Phooey! Foiled Again!


The Red Team traveled up to Auburndale tonight for a 6 p.m. game. It took a few scoreless innings but after Carter got a hit (and I even captured action on my smart phone), we finally scored when he eventually made it all the way home, thanks to the next two batters.

For awhile that was the score. Carter's one run over Auburndale's none.

That was nice. Then the home team scored 4 runs in an inning and put us in a hole. Carter got up again and got on with 2 outs. Then the next few batters did a great job and we had runs coming in! Just not enough. Carter pitched the last inning and didn't give up any runs but we were unable to get any more ourselves. So we ended up losing 4-3.

Phooey! Foiled again!

But it was a much better outing than last night. Maybe a little sunshine goes a long way!

Now we (as in Carter's teams) are off until Tuesday so I can enjoy some other activities on my schedule. Do not rule out time at a ball park. Just sayin'. But I will be having some other fun, too, and -- at least for tonight -- getting to bed on time for a change!

Baseball-related laundry is just gonna have to wait.
