Why Don't They Make Counters With Sharp Edges!!!

I never thought I would see the day when of all things a team loses a game by mercy rule, however still throws a no-hitter. I almost got there but not quite. The home team in the game I had yesterday scored 16 runs through 3 innings before getting their first hit. By the time the game ended they had 20 runs on just two singles.

How bad did things go the three outs of the bottom of the first were as follows; Batter ducks out of the way of the pitch, which strikes the bat and is popped up and caught by F2 for the first out. Second out, pitch once again over batter's head hitting the bat, but ends up fair. R1 never leaves 1st and is forced out at second after ball is brought in from the outfield after F2 couldn't come within 10 feet of the bag with the throw. Third out was the BR being tagged at 3rd after a walk, 1-5 for the putout. F2 stood there waiting for me to hand him a new ball.

Even in the worst played games there is usually something you can take away such as something you need to work on or an odd situation that challenges your rules knowledge. Then every once in awhile you get a game that the only thing worth working on is getting to the other end in one piece and having a beer.

And somehow y'all think it was the umpire that had the bad day? :WTF

"I'm sorry, Coach. I just can't hit off this umpire!"

I prefer the Todd Jones quote...
