Denver - Wednesday Highlights - Week 6

Cuernavaca Park Field 1 (6pm)

Punani Patrol (pink) vs. Saved by the Balls (red): 

With the sea of pink and red on the field, one might think this was an early Valentines Day party. But, this kickball game was no love-fest. Punani Patrol didn't hesitate to get across the plate, scoring 1 run in the first and another in the second. Nick Fields from Saved by the Balls slammed a 1-run homer in the second to give his team some hope of being able to hang with Punani. But after watching Punani Patrol run those bases time and time again in the innings to follow, all hope was lost. Saved by the Balls didn't score again, while Punani just kept on bringing it home, even scoring 4 runs in the seventh. Sources tell us that Saved by the Balls is in recruitment talks with all-star athlete A.C. Slater, pending approval from his wrestling coach. Punani Patrol wins, 9-1.

Balls and Dolls (green) vs. Simpletons (black):

This was the game of the night!  The Simpletons got on board first in the bottom of the 1st inning scoring 2-runs on simple-aggressive-base running!!  In the top of the 3rd inning, BnD's unknown booter - Joshua (or we can't read the referee's handwriting), put one in right field for 2RBI's & then came in to score to take the lead. The Simpletons answered right back in the bottom of the 3rd when Misty Gillespie kept the inning alive and Tim drove her home & we had ourselves a tie ball game!!  In the bottom of the 4th inning, Simpletons loaded the bases on a controversial call & then scored the go-ahead run.  BnD answered in the top of the 6th inning to tie the game, then our unknown Joshua was back at it in the 7th to kick the game winning run for BnD!  Nice work Joshua!  Balls and Dolls wins, 5-4

Dice (purple) vs. Step Parents (blue): 

It appears that these two teams made a deal: Dice would do the scoring in the first half of the game, and then Step Parents would do the scoring in the second half of the game. Dice jumped right on it and scored 3 in the first inning, while Step Parents honored their word and stayed off the board. With one run scored in the second, and another 6 scored in the fourth, Dice had a pretty solid lead when they handed the reins over to Step Parents. Step Parents revved up their engines to get 1 run in, but that would be the only time their team would cross home plate.  Our advice to Step Parents - no more deals with the devil. (Kidding! We love you Dice! Just wanted to make sure you were still reading.) Dice wins, 10-1.
