4-0, Here comes Central

It's kind of funny. When I was first introduced to softball at Central, I was casually interested. I wasn't really into it a whole lot, just kind of thought it was a good way to get off the couch and get the potato chips out of my hand.

But now, after a rookie season that ended early due to injury, I find myself into it more than I ever thought I would.

We are 4 games into the season, Central is 4-0. Yesterday we beat St. John's Catholic 21-0.

After the first 4 games, I'm 5 for 9 with 1 walk, 1 sac fly, 5 RBI, and 1 Run scored. I'm still new to slow pitch softball, it's difficult to say if that is a good batting line or not. A few things concern me though. Our team has scored a lot of runs. I've only scored 1. I suppose that's not my fault. I'm not getting thrown out on the bases, they're just leaving me stranded.

It's tough to say if the 5 RBI is a good total or not. 2 of those RBIs tied a game in the bottom of the last inning...setting up the next batter for a walk off single.

We can debate all we want on if that is a good batters line or not, but I think we can safely say that I'm not hurting this team.

I'm having fun this season. I'll probably post a few more updates on Central's quest to regain the championship.
