better than bad

softball, that is... well, five or six key (at least) errors gave up about ten or eleven runs (at least) and we lost the second game (semi-finals) somewhere in the neighborhood of 14-9... we had beaten that team earlier in the year and they will likely finish second and we beat the two other teams in the playoffs and didn't face the #1 one loss team in the playoffs (five teams total in the league), so we finish third which is where we fit into this league cuz the two teams in 1st and 2nd have better hitting and fielding and the two teams in 4th and 5th are about the same as we are (they both beat us during the season and finished the regular season 3rd and 4th with 4-4 and 3-5 records, respectively... we finished the regular season at 2-6, but beat them both in the playoffs making it to the loser's bracket final {two game elimination tournament}, which is when the playing and wins and loses count more, for us at least)...

i don't know if the link is accessible or how long it will be up there (with apologies to posterity), but here are the league standings for future reference and in case you are a stat geek like me, or just care and have time to look and wanna know...

on the personal side (since this is my blog), i batter 9th in the first game and 10th ion the second game... 2 for 2 with a walk in the first game, scoring twice and knocking in a few rbi... 1 for 3 in the second game, flying out the right center twice (the second one the right center fielder made a great running catch on), so while i am not satisfied, i am more ok with it cuz after all, beating myself up about not being perfect happened earlier this week and once a week is enough... so much for the magnificence flagellation of snarky malarky, aye?... what?...

throwing narfetti :)
