Today NBF hosted the final event of the 2021 Regular Season. It was a blinding morning, dominated by the Sun and some even more dominant pitching. Eventually the Visiting Team of Adrian, Hans, Tom, and Zach let their guard down and Team Halen de Andy, Eric, Jim, Jeff, and Pete were able to load 'em up and their lanky leadoffman launched a lusty lunchmeat-laden longball. That one swing was basically the game, scorewise. Fielding-wise though, the game saw more than the usual number of awesome catches and some near-miraculous almost-hadits. Jim's near-catch of a line drive that was absolutely scorched right over his throwing shoulder being one. The other one being Zach managing to wipe away tears of pure liquified cornea long enough to reel in a mile-high popup that required him to stare directly at the Sun for way longer than one ought to.
Season Batting Awards: According to Stats, Jeff's 4-for-8 today was sufficient to earn him the Triple Crown. Nicely done, sir! That hotly contested race between Zach and Jeff was a fun little cliffhanger to end the year on, attaboys to both.
Adrian, Hans, Tom, Zach - 6 hits, 0 runs
Andy, Eric, Jim, Jeff, Pete - 12 hits, 5 runs
HR - Andy (GS)
