Dress for Success

Temperatures at game time tonight will be 44 degrees, so dress in layers. Game 2, it's gonna drop to 40 degrees.

Also, if you haven't yet replied, please do so. It would be great to win these last two games and have a shot at being Fall Champs.

One More Thing...

...the league site has not yet been updated, but we are 14-2. As soon as I have the standings, I'll post them here.

A few thoughts going into the bye week.

* Hoder leads with 34 RBI...but I have 4 more games than Scarlato who has 30. Are 2 games enough for Scar to overtake the RBI lead? 

* Hoder has the highest BA at .711, but Scar is a close second...but Flieshman is one to watch. With only 6 games under his belt, he could overtake both guys with 2 big games...it's easier too boost that average with fewer at bats...but it's also easier to falter.

* Vagnetti has been walked 6 times this year.

* Scarlato is the HR King so far with 2. But Ryan Foley has the only Grand Slam, right? Plus if Ian shows up, he has the ability to have 2 a game.

* We have one female on our team...but Heather's batting average is better than Lazarus'. Maybe Mike should think about coming out to boost his stats since he's losing to a girl (ha ha).

* In recent weeks, Coach Brad Albert has come on strong. A slow start had him riding the lower end of the batting averages...now he's on a roll, batting .636

* Has anybody figured out Wood's strategy? He's batting .684 and could be the batting champ with another stellar showing. All but one of his hits have been singles. Somebody need HGH?

* As a team we have scored 224 runs so far this year. Not counting the 2 forfeits, that's an average of 16 runs a game...now that will win you some softball.
