"Pick'em Up"

"Yeah I called her up, she gave me a bunch of crap about me not listening to her, or something, I don't know, I wasn't really paying attention."

Okay, so I'll admit, I went to pick up the schedules, score book, rules, and softballs for Hughes tonight and I couldn't find the darn place. I know, Jay said it was shady, but I didn't realize it was actually AT the greehouses in this shack looking place that's about 14' x 10' and has a piece of plywood on the ground so you can get across the little creek the rain made today.

The good news is that I DID get the schedule and the list of illegal bats, scanned them in and have posted for all to see. Now, there's been some confusion amongst teams about the start date of the league. We start two weeks from Thursday on April 19th and play for 16 weeks. There will be two teams with a bye each week.

Although I do have the schedule posted here, each coach needs to make sure they get their packet from the office because you'll need to get your game balls and fill out a roster before your first game.

And it looks like the two new Co-Commish's battle it out in one of the first games of the night.

Field 2:

6:30 - Hughes vs. Momentum
7:30 - Schupp vs. Spark
8:30 - Moosylvania vs. Osborn & Barr

Field 3:

6:30 - Ad Pariahs vs. Emmis
7:30 - Drive vs. Clear Channel
8:30 - Zipatoni vs. Rodgers-Townsend

Byes - Shaw & Hoffman Lewis

Again, if you've got any questions, please don't hesitate to email Jay or myself. However, if you just want to start something up, head to the forums.

We're Good To Go

So all the money is in and we're all set for the 2007 Summer Softball League. Well, almost set that is.

Sometime this week April 2nd - 6th (M-F 3:30-6:00 p.m.) everyone needs to get their schedules, score book, and softballs from the league. The included map (click for a larger printable version) accurately depicts the random maintenance building to which you must venture. Typically there will be Forest Park orange trucks outside. It's right next to an old greenhouse.

If you are unable to get there this week during those hours, please email Jay Williams, or myself and we'll pick them up for you.

We're only 17 days away from opening day. We'll let you know about the Opening Day festivities (most likely limited numbers of free beer at the fields) as we get closer.

Peace out.
