1st game of year
Last Wed. 3/8
First D1 game (non-conference).
Swampy with a low snow pile in RF corner foul terr. Anything that entered the snow would have been dead (no balls went in).
Nine innings, I had bases. Took me a while to get my bearings. Timing was good but after my second double play I ran out to RF with 2 outs. Caught my mistake before the next pitch. Had a no-stop balk with R1 & R3 against the home team and my first crap of the year 1.5 innings later when I did not "even up" when the home coach felt the vis. F1 balked when he sped up his delivery (he did stop). Home team won 10-4 but it felt more competitive than that.
My partner had a good zone too. Official game time 2:20.
Ran my arse off and, as a result, was nice and sore the next two days.
Had a DH cancelled on 3/11. Next one is 3/22.
