First Softball Boo-Boo of the Season

Last night, the weather was absolutely perfect for a double-header softball game. Seriously, I wish it could be like that all year.

I was catching both games last night. During the first game, we were losing badly. Our power hitters were slamming it right into the glove of the left fielder as though his glove had a magnet and the ball was made of iron. He almost didn't have to move.

While others were feeling the burn, I wasn't giving a damn, which is the best way to play.

One of the opposing batters got up, hit the ball, and promptly slung the bat behind him... right at me. I'm not sure which of my usual colorful explicatives escaped as it hit me, but the umpire noticed and chewed him a good one. His team was far more apologetic than the batter himself. He said he was sorry and it happens in the course of the game. Still, he was pretty careless with the bat the next time around. The ump called him out on that too.



My bicep was red, and turned this lovely purplish color by this morning.

My first softball ouchie of the year.

Sounds like the umpire thought the batter was rude too... shoulda kicked his ass!

Do you need some pampering to comfort you in your time of hurty?
