“You Must Feel The Wiffle Around You; Here, Between You, Me, The Tree, The Wall, Everywhere, Yes.”
A balanced offense: win games it will.
By pre-game agreement the six wifflers played a seven inning game today - also known as Cardinal Baseball. The home siding J.D., Matt and Pete bested the visiting Mark W., Adrian and Zach by a football score of 10-7. Remarkably, both teams scored 7 runs their half of the third inning, so the home team's three-run second proved to be the difference.
Another statistical oddity: the winners - who only batted for 6 innings - all went 6-for-12. As a group they accumulated 18 hits and made 18 outs. They pretty evenly divided the RBIs as well - JD and Pete each with 3, Matt with 4.
The visitors' attempt at balance fell a little short. Adrian and Mark both went 5-for-12, but Zach's 4-for-11 proved an imbalance in their Wiff.
Balance wins - at least today.
