We're going to have the numbers for a full game on a fine morning, this Sunday at Dennison. I'll be there just after 9am, BP is around 9:25, sign in no later than 9:45 for the final First Pitch at 10am!
We're now at an "in-all-likelihood confirmed" 21:
- 18 have said "yes", via email or on the phone - Dave, Charlie, Mike, Jason T., Jeff K., Howard, Zach, Jimmy, Hak, Martin, James, Pete, Tom R., Chuck, Chris, Jared, Brendon, Hugh.
- A mystery player voted "yes" on the blog (identify yourself!)
- 2 co-workers of mine who preferred whiffleball this summer, but promised all year to play, are in.
Scott, Kunal and the long-lost Bill Richards are "maybe" and there are a bunch of regulars who've been called and left a message, so a few more ought to be coming, too...
... and long lost Brent turned up in Florida and Dan Moynihan in San Diego!
Let me know if I have your status above incorrect! But the numbers look strong.
I'm about out of time to work the phone to get to 24. Don't take it personally if you aren't called. I've had small windows at night to call before it gets too late. Just let me know that you're in!
After last weekend's glimpse of what's in store for us all too soon, and with Sunday's temps near 60, we ought to have 40 players! It's going to be a long winter. Play ball!

The Final Finale
Mother Nature scored in the top of the 9th, but we’re coming up for our last at-bat. The week looks dry and this Sunday should be in the mid-to-upper 50’s. One last time, let’s play ball before trading the gloves and cleats for mittens and boots. And perhaps, as Pete suggested, we’ll hit a bar afterward, for some wings and bragging and story-telling.
Count on a game.To gauge interest and to get an accurate count so that we do indeed have a game, I’m going to, through the week, try to call some of the more likely attendees. I’ve called three Luddites, likely to not check here, and all three are coming (Charlie, Mike, Jason.) I've begun, in random order (the order of opt-in from spring) to call guys and the first 10 are locked in already (Me, Charlie, Mike, Jason T., Jared, Howard, Jeff K., Zach, plus two mystery voters.)
If you're one of the two mystery voters, already voting yes, please email me so that I can get an accurate count.
Please don't vote if we've already spoken by phone.
If you've not voted but are coming, email or call instead of voting. (The email is to the right, under "contact".)
I'm determined to get 22 players out there...
