I think Hrabosky may be drunk.

Re: 5/29 GC
In other baseball news, the other team failed to bring a kid who could throw a strike and this turned into a girl's kid-pitch softball game. Bob's team is up 13-0 and I think they might have 2 hits.

Re: 5/29 GC
Easy T2 for Lynn. Butler hit the ball hard, but it was a 1-hopper to Honus. Moustakas and Lough both got jammed and popped out on the infield.

Please tell me an adult affiliated with the other team at least once screamed "Call it both ways!!" at the plate umpire.

LOL. No, from what Bob tells me the strike zone is already plenty wide. He got called out on strikes on a pitch he claims brushed his jersey.
We changed pitchers. It's 13-2 now. But we're in good shape. Horowitz is almost up.

Kottaras couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat.

Re: 5/29 GC
Carpenter robs Getz of a single with a diving catch going to his right. Really, really nice play.

He's related to Horowitz?

Re: 5/29 GC
Mendoza flails at a pitch like a blind lumberjack and grounds out 1-3 to end T3.

Maybe. Kottaras is crying in the dugout.

Re: 5/29 GC
Bob just learned a valuable lesson. It's something like 18-2 now. After fouling off 2 pitches, he got called out on a pitch at his eyes. Lesson: the strike zone dramatically expands in a blow out.

Re: 5/29 GC
Beltran swings at strike three in the dirt and then doesn't bother running to first.

Ah, the ol' "If the catcher catches it, it's a strike" zone.

Pretty much. The next batter is 8 inches shorter than Bob and got called out on the same pitch.

Re: 5/29 GC
Lynn opens T4 with three straight breaking pitches to Gordon, who lines the third one to right for a leadoff single.
