Ok, so we get crushed in our opening game against the Espoo Expos from Finland, we lose a close game against the Oslo Pretenders from Norway and we beat the White Sharks from Portugal 21 to 20 in a 9 inning nail-biter !!! We made 15 errors and still won. I'm happy to say that I had 4 RBIs and brought in the Game winning run. What a crazy scenario that was. We were losing by 10 points in the bottom of the 6th inning, I hit a single to right field to bring in 2 runs to avoid the merci rule (10 point spread after 7 innings = end of game) to make the game go 9 innings... long story short; we were losing 20 to 14 in the bottom of the 9th, we rally, score some more runs, I step up to the plate with a man on 3rd, score tied at 20. I hit a little chopper to 1st base on a 3 and 1 fastball to bring in our clean-up hitter, (the slowest on the team-LOL) who dives save head first from 3rd base on a fielder's choice, safe at home, we win 21 to 20!!!!
Today we're gonna get annihilated by the Mannheim Tornados from Germany...
