Lords and Ladies shows the expansion team New G'Rads how it's done

On a beautiful Tuesday afternoon, the Lords and Ladies had their first meeting of the season with one of the two expansion teams, the poorly named New G'Rads, like seriously, how can this name will really work for more than one or two years.

Not to mention the Lords and Ladies were decimated by the work-holiday flu bug, causing them to sign free Agent Shawn formerly of Gone Fission.  Lords and Ladies played half the game with only 8 players, including 1 lady which meant taking an automatic out every 10 batters or so.  But still, the result was never in doubt.

With wonderful fielding supporting great pitching, and timely hitting the Lords and Ladies breezed to a 15-9 win over the New G'Rads.

Game Highlights - Vote for Player of the Game in Survey

• Chris - great pitching and a great hip-check on Alex aka Charlie Hustle.  Alex was definitely calling for the ball, it seems that Chris had called for it as well.  9 runs over seven innings is a season low for Chris this year.  Not to mention he actually accounted for scoring 4 runs without suffering injury.   

• Paul - great defense at a position that shall not be named.  Plus 3 RBIs and 1 Runs

• Brendon ("Goose") - Goose was great at finding the Goose $#!% in the field.  But how could one forget that he went 3  for 4, with 2 singles and 1 double, with 4 RBIs and 2 Runs.

• Shawn - free-agent signing rushed into action went 4 for 4, 3 singles, 1 triple, with 3 RBIs and 2 Runs.

• Alex ("Charlie Hustle")- what a tough nut, after taking a devastating hit from Chris, not only did he stay in the game but produced his best game yet.  Going 4 for 5, 4 singles scoring 4 runs and playing great defense at 3rd.

Looking ahead, We need Tim back

Tim "Wildman" no longer holds the strike-out crown, next game expect him to lead off again.  Acu-Poke is also offering a special offer of Double Unicorn points, not to mention Unicorn points for fielding.

As well, Tammy the Hall of Famer 2nd baseman is in discussions for a possible return to the Lords and Ladies for a single game.  This would definitely boost the Lords and Ladies roster devastated by the holiday-work flu...
