What Day Off?
Sucks looking forward to a half day at the house of the dead and then hoping to get off at 3. Then 4. Maybe 5. Resigned at 6. Caught in traffic at 7. Sucks.
If I ever wanted to go off I'd have a hella bunch of stories from the mortuary. But that's disrespectful. Even for an ass like me. It's somebody's familia.
Made it out to the park just in time to catch the start of tonite's VCA game. Up 14-0 they let the other team crawl back into it with a final score of 14-11. Ugly game conditions with the wind kicking up and lots of dirt blowing around leading to many game delays.
I learned a lot tonite watching Sean playing catcher. The first play was a lil bloop that he was too late to make a play on that he let roll foul. Then a few innings later a similar bloops in front of the plate but this time he was in position to pounce on it and throw the batter out at 1st before the ball had a chance to roll foul and the batter didn't even get out of the box. Sean's a softball genius. Watching those 2 plays made sitting thru the freezing wind worthwhile.
Mike's situational hitting is also something worth noting. He sees the 2nd baseman shift over, swings, and puts the ball thru the hole the 2nd baseman just vacated.
I have lots to learn. Tomorrow it's back to the park during our bye week to watch Mike's game and get another look at the teams in our league.
I really regret all the time that I spent chasing basketballs after our baseball team broke up after my junior year of HS. Watching baseball/softball games now I sometimes feel like an ESL student cramming in English. I'mma get this shit down oneday.
