Finally - something different!
 
I know in 20+ years, I've never had this, and I bet not many of you have, either:

I got to call all three outs of a triple play....as the Plate Umpire! And yes, bad fielding was involved (duh).

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 :D

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 :D:D

Nice night...

With a cold adult beverage waiting for you after your shower, I hope.

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

I think that would taste as well under the shower, not only afterwards...

The last line on the glass means: The Best brewery in the world.
The weapon-shield is from Bavaria (Bayern) in Germany. Was there the last three weeks camping... Miss that land already!

It appears to me it says "alteste" (I can't get the umlaut to show), not "beste" - that would mean the oldest brewery in the world.

Staring at that one picture is not necessary! ;)

And when my local beer store is out of that, this will do as well:

I had a similar situation a few years back, only I was the PU and my partner got to call all three outs of the triple play.....

As BU, I had one a long time ago -

35+ Men's Modified , ball hit sharply right at the 3B, who was drifting over towards the bag, and so he tagged the bag simultaneously with getting the ball, and started an around the horn TP. :)

It is, and it's the best beer I've had; bar none and not even close. The problem is, I can only find it at an expensive German restaurant here in town. Haven't found that they sell this stuff in retail.
