Will The Real Coneheads Please Stand Up?

Two nights:

Sunday, lose 5-4 to the Slammers, hitting .321 as a team. We actually had lost to them once long ago, going back to 2007. Led that game 7-6 going into the seventh only to lose 8-7. But still.

Then Monday, the same guys put up 17 and win 17-12 over an improved Warthogs team.

Sunday, one guy had two hits (Chopper never misses - his two run triple in the first was our game highlight as it turns out). Monday, only two didn't get at least two, and one, Larry tied for the team high three runs scored.

Sunday, we scored three in the first to take a commanding lead, and then scored two the rest of the game. Monday, we scored three in the first and then added on at least two in every inning until the game was already decided in the seventh.

Both games were most un-Coneheadlike. The Conehead inning was nowhere to be found, but I will take scoring in almost every inning.

There are no more highlights from Sunday.

Monday, Pope led the way with a two run homer in the first, and five RBIs overall. But he had plenty of help - D slashed rocket line drives four times down the right field line. Haze had a brilliant drive down the third base line for a double among his three hits. Welcome back Ol' G - he had four hits. Chuck and Heffe joined the three hit club, and Joe found his stroke with two hits and a walk.

We will need everything we've got as we take on the Waitlisters Monday. Early battle for first place with the Old Scouts.

(Sunday) Milestones:
Heffe        200 g (#3)

(Monday) Milestones:
Heffe         1700 ab (#2)
Larry         650 r (#3)
Chopper    600 ab (#16)
Bruce        30 2b (#21)
Hazel        100 r (#24)
Bruce        250 ab (#24)
Bruce        150 h (#24)
Bruce        100 r (#25)
