Fat Kids Suk It In

Fat Kids Suk it in




4-7-11



PHEW!! All of our Faithful Fatty Followers can exhale. That was a close one folks but those Fat kids hung in there just long enough to escape with a 2-0 record in the spring season. The Masterbatters kept the game close throughout and made it real interesting with a comeback in the bottom of the 6th inning but some rare defensive flashes put an end to their surge.

There was enough offense to keep the Fatties out front early on. The scoring kicked off in the first with Team Super Freas scoring from 2nd ending the first inning with a score of 4-0. The Chode Cannode hustled down the line for a base hit to the delight of his sons in the dugout, they have been renamed “The Mini Lasordas” for all the chatter they have during the game. Not to be out done Glass jaw ate his spinach before the game by ripping a double to the fence, later adding another single. Cookie launched a few singles from the left side of the plate as well. His RBI single in the top of the 6th added insurance runs which were desperately needed. Hippie proved to add the deciding run with a slow roller up the third baseline and beating the throw at first.

The Fat Kids were without their starting first baseman The Swinging Siv that was undoubtedly hiding in shame after being awarded the pink helmet for the first strike out of the year. Don’t you worry Siv the helmet is still all yours after none of the Fat Kids struck out last night. Surprised aren’t ya, so am I. We have yet to see Canada, not sure where he is at or what he is up to. Rumor has it he was training the back Canadian woods rehabbing his busted up knee when he got into a scuffle with Sasquatch. Hopefully he returns soon. UGA was also missing; he is in Michigan and asks for your payers that he gets out alive. It seems without these key cogs in the lineup the defense sees an opportunity to take a nap. Coach Jimbo playing first couldn’t keep his feet under him. A routine play to 2nd base couldn’t be handled which set off a comedy of errors which had The Chode Cannode giving his best world cup impersonation and kicking the ball back into the infield. “I thought El Sukador was going to pee himself he was laughing so hard”, Team Super Freas was heard mumbling. There were a few defensive highlights however. Hollywood Bristow had a great over the shoulder catch to make a key out. El Sukador rolled up his sleeves and unleashed a cannon from left center to gun down a runner at home to save a run which would prove pivotal. “Who knew a cupcake maker could throw like that?” Calm Kyle said. Pete the Pitcher had another great outing ringing up 2 batters once with a swing and a miss and another with the high cheese. He only made one big mistake giving up a 3 run jack in the bottom of the 6th to bring the Masterbatters within 1 run. That threat was stopped on a sharp liner to Hippie at 3rd to end the game.

After the game we celebrated with a very special cake for Pete the Pitchers 40th birthday.
