Special Double Issue

A double Summary before it gets too summery.

The strident Enneadians have taken to the great lawn field twice now this season, with new recruits en tow. Shaking off the dust from an off season, taking an oil can to the rust. One week ago yesterday, SOM did come to play. They brought their league leading best, to put our deity named team to the test. But we would not leave so quickly. After rounding the bases, in warm ups, I felt rather sickly. SOM took the lead early, but we fought back, “we would not rest!” I yelled from the back stop, like some sailor, rather surly. I was told the score is all that matters, it was too much to take for our brave batters. We left the field having fought well, but falling short in score, we thru pennies in the well. Wishing for success from afar, it was only a few blocks before we would win at the bar. (4-3 final losing score, with multiple winnings at the bar)

Last night the fog hung low over the great lawn; The city hidden in white. We walked onto the field wanting to make our opponent yield. They were our upstairs neighbors, “hey look over there, is that Jim Neighbors?” Gruzen came prepared, but we were up first, and we thru 4 runs at them quickly. Our spirits began to rise, there was a break in the fog. We would be the princess to their frog. But I must have lost the moral of the story, they began to come back and abscond with all of our glory. Down by 4, we fought hard, but it was a bit much, maybe too much a chore. We fell short by one run, welcoming another “braggin rights” beating. As our opponent cheered, I looked through my glasses, the fog had smeared. Covered in dirt, I turned to our team, there would come another day, a win?, dare we dream?

Team Ennead 0-2, so far, but looking to shake things up and go on a winning streak.
