Game #17: July 13, 2011

Wiffle History is Made

Remember this new rule?

Well, guess what happened this evening, on the 999th At-Bat of the season.

Yup. Dave put one through the hoop - the west hoop as a matter of fact. With his team down 4-0 in their last at bats as a matter of fact. Off the only remaining pitcher with a 0.00 ERA (Chris Anderson) as a matter of fact.

Frankly, from the outfield, it was not at all apparent that the ball went through the hoop (you can see that the net is damaged) and the ball went through the hoop without hitting the net. But it was clear from the instantaneous and simultaneous reactions of Dave and his team mates that it did go through the hoop.

Congrats, Dave.  You are forever a part of OW&AC history!

Dave, Peter, Tim - 4
Chris, Kurt, Matt - 4

The most remarkable tie-game EVER!
