Fat Kids Bully Their Way to Victory
The return of the Fat Kid Blog has a little extra mustard on it this week. The Fatties returned to their winning way after a lackluster performance last week. When asking Super Freas what happened the previous week he responded with “My astrologist predicted a bad game, that’s what you get with fortune cookies beliefs but we are better now”. The Fat Kids won this week 17-7 with the 10 run rule in affect after 5 innings. The Game was highlighted once again with a strong offensive performance, a recent surge in defense skill, and a minor disagreement.
Super Freas was back and in a big way once again hitting for the cycle, the hard way. And when we say the hard way, boy has that kid lost a step. “I think I left those steps somewhere around 2nd base, I feel every bit of 30 years old”. Additional hits came off the bat of The Chode Cannode and El Sukador. Hollywood Bristow stretched his traditional single into a double. The Swinging Siv put a charge into one for it to fall short at the warning track; we’ll blame the wind on that one. Pete the Pitcher was happy to see the offense return after last week’s debacle, “Good hits from the Hippie and Aggie, heck I think Jimbo got one”.
El Jeffe the Southpaw who is a recent pickup off the waiver wire provided some fireworks with his gun from the outfield, twice throwing out runners. Once at home to Calm Kyle and another one on a close play to second where Aggie “tagged” the runner before getting into the base. El Sukador even had an outfield assist gunning down a runner at third, how the ump called him out is beyond this writer.
The real excitement came in the top of the 5th inning with Fat Kids in the field and the dugout full of wives and kids. Did you know the Fat Kids opened a nursery in the dugout??? Sorry, got off topic. Seriously though, where did all these kids and their car seats and strollers. Sorry, off topic again. The real excitement occurred with a hit to the outfield and the other guy’s runner coming home and he attempted to point something out on Kyle’s chest with his face. It didn’t go very well and Calm Kyle didn’t appreciate the kind gesture of the gentleman runner. After realizing his mistake Calm Kyle attempted to thank the nice man by placing his glove on his face, which everyone knows is a South American way of saying “I’m Sorry and I would like to hug it out”. The other guys attempted to resolve the issue by bringing a gift basket to home plate at the same time which was well received except for some jack whacker in the stands didn’t like the gesture and vented his frustration. In the end we all grasped hands and sang a rousing rendition of “Ring a round the Rosie”.
And then Kyle was asked to leave nicely.
Go Fat Kids!
