It didn't rain in the afternoon afterall. It was actually fairly sunny and the ground dried up quick, and so, we actually played ball! In a game I think we should have won, we ended up losing. I can't say I wasn't part of the losing effort -- I made an error that gave up an extra run sorta. There was a single hit into the OF, but when I was playing it to bounce to me, I expected the ball to bounce in the grass and into my glove... It landed just at the end of the mud and the grass and went right below my glove. Big mistake! Argh!
I did however, go 2 for 3 and now my season BA dropped to .714. The last ball I hit pretty good but it was right to the left fielder. I did get to run into a pickle on a 2 out ground ball, where I was on second base and the third basemen fielded the ball and instead of trying to throw it to first, she tried to tag me out... I ran at her, stopped, turned around and went back to 2nd and slid to beat out the tag. It allowed a run to score and runner to safe on first. Pretty cool!
I also made an Outfield assist which was really weird. The batter had a runner on first and two outs. He hit a single up the middle, and I scooped it up and saw that the runner on first wasn't at second base yet so I threw it at Gord on 2nd and got the out. It was pretty cool, and cost the guy a basehit. Hehe.
