June 3, Game 7: vs. Uriangato
WIN: 10-9 (11 innings)
Piotrowski, Chicago IL--So it seems the Phantoms like to keep things dramatic. After some solid pitching from Victor "Wheels" Gonzalez, and a towering homerun blast by LG "gasolina" Sears, your Bad News Phantoms (aka Chupacabras) had a 7-1 lead. But, after a seemingly endless tirade of whining on the part of Uriangato (spanish for "pissy cats") a comeback was staged.
So it was tied in the ninth. and the tenth.
I should pause to mention that my memory of events is subject to fictionalization, bad memory and a hangover. Gaping holes and blatant falsehoods will be corrected in due time. I should mention here my two doubles and 3 stolen bases. Make sure that's counted in the stats, Chief!
OK, so bottom of the 11th (or was it the 10th?? We'll get this right in a day of two) bases are loaded, two down, JP "We need some fences" Moran hits a game winning blast that should be counted as a grand slam except we ain't got no fences. Walk. Off.
Notes: Will nearly gets into a rumble with complaining Uriangato. LG can apparently sing whilst leading off third. Vic did notget further injured during this game, though we heard a fair amount about Ben-Gay and his testicles (feel free to come up with you own Victor nicknames in the comments section), the fields are being reconditioned with new dirt, grass cutting devices and something called a 'rake'...shortstops will appreciate this development.
Second Notes: Vic and Aaron brought beer. Vic and JP brought girlfriends. Mason and John (and, presumably, Jon "Need a New Nickname" Valadez) brought hangovers.
OK. that's all I got for now.
