The Gambler

On a warm summers night
In a park out in Pincourt
Blue met with the Red team
and they were both too hot to play
And Red just took their turns
cranking balls over the fences
But the 2 run rule took over
and Blue began to speak

They said "Red We've made a livin,
out of popping little singles,
and knowing where they'll hit it
by the way they put their feet
so if you don't mind us saying
we can see you're out of homeruns
after a couple shots of whiskey(happy bday cloune and Joel)
We'll give you some advice

You've got to know when to hold at second (Philippe)
Know when to send him
Know when to take a walk
Know when to run
you never count the score
when you're standing in the box
there'll be time enough for countin'
While taking off your socks

Great game played in ridiculous heat. Dagenais, Heroux, Shaughnessy, and Fulvio all go 4/4. Langlois hit's a monster grand slam. Dillon adds two more to his league leading HR total bringing it up to 19. Golden boot nomination goes to Blue's own Philippe Dagenais who may now be known as the Gambler trying to turn a stand up double into a triple but not checking the coach holding him or if there's a man on third and the ball already in the infield. This incited a rundown which Wayne tried to alleviate by heading home but he got caught out by about 3 feet. Let's keep that type of foolishness for La Cloune Magique. When the night was said and done a game that was 13-10 for Red in the 5th came out to be 21-13 for Blue. I hope Red had a pool at their BBQ!
