Games 23 & 24 - "The Wrong Side of the Tracks"

Mike put it best, I think, by referring to the other team as looking like they spent the entire game muttering under their collective breath about how "preppy" and "privileged" and "hoity-toity" we seemed. In short, they were a group of dirtbags, but a group of dirtbags that managed to hold us in check enough to beat us in Game 1. Once again, we just didn't score enough. We managed to battle hard enough to take a brief lead heading to the bottom of the 7th, but couldn't hold on for the win.

Game 2 was pretty much the same, although we were able to keep the greaseballs' scoring to a minimum. The defense was pretty good, actually, and we took advantage of what limited offense we had.

Not really too much to report in either game. We looked sluggish, maybe feeling the effects of our 3rd double-header in a week, probably feeling the effects of a long Saturday evening the night prior. The weather was cool, with wind blowing in, so the Dinger-palooza that was Thursday's doubleheader was called off. We'll take the split, although a sweep would've moved us closer to 3rd place. Sunday's result was a microcosm of the season, in many ways...just good enough when we win, not quite there when we lose. Kinda meh all around.
