It was just like we wrote it up. A couple of hits, a walk, and Bert goes yard. Grand, Slam, four zip, and we never looked back.
In the second, we got a walk and five straight hits, and suddenly it was 10-0. Game over. In the fifth, we had eight singles, and it was another six spot. Final score 19-7.
JT had a game in right center, tracking down a couple of deep flies in the second. Dave had a couple of great picks at third for force outs at second base.
Brian was a perfect 4-4 with a double. Hama went into auto Hama mode, flaring line drive singles to all fields four times. Bert led the way with five RBIs, and Cage followed him up with three on a 3-3 + Sac Fly night. Coop also had three hits. Dave had two of our four extra base hits, a double and a triple.
I don't know how those guys beat the first place defending East Bay team, but they did in the first game, and perhaps it bodes well for this week.
In the Big News, Tom was 2-2 and owned a backward K. However, that is not the Big News. In a milestone among milestones, he doubled his career doubles total to...2. Look out Nick, he is only 162 behind you. At this pace, if you retire tomorrow, he will catch you in roughly 12,150 games. I'm sure we will all live to see that. Should be in about the year 2500. AD. I hope Climate Change doesn't interfere.
Speaking of Milestones, I have neglected them all year but here they are, up to date. Don't let them overshadow Tom's great performance.
