Clearly, we will not get 18 guys to the field today. The field is in good shape - because someone has torn up the grass for drainage near first base, endangering their permit! But it's raw and the forecast calls for rain.
But no recent rain has yet come to Framingham and I'm up for taking it as far as anyone would like. Throw? BP? Drills?
I will not go to the field unless someone contacts me via email or phone that they will also be there. Get in touch if you want to get some exercise!

Between 8:19 and 9am, I've had a nice chat with Pete, and only Pete. He's enthusiastic about playing until the snow flies. But not today. And no one yet has confirmed that we will be doing anything today. If no one else contacts me, I'm hitting the pillow at 9:45 .. and then rooting for the Orioles.
-----------
(9:35am) Jim will also play til the snow flies, but not today. And the drizzle has begun. Go O's. Go to bed. Go out with your SO other today so that you're free to play ball next week!

How Will It Alll End?
Attendance has been an issue, but don't let it keep you from playing!
While there was not an abundance in attendance last week, and so we did not have the Old vs. Young Game, those who played had some fun as we had a game with stealing bases, instead. And there were enough players the week before for a "regular" game.
While murky and chilly, there looks to be a dry window to play tomorrow!
After this week, there will be a "poll" here, to "vote" on how often and when you will play from here on out. The point of it is so that we all can know when the final game will be.
Play ball ... before the snow flies!

The Old vs. Young Game
The Battle of the Ages is on. We got enough last week to be encouraged for the upcoming, so as long as the turnout is good tomorrow, The Geezers and The Brats will battle!
When signing in (no later than 9:45 for the 10am First Pitch), also put down your age in years and months. Typically the split is around 32, but it depends on who is there. Play ball!

Whachadoing?
Log off and get to the field!
(Yep, I overslept, but the gear is at the field already!)

Maybe Probably
I passed the field on my way home from being out of the area
all day. Don't know how much it rained there today and it was raining lightly at 3am, but there isn't a puddle on the
field. So if it's not raining come morn, we're on. I'll post on the blog around
8:15am. Call if you can't wait that long.

Enthusiasms
"A man becomes preeminent, he's expected to have enthusiasms.
Enthusiasms... Enthusiasms... What are mine? What draws my admiration?
What is that which gives me joy? Baseball!" ~ Robert De Niro, as Al Capone, "The Untouchables"
"This Sunday Sunday Sunday! Monster Truck Zach Sherman brings nearly a year of rust and a summers worth of swinging golf clubs to the MWBA! Come one come all!" ~ Zach Sherman, as a baseball player.
