Another Year Another Perfect Game
Baseball fans have been blessed the last two years. Seeing two perfect games, which when you think about it is one of the hardest feats in sports. There has only been 19 TOTAL perfect games, nine-teen since we’ll say 1901. That is more than a hundred years and there has only been 19. You would think that it would be somewhere in the 30’s maybe, a reach would be the 50’s. After a hundred years and only having 19 perfect games, you know you are in good company when it happens to you. It is one of those things that does just happen, you get on the mound and all of a sudden its the 7th inning with nothing but zeros on the board. That is why you watch the game, because you never know what you’ll see in a such a unique game.

Fan-Tase-y
All the guy wanted was to run onto the field and well I don’t think he had a plan after that. Honestly though as a former MLB Security Staff Employee, your not going to chase him for a half hour, I see nothing wrong with this at all:

When It Rains It Pours
If that statement doesn’t say it all, I don’t know what does. Our #1 pitcher may have a torn ligament, our starting outfielder was diagnosed with lime disease, all the best to him and his health, and our starting catcher now has a bothersome knee. You can’t really catch effectively standing up so we loose his talent behind the dish. We are in trouble anyhow of not making the state tournament and now our players are dropping like flies.
As much as I do want to win, I also want the kids to stay safe when playing the game. If a player is hurt then you can’t do much more than rest him and hope for the best. After all it is just a game but winning is nice also. Nobody wants to go to the ball park knowing their chances of winning have been cut down a bit.
On the flip side, it gives a chance to the other players to step up while those players are out. There may be a player who we overlooked so far and now they get an opportunity to play. I hope that is the case that we have a diamond in the rough and our players step up to the task of filling in for our starters who have come down with injuries and other ailments.
Oh and a reason why Delonte West is one of my least favorite NBA players:

58 Year Old Hurling At Springfield
Who says you are to old to do what you want? Well I think surely shows that if you want to do something then the only one stopping you is you, great story.

Winning Can Cloud Overall Judgement
This weekend my team played against a team that was not in our league. Great, I was thinking of having many of the players who sit the bench get out there and show us what they have. As an assistant coach I can only come up with these ideas as suggestions and “talk the coach” into seeing them through. The head coach was really more interested in winning, so we could get back to .500 baseball. That is all well and good but I would have rather seen what the other kids could do for us down the road.
