Season 5 has started in typical 4-2 OBI (formerly known as One Bad Inning) fashion,,, with a string of Strong Split City efforts. Case in Point:
Week 1 -- OBI could Not Not hit in a Game 1 3-inning win vs. No Glove. The final score was 27-3. OBI scored 9 in the first, 11 in the second,,, then a weak 7 in the top of the 3rd. Oh the humanity ... Game 2, Split City showed up and went oppo in a nasty way. OBI scored 2 runs in the bottom of the 6th inning to pull ahead and win the contest in fine fashion,,, errr,,, 2-0. Definitely a Fail Category if the Defense had not shown...
Week 2 -- Warning Track Power is always a competitive opponent. In game 1, OBI consistently battled on offense and defense, earning a run rule victory in 5 innings of 17-2. Then,,,, Split City showed and the balls of WTP bats began to fall onto green. A second run rule ensued as Split City took it on the chins 25-6.
Week 3 -- OBI was able to muster a stand in Game 2 and once again make Split City a reality. 3-3 Murphy's Law rode an 8 run third inning to a 13-5 victory in Game 1. Then 4-2 OBI brought their bats (and Murphy's Law fielders forgot their gloves) and down 3 in the top of the 6th put up a 9 spot to take a 23-17 lead. A two-run inside the park homer brought the final to 23-19. However, good Defense by OBI kept the LawBoys down... Especially in game 1 as OBI played with 3 outfielders on Field 4.
Consistency has been our mantra it seems. Split City for the new team name will be on this years mid-term political ballot. There are interesting times to come... So are the stats,,, coming anyways... Will post along with Week 4's outcome this weekend. Stay Tuned !!!
