We kicked off our slow-pitch softball season schedule tonight in nice fashion with a 10 to 6 win. We played some solid defense and the bats did enough to give us an early lead and hold off the opponent.
I saw action in the outfield and shortstop and was my normal over-the-top energetic self. Not quite as vocal, but only because I didn't want to scare off the new talent on the roster.
I lead off the game with a hard single to left, then beat a grounder up the middle, and capped off a perfect night at the plate with a triple to right field. I was even able find that "extra gear" on a couple of plays near the end of the game. There's nothing like a good adrenaline spiked sprint. (Oh, and not have your aging legs fall off afterwards!)
I miss coaching softball, but playing it again sure is nice, especially when you can goof off with your friends!
Yay for an opening-night win! Wish I could have seen it on TV. Mommler
