SLUGGERS CO-ED SOFTBALL - Clinch #1 Seed in the Play-offs with the Best Record in the Division!

Congrats Team! We clinched the # 1 seed for the play-offs with the best record in the division, and earned 50% of the league award!

We had a very SOLID DEFENSE tonight and had a late inning 5 run rally that clinched the victory for us. We had aggressive base running tonight and had to earn just about every run. Great hustle and heads up plays, especially getting that base runner out in a pickle between 1st and 2nd base. The final score was Sluggers: 13, Team Lopez 9.

My Rambo #1 award for the game goes to Miranda, who as a base runner had the ball hit her in the back while running to third, fell down, got up in pain and ran into home as part of that 2-out 5 run rally. My Rambo #2 award goes to Sylvia who took a line drive into her leg while standing on third base. Sylvia took the hit with a smile and played the rest of the game (but I think I now owe her some jewelry J ). My Voodoo Superstitious Award goes to Josh for wearing his summer shorts and T-shirt that he wore from last season’s Championship season to reverse the losing streak!

But we are not finished yet. We are the # 1 seed going into the semi-final tournament game next week at 7:45pm. I suspect our opponent will be Team Danner since it looked like Team Norcross defeated Team Mora in the game before ours. Norcross and Mora will meet again next week in the other 6:30pm semi-final match-up. The winner of both semi-final games will play each other at 9:00pm that same night.

Congratulations to Eric for winning the HR (and Over the Fence) HR Race for the regular season with 7 HRs (all over the fence)! I think Kacey will give you a run for the money next season!
