THING OF THE GAME: The dark farm where Boof mines aspiring High Class-A pitchers.  I imagine it something like the goo they bear orcs out of in LOTR.  Or something in the water in the Richmond, maybe.

Anyway, Lunch Box went 2-4 with an RBI and a run scored, so there ya go.  Atta way Lunch Brandon.

NO PLAY OF THE GAME THIS WEEK GUYS

I'm just jokin y'all, our win streak did have to end eventually, keep grinding etc etc etc for the fan(s) blah blah great clubhouse d00ds but hey, Dave was right, you guys stayed up in a game where we could have been been staring at our spikes pretty much the entire time. Do not feel bad about losing to a top college prospect! (jk)

No really though I don't remember any really outstanding plays, Dave did have have one he snared in the wind and fog though. You got it, Dave. Actually Play Of The Game was us all getting blasted in Bobby's backyard -- happy birthday, man. I was still drunk when I woke up :/

NEXT GAME

SUNSET NOBLES

PLAYER OF THE GAME: This was kinda a tough call, but Ryan Gantz's CG and big go-ahead 2 RBI knock sorta sealed the deal. After allowing 3 runs (2 earned) thru the first couple innings, Gantz went in shut down mode and just mowed down the Nobles.  He also went 2-4 with 2 walks, 2 RBIs and 3 runs scored. On the bump he threw 8 innings, 8 Ks with 4 BBs.

Big shout out to Alex Williamson's big boy double, good for a solid RBI. Watching him watching that gapper was priceless, his mouth all agape. Won't soon forget.

Another shout out to the homie Lunch Box. That Craig Matoes tried to blast him at the plate and rebroke his nose, but Brandon just stood there - "LUNCH IS SERVED, BITCH"


PLAY OF THE GAME: Dave's seed he threw home that got that fool Matoes was TIGHT. Perfectly executed, Dave fielded the sharp line drive beautifully and threw right through Gantz who was lined up with home plate. Nice little one hop into Brandon's glove and Matoes was a dead duck. "LUNCH IS SERVED, BITCH"  --- I could type that forever.

PLAYER OF THE GAME: Well, I wasn't there but it's pretty plain to see from the stats and various incoming text messages that both PAT LENNEN and BOBBY RENZ were both a couple of straight-up PIMPS in Saturday's win over Berkeley. Pat with an amazing (5-5, 1 2B, 4 RBI, 2 R) day at the plate off of one of the craftiest little pitchers in the league, and Bobby with a big CG (13 K, 2 BB, 8 R, 2 ER) off of a stubborn lineup that often looks for little ways to beat you. Pimps.

PLAY OF THE GAME: I heard Gantz had a slick day in the field for the most part, scooping em up when it counted most. Not really a POTG I guess . . . Pat had a nice catch in CF? Showing off his superior range? Yes, let's go with that. Huey is going to test Pat for PEDs before our next game, watch.

OAKLAND BEERS

PLAYER OF THE GAME: duh. An absolute stellar outing from SP Zack Farwell (7 1/3, 0 ER, 2 H, 12K, 2 BB) in which he collected more hits than gave up. Everything was going right where he wanted it and I wish we coulda got him that shut out. All the while by the way being his own worse critic and punching his glove when he would miss his spot by two inches, AND dealing with getting squeezed. Brandon I will give you a shout-out cuz you must have called a good game, too.


(new feature): PLAY OF THE GAME: Ending the game on a soft liner and doubling the runner off first is pretty special, gotta say. There weren't a lot of defensive plays since Zack was dealing so hard, so that might have to do.

                                     honorable mention: The perfectly-timed pick-off at second base of Jordan. Seriously sly.

ON TO THE STATS . . .
I know this is what you're waiting for

PLAYER OF THE GAME: Brandon (2-3 with 3 RBI, 1 R scored, but drew a bases-loaded walk in a potentially momentum-turning spot and had a big 2-RBI single in another clutch AB).  Good little LunchBox.

Also the entire team is the Player of the Game.
