Fat Man Runs Funny

Well, I tried to call my self playing softball with my co-workers. It was the two District Project Teams from DFW battling out for bragging rights. I was 6th in the batting order and I was playing 3rd base, unfortunately. I actually had fun at this event even though I was very winded and sore.

Some of the highlights of the game were when a few guys hit some infield/outfield homeruns. Our pitcher caught one in the knee. We had a pitch runner running with a Gatorade in his hand. Our catcher tagged out a player in the face. We had a questionable call on a foul ball I hit and we tried to use my camcorder to do an instant reply, but it didn't work given the angle. And we finished 3.5 minutes ahead of the agreed time, but like I said I had a great time.

My stats were; 2 for 4, 1 single, 1 double, 2 RBIs, 2 runs, and a strikeout (the only one in the game) my wife calls me a loser (isn't she sweet?), but I felt like I did pretty well (that's all that matters). I hope we do events like this again.

  1. Wil,
    I feel your softball pain! Nothing says fun like being slow/fat and playing softball with co-workers! If I hit the ball on the ground in the infield I just walk back to the dugout...not really worth my time to try to "leg it out"

    peace,
    James
