trog **SMASHES** the streaker with a wicked backhand sending the tanked-up fool ass over tit. With order restored Scherbie digs in once more. Blackstone comes set and fires...You can forget about this one folks! The Serpents are going to walk off the Beholders as that ball lands **DEEP** in the left field bleachers. A fully loaded swing sends the Aruba crowd into a frenzy! This game has been back and forth all night long so it seems only fitting that the one-time Beholder will send his former teammates home with a bit of Scherbie magic! **Swing:** 547 **Pitch:** 545 **Diff:** 2 **Result:** HR 2 outs, Bases Empty, 6-4 ASS WINS!!!

Skellinger sends a sinking liner out to center where Huff makes a dive...IT GETS BY HIM! And the Race is on! OQuinn is sprinting towards the ball as Bony is rounding second. Pel fires the ball towards the infield as Skellinger approaches 3rd...**BRAKES!!!** Ooga throws up the stop sign just as Bony hits the 3rd base bag. O Sulibhian has the ball in his hand and was ready to make the long throw home. Imo, a good hold from Ooga as it would have required a poor throw from Saoirse to score Skellinger.

Huff has one of the big swings on the day and is looking for another as the Beholders are down to their final out. Digglet has his sign and delivers...FAIR BALL!!!! A hot shot down the third base line lands in foul territory but the umpire signals it crossed over the bag! Hamster will trot home and Huff will pull into second with a game-tying standup double! The back-and-forth nature of this game continues!

The only momentum to be found here is the momentum both pitchers are building. A jam shot grounder to short will turn into out number one and a growing sense of frustration for the BBG batters. **Swing:** 223 **Pitch:** 522 **Diff:** 299 **Result:** GO 1 out, Bases Empty

Did you bid on JT? I did but I don't think I will have the winning one. A high fly to right is going to end the inning when OQuinn makes the two-handed grab. We are still scoreless in Aruba as we head to the 4th! **Swing:** 723 **Pitch:** 933 **Diff:** 210 **Result:** FO 3 outs, inning over

If I hit a homer here I’m changing my server nickname to Daddy Ass. 416, please.
May I suggest changing your nickname to ASS Whiff? **Swing:** 416 **Pitch:** 808 **Diff:** 392 **Result:** K 2 outs, Bases Empty
That’s not very appealing.
Depends who you ask, really.
Settle down, James Joyce.
Once again an Aruba runner seems to be on their way to a good jump only to have something happen near a bag. Mo's lead spike digs hard intonthe dirt standing him up 10 feet short of second where the tag is applied for the out. **Steal:** 99 **Catcher:** 461 **Diff:** 362 **Result:** Caught Stealing 1 out, Bases Empty

A busy morning has Sexton scrambling to the box and swinging wildly. Somehow, Juan makes contact on a pitch that bounces but just enough to send the ball 2 feet out in front of home plate. Mo Mo springs out of the crouch, picks up the ball, and fires to first in time to get the out! A quick 1-2-3 inning from Butter Man sends us to the bottom of the 3rd! **Swing:** 662 **Pitch:** 345 **Diff:** 317 **Result:** GO 3 outs, inning over

Todd struts up to the plate, determined not to get struck out again in his 2nd career at-bat. 360
No strikeout for Bonzalez this time around. No hit either. But, a fairly deep flyball that pushes Calvin Huff a step away from the warning track is a step in the right direction! We head to the 3rd still tied at 0! **Swing:** 360 **Pitch:** 560 **Diff:** 200 **Result:** FO 3 outs, inning over
Dingerhitter takes off for second by stumbles ever so slightly on his 2nd step. That slight stumble makes all the difference as Chakra nails the runner on a bang bang play at 2nd! **Steal:** 985 **Catcher:** 294 **Diff:** 309 **Result:** Caught Stealing 2 outs, Bases Empty

How was Monday Umps? Swing: 921
I had a very frustrating Monday. I have to close payroll this week and my CBO has failed to update account counts for 2 weeks straight so instead of doing my job I am.chasing this nimrod down trying to get him to do his. And there's a medium flyball to left for out number one. **Swing:** 921 **Pitch:** 740 **Diff:** 181 **Result:** FO 1 out, Runner on 1st

Kraken is moving and sent their swing via DM. Understandable that their attention wasn't fully on the swing here causing a rather late attempt at the 1-2 fastball from Butter Man. A big out for Aruba as they look to once again strand a runner at 2nd! **Swing:** 777 **Pitch:** 205 **Diff:** 428 **Result:** K 2 outs, Runner on 2nd

O Sullibhian ambushes the first pitch from Man, a get-it-in curve, and sends a rocket down the left field line. A big hop into the stands will put Saoirse on second with an automatic double! **Swing:** 399 **Pitch:** 367 **Diff:** 32 **Result:** 2B 1 out, Runner on 2nd

Hamster's wheels are spinning as they can't get out of the box cleanly. The slight delay allows Dirtbag a chance to make the play after initially bobbling the routine grounder. **Swing:** 444 **Pitch:** 104 **Diff:** 340 **Result:** GO 1 out, Bases Empty

Time to make a deal with the devil 666
No deal to be had here. A group of heavenly hosts ascends on the field pushing back any demons Darrell was trying to summon. A quick 1-2-3 inning for Monty as we head to the 2nd tied 0-0. **Swing:** 666 **Pitch:** 230 **Diff:** 436 **Result:** K 3 outs, inning over

327 swing for Trog
A grounder to short is going to end the threat and end the inning. Butter Man gets out of the jam after allowing the leadoff double!

Bast steps up to the plate ready to start strong this season 675
Butter Man is showing the poise of a 5 season vet. Bast becomes the second straight strikeout victim when the ump calls strike 3 on a pitch Fidgewidget thought was up. Pitchtrax has it just catching the top of the zone which I sure Bast will he told when they get back to the dugout. **Swing:** 675 **Pitch:** 239 **Diff:** 436 **Result:** K 2 outs, Runner on 2nd
