Our boys soundly whooped them in their match tonight. 15-1. U tell me.

What was the technicality? A special rule regarding batting order. Our Coach asked about it during the coaches meeting... he was given the green flag by the assistant director. However, the a. director was wrong. So technically, the the other coach was correct. Nobody denies that. However, it was the only way they could win (we were 9-5 at that point, 10 min left in the game)

I do not expect you all to understand this. But it was obvious that their coach knew we were acting in a violation, but waited till it was too late for us to rectify it. Once they were WAY behind in the run count. 10 minutes in the game left. You just have to be around this activity to appreciate it.

They ended up losing the next two games in a row. What did their boys learn? Loopholes and technicalities. What did our boys learn? Play the game, suck it up, but play the game. I was very proud of our coaches and our boys.

Just had to be there.
