Softball Season Begins
My softball team “The Tube Socks” had our first game last night, which we won by one run. Good way to kick off the season and get some momentum going. My new cleats are surprisingly comfy, given the fact that until just a few days ago they were sitting in a box at a sporting goods store. I meant to up pick some up sooner and break them in, but never got around to it. Fortunately, they’re pretty good… and now that I got some grass stains and dirt on ’em, they look a lot better 🙂
I managed to go 2-for-2 at the plate last night, with both hits being minor dribblers to the infield; this meant having to peel out and run like a madman to make it to 1st base. I’ll hit the batting cage next week to tune up my swing.
The team is largely the same as previous years, and the everyone is very supportive. It’s a fun bunch of humans, and we always manage to have a great time. I suppose the promise of cold beer afterwards might be a good incentive…
