This would the first kickball game in 4 seasons that I’d have to sit out due to a recent serious elbow injury. While I was really bummed to not be playing, I knew that the Badgers still had plenty of firepower to win against a much revamped and improved Vicious and Delicious.
We got off to our now customary early start, up 3-0 after the first inning. This has been huge for us this season, as it really relaxes the team and we seem to focus better with the early cushion.
I was really impresse with our fielding once again. We play so well as a team, backing one another up and just plain old playing well together. Our situational kicking was really great as well, with our kicks advancing runners even when outs where made. I think we really took a step forward in that regard.
V & D were very tough and would soon tie things up. A competitive tension could be felt during the last few innings. There were some questionable bunt calls on both sides (a very gray area always), but in the end fair play did seem to prevail.
The Honey Badgers held on 6-4 to stay undefeated on the season! A very tough but exciting victory.
