Sunday Funday - Week 1 Highlights

It was a beautiful Sunday morning at Cuernavaca, perfect skies, perfect highs, and the perfect breeze.  As a normal group of Sunday ballers rolled in, we were all a little discombobulated…weren’t we just finishing up summer?  Some of us refusing alcohol due to the evening before and some starting out where they’d left off!! J We laced them up and got straight as can be, for about an hour!  A lot of us had our sights on Blake Street but knew we had to muster up some competitive moxie, and we did, like we always do…

 Mile High Kickballers vs. That One Team:  We aren’t judging this week, we’re just glad to have been out on the field.  Kay Kamienski was heading Mile High and Justin Anderson had That One Team and we were bringing it all together.  Mile High started the game and kicked through their order in the 1st as That One Team had a tuff time snagging that ball!!  Before we knew it Mile High was out to a 9-0 lead in the top of the 1st!!!  Again, let’s just focus on the fact that we were out there, on a beautiful Sunday, there were hints of lilac in the air, a lot of us had a kinda weird stare (minus the parents – up and at em!!), and (thanks GKB) no t-shirts to wear!!  There was a “don’t call it a comeback,” idea/moment for That One Team…but really, how do you comeback from a 9-0 deficit in k-ball.  Mile High Kickballers win 17-7.

Kevin Bacon vs. Wasted Talent:  To be talented and wasted is to be a Sunday Funday Baller!!  A perfect fit for the group who easily dominated Cup In Hand AND continue to play that way!!  KB was just getting their team formed and we were stoked to have them, but they were still learning each others names (not really), but it was a last minute get together.  This game, had hints of booze, dogs, and fireball with a touch of nasty ‘N’ word rap in the background…you know, the kind of park experience you take mom too!  The Talent had 15 runs in 4 innings and started getting the grill ready.  KB is re-grouping on their week off for Labor Day and planning on coming out sizzling on the 7th…be ready!!  Wasted Talent wins 18-2.
