Game 2 for the Dirty Sox

Last night the Dirty Sox played the second game of our season. We played Pat's Pizza and though we greatly improved over our last game, we still lost 26-12. The game was actually a lot closer than the score says. We actually had a 2-0 lead going into the bottom of the second but we gave up 9 runs in both the second and sixth.

I think the box score ran something like this:
Dirty Sox: 1-1-0-6-0-4-0
Pat's Pizza: 0-9-1-4-1-9-x

Unlike the last game, the umpire was pretty awesome and he took the job very seriously. I hope we have him for the majority of our games. Fielding in the first game was pretty poor for our team but we really picked it up last night with some great plays. Batting was also a strong point in this game, evidenced by us increasing our run total four-fold.

As for me, I could have done better at the plate, but I had been driving all day and was just too tired to lift my shoulders up enough to do well. In the field I did well except for a ridiculous error which left me with a subdural hematoma in my thumb. :P

I know that with more practice, this team will actually finish respectably.
