HAZELDEAN– On August 19th, the SweatSox and Capitals played for the third and final time this year, and despite the fact we committed 7 errors and were out-hit 10-9, we walked away with a 12-9 win, and the 3 goose season sweep.
It was a pretty familiar formula was used to secure the win in this one: good individual pitching, good individual hitting, and great managing. Josh Ramage threw 6 and got those third outs at key times, Eric White went 4-4 with 5 stolen bases, and some creative lineup changes from Authority Cory that saw Craig Cornell bumped to the top of the order for seemingly no other reason than he’s a big dog, and the big dog’s 2-run double in the 3rd ended up plating the eventual game winner.
While the SweatSox were celebrating our glorious victory after the game, Kent Johnston noticed something strange high in the sky. Was it aurora borealis adjacent? No. A glitch in the matrix? Nope. Could it have been 53 SpaceX Starlink satellites that were grouped together and had not yet dispersed? Nah.
Once we turned our night vision cameras on, we could see it was just the banner plane Josh hired to remind us all how he truly feels about us and this team:
