Mens modified FP

Bases loaded.....fly ball to F7, who catches it - out number 1

R on 3rd tags and tries to score - and gets thrown out by about 5 feet - out number 2

R on 2nd is off the base and the C tries to pick him off, throwing, of course into CF. For some reason that runner tries to score from second, and gets nailed at home by five feet also. Out number 3

And this modified mens game lasted a whole hour and five minutes at the park which is about 5 minutes from my house 8pm start time, I was in my shower at home by 9:30

Nice night...
I've had trips before, but never like that! Of course, in my games, stupid throwing usually ends up in runs, not outs. You are right, something different.

Hope you enjoyed that adult beverage
