Well, the Grim Reaper tried, but didn't quite come through on Thursday.

(this IS just kidding, ok? I really don't give a damn who wins.)

The undefeated team won 2-0 in a helluva game. They were helped out by three double plays, each on fly balls flagged down int he outfield and the outfielders doubling up the runners before they can retouch. I haven't had three of those this season prior to today...

And big kudos to my BU. He was more indecisive than a Democrat Superdelegate. Went to him on third pitch of game and had to ask him twice if we had a swing, a no swing, or was he watching the hang gliders from the base just over the hill. We had, um, delays before we had calls. Drove me and everyone else nutso (for me, not a far drive). This was not just taking his time to make sure he got the call right...this was bang!...1...2...3...out! He's a good guy and a good umpire, just kinda let the pressure get to him a little. but we got the game done in an hour (6.5 innings) and everyone went home happy. Well, at least for the winners.
