FH CLINCHES THE ICE CREAM CUP!!!!
I Scream, You Scream, We all Scream for VICTORY!
(Bethesda, MD) - The grass was green, the skies were blue, the beer was cold, and FH was on Fire!! Fans swarmed from near and far, including an injured Nancy Nickerson, the Weintraub family, and the Dillness posse all to cheer on the ever-dominating FH troupe.
Coleman Hutchins has the teams highest batting average...as least as far as we can tell. He delighted the crowd with bomb after bomb into the outfield. Dan Horowitz played like a mad-man on third. He plays the hot corner like Ryan Hanley patrols the bone yard, good.
Kate Morris and Pat Guild played catcher while a Jessica Lass, stood on the sidelines kept the roar of the FH fan base alive and kicking. Randy "Bring it On" Renjillian SMACKED a ball into the air, but was robbed by the GMMB defense. Randy tipped his hat and politely took his place in right field. While in the field Randy stared down a runner, putting the fear of time entry into the poor fellow and forcing him back the bag.
Co-Owner of the FH team, Rob Mooney was in attendance, alleviating tensions between both teams when a runner could not find second base, or claimed as such in a classic late-inning "where's the bag" ploy. The benches cleared, "is she safe or out?!?!?!?!"
The timid staffers turned westward, and there, upon a black stallion, wearing khaki dungarees, sat Rob Mooney ready to make the call. The instant Rob spoke the words "do-over" all fears were quelled. The do-over resulted in another close play and yet another confused counter plot "there are only three outs in an inning? Since when?!!!" FH didn't take the bait and rolled to the dugout to inflict more damage at the plate.
Paul Johnson played excellent defense and gave fans a few rumba lessons as he rocked out to GMMB's theme music. Tara Walker had a double, single, and a triple. Will Sullivan played in another person's shorts forgetting his as the DHS Harpie pecked at his eyes while he ran out his office door (cube opening) and raced to the game in time to whip everyone into an appropriately competitive fervor.
New Intern Josh Hartiq made friends with Super Intern George, both playing extremely well with the time they had.
The team player award will be split between John Anthony and Mike McSherry for playing only two innings but remaining to coach bases and allow others to get some field time.
Matt Scherbel, Bill Garber, and David Wickenden played as beautifully and consistent as ever. The Wizard, The Colonel, and The Meat all were solid, on defense and offense.
FH won the prestigious Rob Mooney Ice Cream Cup, and will enjoy some soft-serve being dished out, at our offices, by the players of GMMB.
Thank you to all who came, BREANNE!! , James Yates and all those who supported from a far.
Next week is a BYE so we're heading to the batting cages. GO FH!
