for the win!!!1

It's been suggested to me that I write about something other than softball. I will gladly comply (until next season), but had to write one more softball entry:

Last Sunday was the championship game for our league and we were up against my favorite team, Agatinas (again). This time though we held it together and killed them 16-8. It looks like it was going to be a good game from the start; we scored 3 runs in the first inning and they scored 6. Apparently they ran out of steam or something after that. I was happy to see the circus come out on their team a few times during a particularly horrendous inning where we scored 10 runs. Other than that it was a very well played game. I sat out for the first few innings because we had fewer girls so I kept score. When I got into the game, they walked me the first time (bad pitches) and the second time I got up they walked me intentionally! They didn't even pitch. I guess they thought I was a gorilla that would cream the ball, where in reality I probably couldn't get it out of the infield.

The only surprise bigger than actually winning the championship game was the fact that they had a trophy (or "statue" according to Rachelle) for us! Being a big nerd, I haven't won many trophies in my life, especially for sports.
