Thoroughly Trouncing the Expletives

Good Morning A’s,

The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and the A’s steamrolled to domination over the CDT /
Fleeting Expletives last night. What a great day!

The final tally was 28-7, and the A’s had strong production from all over the field. The strong
right side of the infield/short outfield combination of Katy, Sandy, Mary and Kelly dropped
a whopping 12 hits on CDT and scored 9 runs between them. When Mandy “Ass Manager”
Simon wasn’t hurling fleeting expletives at just-out-of-reach fouls, her lightning-fast reflexes
shut down the fleetin’s at the plate. A perfectly solid outfield manned by Toby, Will Smith, and
Aziz contained CDT, while Toby came about 0.00003 millimeters from the catch of the season
(great hustle there, Toby). Skip and Dan “Big” Mach held down the infield with their aggressive
style. And last but certainly not least, MVP Jeremy “I’m gonna throw the ball into that other
team’s infield” Caverly had 5 hits, two of them doubles, and scored every time he reached the
plate. All in all, it was a heck of an effing performance.

But, as glorious as this victory was, especially since it was over former ACLUers, and current
traitor Liz Banaszak, and since it was a wonderful revenge for our short, 2-inning game of a few
weeks back, I’ve also got some bad news. We only have 2 games left. I know, I know. Once
you compose yourself, read on…

On Tuesday of next week we square off against the Complexificationizers, of the Project
Performance Corporation. The game will probably be starting at 6:30, or whenever all of you
feel like showing up. Please let me know if you can come. (And if you need to bail, please try
to give me as much advanced warning as possible)

After that, we have one more game, on the following Tuesday. We haven’t really been too
aggressive in trying to reschedule games, but if folks really want to keep playing, I can try
to schedule us some more (I know what you’re thinking Kelly, but I will try to handle the
rescheduling myself. You’re off the hook). So also please let me know if you’re as devastated
as I am that our season is rapidly winding to a close, and I’ll do what I can to get us another
match or two.

That’s it for now. Great game last night A’s, and I hope you can all make it out next week to
build off this success and/or come cheer us on. Have a nice weekend.

Effing A,
