new!!! Latest news

Although we just missed the playoffs, we did tie for second place in a division that had five fairly skilled teams. I expect that this experience will make us stronger for next fall's run at the championship (didn't Todd McLellan say something similar after the Sharks lost to the Black Hawks?). Ironically, we were knocked out of the playoffs by Dance Biscuits for the second consecutive spring (having lost a close game to them in the first round of the 2009 spring playoffs).

Enjoy your well-deserved summer break, and we'll see each other in the fall. For anyone interested in some pick-up games during the summer months, look out for e-mails from Rob Fairlie, coming soon to your e-mail box.

Check out the team photos and pictures taken from the biannual end-of-season team pizza party at Tony & Alba's, which are now posted here.

Line score from the last game

Multiple Scoregasm forfeited their second game of the season when only one player showed up to play. With that forfeit, Re-Entry clinched a tie for second place. Having lost by one run to the other second place team (Team USA), Re-Entry just missed the playoffs by virtue of the tiebreaker (as only two teams from each division qualify for the playoffs).

In order to not let a beautiful afternoon go to waste, the entire 16-person Re-Entry squad joined with the one Multiple Scoregasm player (nothing multiple about that!) and a few hangers-on and Rachael the umpire to play a spirited exhibition game. The game was called after five innings due to the lateness of the hours (and with pizza beckoning).

Howie's Team 7 34 9 4xx 27
The Others 2 52 0 0 x x 9

With no playoff pressure, the Re-Entry players on Howie's team exhibited an awesome display of hitting that generated 27 runs in five innings of play. Leading the barrage, Chris, Glen and Patrick had multi-homerun games, while Howie contributed a complete cycle (single, double, triple and homerun). The cycle was in doubt until the final inning. Having singled in the first, tripled in the second and doubled in the third inning, Howie went for the homerun in the fourth inning by shooting a line drive a few inches fair down the right field line. A superb play by Lilly in right field, which included a quick retrieval of the ball and a very strong throw back into the infield, held Howie to a second triple. But the fifth inning, Howie had one more chance (thanks to the nine run outburst in the fourth inning when the team batted around). So, in the fifth, with Lilly cheating this time toward the right field line, Howie drove the ball down the left field line just a few inches fair. The left fielder could not reach the ball to cut if off, and the rest was a race between batter and fielder. Howie beat the throw home to complete the cycle.

Other highlights included a very stylish head-first slide by Christina into third base ahead of the throw, and a nice catch in deep right field by Rachael the umpire to take extra bases away from David. All Re-Entry players were playing at the top of the game, earning free pizza for their great efforts.

Location of the Softball Fields

All fields are adjacent to the East Field House. The field closest to the swimming pool is Field 1 (for another view click here). Follow the running track in the direction of Monterey Bay to reach Field 2. Keep following the track as it turns, and you will then end up at Field 3, which is the furthest of the three softball fields from the Field House.
