Weekend

Last day of the month…going to make it tough to make it to make it to Matthew’s game on time.

Friday night Will called from practice, wanting to play in a game with a teammate. It turned out to be way up in northeastern Cherokee County, above Ga Hwy 20. He hit 2 hard line drives that were caught, and an RBI single. Made a few good plays at first and third.

Saturday Matthew walked and scored a run, and his team actually won the game…just before the rain began.

Will’s game was moved up 2 hours and he barely made it on time. He pitched 2 scoreless innings, facing only 6 batters, striking out two. He had a long double or triple, and scored at least once. Umpires missed several calls, and didn’t do a good job at all.

During the 9 am NP service the fire alarm went off…perhaps a drill, but they treated it like the real thing. I hadn’t dressed warmly, which was bad. Everyone exited quietly. If it’s the fog machines in the middle & high school areas, perhaps they are more trouble than they’re worth.

Saw National Treasure 2, and most of the Braves game. Good they came back to tie the game. Glad Chipper got the first HR…Gammons had some kind words about him. Cox rolled the dice, pinch-running for Tex, and it paid off. For such an inside pitch, Zimmerman still hit it to the left-center gap. Blue jerseys were ok…obviously will be road only, since they said Atlanta. Surprised by the all-navy (black?) caps…a nice touch.

Will has a science presentation, and will miss his 12 & 2 pm games.
