"U-G-L-Y, You Ain't Got No Alibi! You Ugly! Yeah, Yeah! You Ugly!"
- Ugly. That's the only way to describe last weeks "game". Top to bottom we looked pretty bad. Way too many errors, produced nothing at the plate, and some base running blunders. Not the end of the world and granted, we played one of the best teams in the league, but in order to beat those teams, we're going to have to play 120 percent. Last week, we gave it about 12.
- Game 7:
- Bears 1
- Charter 10
Season: 3-4
==========================================================
The Positives & Negatives (We're gonna pair 'em up):
- Defense: Errors. Plain and simple. Too many errors and in no way can you give a team like that extra outs. Never ends well.
- Pitching: Actually, this wasn't that bad. Bennett "Movement" Beckenstein pitched a good game. They got some hits but we did nothing behind him to help in out. No run support isn't helpful either. Has to be a complete puzzle. By the time relief came in, it just didn't matter.
- Hitting: Oof. Except for Dan "Clang Heard Around Clinton DeWitt" Lee's lead off jack that was or wasn't, the book is bleak at best. That was the one and only plated run. Sadly, we had opportunities, but just never cashed in.
==========================================================
And now it's time for the Bears "Geico Player of the Game Award"! This award is given to the player or players that show outstanding play in the field, at the plate, or in the bar. Whether it be heroic, game saving, or shatting one's pants sliding into third, this award is akin to saving a buddies life in combat.

And now, presenting this weeks winners... Dan "The American Man With The Asian Name" Lee!!!!
"First batter. Second pitch. Daniel swings with Charter pride crushing force to launch a bomb to left that whacks the pole and leaves the field. Controversy ensues but Blue wags his finger and sends him around. Hope and thoughts of taking this one start to stir. Hopefully, we all savored that one magnificent run."
Congratulations you culturally confused S.O.B, you are this weeks Bears "Geico Player of the Game"!!!

It's time for another episode of "Overheard/Thoughts at the Bar".
Adam: "Where's your bachelor party?"
Jarrett: "I'm having two!"
Tan girl takes picture of me. I smirk.
Pete: "That's ending up on BlueBalls.com."
John: "I'm going to give you a big hug."
Adam: "Say you're wrong."
Rob: "We need a team psychologist."
- Thoughts:
1: Malosh two weeks in a row!!!!
2: Lets kiss and make up!
3: Jose is an enigma.
4. Leyland is Buddy's dad.
==========================================================
Other Business: Everyone is pretty much paid up. One peep is light but I will get with him.
NEXT GAME: Wednesday, July 15th, 6:10 PM, vs. Dub Squad - Field 2.
I heard rumors these guys are beatable this year. If we play like last week, no chance. Let's not play like last week. Simple, right?
Quick Cap Note: Thanks a ton for all coming out last week. It is appreciated for sure. Yeah, a little too much "arguing" but my feeling is it's because we do care and when passion and Natty Lights mix, well, there you go. Also, this loss is really no big deal. We did ourselves a HUGE service taking that double header so we're still in the drivers seat for the playoffs.
See you Wednesday...
