Ball Me Maybe vs. Lone Wolfpac

And to re-cap our last game against Lone Wolfpac:
 
The atmosphere: routine and debonair. The ref: red-headed Colleen. The conditions: naked weather and smelly (due to dog park). The location: Churchill 2 next to said dog park.
 
BMM came into this game with a nervous confidence. How would the team perform coming off such a high? The night was falling quickly, and a quiet dusk fell upon the presented teams. A quick RPS win secured the home field advantage for BMM, and players took their proper place in the field.
BMM took a 1-0 lead in the first inning. In the bottom of the second, BMM had impressive base running and brought another 2 baserunnershome.
There are still some rules that need to be ironed out for certain players: 1) You must tag up. 2) The only base you can over run is first.BMM has had repeated problems with the overrunning of second and third base. Schweinsteiger, after an incredible kick to far left field, decided to overrun third base. Purple team immediately ran over to him approx. 10 ft off the base and tagged him out. Pathetic. Groans, screams and wailing could be heard from BMM players. Schweinsteiger hung his blonde-haired blue-eyed German head. Purple team suppressed their laughter.
After the third inning, the sky was dark. Though nearly impossible to see, BMM fielding technique did not suffer.
Upon the victorious final out in the bottom of the 5th inning, the BMM team cheer could once again be heard echoing Churchill field… This cheer did not stop; it was chanted down the hipster highway and as BMM proudly took their stand for flip cup at Nick’s. A tense, fierce fight that was decided in the FINAL cup ensued when BMM challenged Lone Wolfpac. A victory for BMM was won. The first, and most likely the last. BMM will not find its strength in this game of nonsense. But a score of 4-3, BMM VICTORS, has gone done in the WAKAkickball history books. Tis not to be forgotten!
