ECC classic day two

I was able to sleep in a little bit today. By about one hour. I had to get to Kent for day two of softball. We went out and played our first game against the Rockets. It was a close game compared to the others. We only won by a run or two. I played first base. I did not have a great bat today, but I was able to get something going.

We had a little break until our next game. I found some shade and chatted with Gabe and Jeffrey. Then we went to watch another D-League game. We were watching the team from Arizona play a local team. I was rooting for the Arizona team, but the others wanted the local team.

The Arizona team ended up coming back and winning. We went to play Diamonds. We had crushed them on Saturday. No one was hitting and we were flat. We lost the game by three runs. So now we were in the losers bracket.

The next game was right after the first one. We played an all women's team. There were some girls on the team that up until we played them I thought were guys. I was quiet surprised. We beat them by a six to nothing shut out.

We had a few minutes off until our next game. I was going to pitch. For some reason I have a problem in my head. I cannot pitch my best out there. I actually did pretty well. My hitting was okay. I had a three run inside the park homerun. That was the best part for me. I was looking down the right field line. I hit a screamer down the line. It went deep.

I was rounding second on my way to third. I was watching for the basecoach. He final sent me. I made it home without a problem. I was pumped! We were winning. Then they had a good inning. Soon we lost the lead and the game.

We ended up losing the game. We were disappointed. We got second place in the tournament. I went home after that and changed. I showered up because I was all sweaty and dirty.

I spent the rest of the night relaxing. I did not have anything I had to do. I just chatted online for quiet a while. I was talking with a guy named Kale from Arizona. He was very nice. He is a hard-core Republican. We were talking about church. Being gay. As well as a few other issues. It was great to talk with him. I like that guy a lot. He is very open.
