Welcome back EVERS!!!! My quad is so happy you are back and with a perfect day at the plate!
Let's all keep an eye out for the Carroll County Times article as their staff writer and photo-journalist must have had a field day with us. But, be antsy as they were interviewing Tom after the game.
And how appropriate was it to welcome Tim Schaeffer today as our newest member and witnessing the inevitable rookie bite....how's the calf pull Tim?
T'is time for rookie Bobby D to come off the disabled list. Our other rookie, Jerry B., attempted to stay out of this limelight by drawing a walk rather than hitting a single, but to no avail, a walk, double, triple and homer still count as going for the cycle in my estimation! Both Al & John's bats were back in the groove. While coaching third I overheard Catonsville comment that they didn't want to run on Pete's arm. To Dave, a
hearty thank you for not running through my stop sign at third as I would be at Carroll Hospital Center if I had to tackle you when under your full head of steam! To Jr., thanks for taking up for me with Mr. Henri and way to steal home!!!! To R'Nealius, my feint was designed to disguise and fool the baserunners, not our outfielders (guess we gotta talk strategy more often-how 'bout O'Lordan's, 6p.m. tonite over some clear beverages with a lime slice?). Michael and Hank were superb at first, with Chance extending his hitting streak. To 00, Chance, Evers and I have accepted you into our fantasy club as "Orval Overall"(look it up boys-1910 Cubs). And for Jim-once you have fully educated our team statistican (probably requires some late-night oil burning sessions), the moniker Harry Steinfeldt awaits you. As an aside, when I mentioned to my sports writer brother-in-law that in 1910 Tinker became the first player to steal home twice in a game his reply was, "todays Tinker couldn't steal home if the catcher dug up home plate and handed it to him"....I'm really feeling like Rodney Dangerfield. So what's next? We've been filmed by the County, interviewed and photo shot by the papers....can a spot on the Jon Stewart show be far off? Happy Independence Day to all and come ready for Wednesday's games!
