Playoff Game 1 Review - Whoa.

We came, we played, we kicked ass !

What an awesome game last night. I am not a highly competitive person but I really wanted that win and when we held them on last bats and pulled off a 18-16 victory, I damn near shit myself.

They were a good, fun team who could both bat and field well but they proved to be no match for the Smelly Cats. We played hard and earned that win !

Nadine, I'm not sure what you brought Dave for dinner last night, but man was he hot - I don't think there was much that got by him. Can you bring enough for everyone next game ? That double play he made where they claimed he trapped the ball was likely what kept us alive.

I have to say a special thanks to Alek for coming out and playing last night. He drove all the way from Medicine Hat, played the game and then headed back. His point of view was '"Hey, I got to leave work early, play ball and ride my bike for 5 hours. What more could a guy ask for ?' What a trooper !

Playoff game 1 also marked the return of the Vestrums to the Smelly Cats. Ok, so it was really more of a cameo than a return, but it was great to have them out !

Well, let's do it again next week !
