Hudsonville Invitational thoughts/recap

Quotes

Nick Tuori on Hudsonville dugout-" "it's like pitching to a dugout of softball girls that all hit an awkward level of puberty."

Mitch Horgan after Paas told Chris to touch the plate-"Paas you're stupider than a (expletive) turtle. (Jason) and slower than one too!"

Paas-Chris Step on the plate! (Dugout screams) Paas you idiot there's no force! Atta baby Chris good play kid.

Mr Tuori after Coach Giles got ran- Hey blue so you're gonna watch him leave the park? Wow first thing you've seen all day!

Mr Coon when we finally got 2 called strikes in a row- ay hey! Would ya look at that?!

Thoughts- So Hudsonville in April was a lot colder then when I was playin for the state semi finals there mid November, there field is gorgeously amazing. I mean they had a minor league comparable bullpen..at home we have no bullpen! So lived the bullpen life today and came in to relieve Zeman. Pitched great first inning then couldn't find the strike zone inning number two. So 1.1 innings for me I got a 12.27 ERA, a Hold and a Blown Save on the year. Not great numbers but I'll figure it out with some more opportunity provided I get one. Game two I actually got my first PA of the year! Like all relief pitchers I promptly struck out..no surprise there. But the second field was dumpy probably still better than ours though. We legged one out w/o Carl as our skipper and Joshy filled in and did a heck of a job but lucked out Adams knew how to finish because he had Mike set to pitch next oh my what a disaster that could have been! But we took third and I still love this squad and my role as a bullpen pitcher and I'll embrace it for life because that's my shot in the future, so I'll keep grinding trying to get more holds or saves and lower my ungodly high ERA. Talk to y'all Tuesday. Shout out to my most frequent readers Keegs and Stehlik and to my Germans keep reading. Auf Wiedersehen my home squad. #BULLPEN
