Game Summaries:

August 14, 2008
A rematch with Teichert for the title! Numb starts out OK, builds a little lead, and is ahead 4-1 at one point. Lack of offense dooms us in the long run, and we fall in extra innings 5-4. Leading hitters were Matt, 3-4, triple, run, 2 rbis, Rootbeer Haley, 2-4, run, and Numbmaster, 2-4, rbi. One hit wonders were Big Art, rbi, Justin, and Dale. Yes, thats it. JT made the last out of the game. A week off then Fall. Hit the cages!!

August 7, 2008
A rematch with Yung Gunz. No 4 run cushion this time. One of the more interesting games in a while. Both teams have trouble scoring, and Numb leads by a precarious 4-2 going into the top of the 6th. One run in, one runner on then all hell breaks loose. 3 walks, 2 errors later and Numb is down 5-4. Only Matt's fine catch stops the bleeding. Numb regroups and ties it, and with the bases loaded Dave Hunn smacks a grand slam to give Numb a 9-5 lead. In the top of the 7th, the Gunz bring home a run then leave the last out at home. Numb wins 9-6! Leading hitters were Numbmaster, 3-3, 2 runs, Hugo, 2-2, triple, run, Matt, 2-3, double, 2 runs, Big Art, triple, 2 runs, 3 rbis, and Dave Hunn, 2-3, grand slam, run, 4 rbis. One hit wonders were Bradley, Rootbeer Haley, run, Troytus, and Hannaman. Next up, a chance at the title! Justin made the last out of the game again?

July 31, 2008
Numb faces the Big Bat Daddies. Hard to tell if they are really daddies or not, if so, they are young daddies. Numb jumps out to score 10 runs in the first 2 innings, and the stunned Daddies do not recover and lose 16-7. The well rested leading hittes were Rootbeer Haley, 4-4, double, 4 runs, Jeff 'the Hammer' Williams, 2-3, triple, 3 runs, 3 rbis, Numbmaster, 2-3, 2 runs, 3 rbis, Dave Hunn, 2-3, triple, run, rbi, JT, 2-3, 3 rbis, and Big Art, 2-4, triple, run, rbi. One hit wonders were Justin, 2 runs, 3 rbis, Hannaman, rbi, and Dale.
Next up, rematch with the Yung Gunz. Justin made the last out of the game.

July 24, 2008
Numb plays Young Guns. Numb wins, and loses. Here is the scoop. Numb scored 2 runs durning the course of the game, Young Guns scored 3. However, Young Guns did not have enough players to start the game and Numb was awarded 4 runs. So the final, official score is Numb wins, 6-3. Tired from all the hitting last week, leading hittes were Big Art, 3-3, rbi, and Dave Hunn, 2-3, rbi. One hit wonders were Brad, 2 runs (THE 2 runs), Hugo, JT, Justin, Hannaman, and Stan the Man, who also made the last out of the game.

July 17, 2008
Rumor has it that Numb crushed the Souls 23-0.

July 10, 2008
In an game that required two new recruits to make 10, Numb hangs on to beat Schilling Robotics 11-9. Numb invited (begged) the Father/Son team of Don and Will (his son) to fill-in for an evening. Don, a "Return-to-the-game" player at Wallace-Kuhl, dragged his boy , a '"Never-played-the-game", visually challenged young man, to bulked up the team. Don played right field, while Will caught.
Spotty play and erratic hitting made for a close game. Schilling started hot, cooled off, and had a late rally. Power balls off the bat of Art, two remarkable catches from Will from behind the plate, a host of strike-outs from the mound (go figure), allowed Numb to squeak by to win in the bottom of the 6th inning. Fortunately, Schilling wasn't able to mount another charge to take the lead. In a twist of fate, Art owes beer, because, as Steve came up to bat, with only one out, time was called.
Update by JT

July 3, 2008
Numb loses to Jos Heroes, 7-4. No hitting, crappy defense. Leading 'hitters' were Rootbeer Haley, 1-1, run, Papa Williams, 2-3, run, Hugo, 2-3, rbi, and JT, 2-3. One hit wonders were Numbmaster, run, rbi, Big Art, run, rbi, and Troytus. Thats it.

Numb beats Those Guys, 14-7. Have no memory of the game. We hit well. Leading were Hannaman, 2-2, 3 runs, rbi, Hugo, 3-4, run, Dale, 3-4, double, 3 runs, 3 rbis, Jason, 3-4, 3 rbis, Bradley, 2-4, run, rbi, Dave, 2-4, triple, run, 2 rbis, Jeff W, 2-4, run, JT, 2-4, run. One hit wonders were Numbmaster, run, rbi, and Art, double, run.

First game of the summer and Numb faces Teichert. A very strange game. Numb cannot seem to cleanly field a ball, and Teichert has a couple of ringers in the mix, one of whom brought a bunch of illegal bats and they get caught twice. Doh! The scorekeeper falls asleep and gives Teichert an extra run somehow and Numb loses 10-9. Not that we deserved the victory, but what a mess.
None of Ed's wunderkinds show up (Matt and Nathan) so Numb has to rely on oldsters to hit. Leading were Numbmaster, 4-4, 4 rbis, Dale, 3-4, run, rbi, Papa Williams, 2-3, triple, 2 runs, rbi, Rootbeer Haley, 2-4, run, and Hugo, 2-4, triple, run, rbi. We got 16 hits, but only 9 runs. One Hit Oneders were Bradley, 2 runs, Big Art, rbi, and Hannaman, run.
Looks like Dale made the last out of the game. Maybe.
