We later learned that Josh was working to increase his reaction time from pitch sign to pitch release, hoping to reach a Lenardon-like level.  He could not.  We also learned that he only stopped balking because he realized that balked runs are earned runs, not because the umpire was right.  He did not balk again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Nobody is going to see this tweet, but everyone saw Josh get called for 2 balks in 1 inning.<br><br>?SweatSox 5.<br>?Lumberjacks 3.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ncbl?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@ncbl<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/9S4ZUjG426\">pic.twitter.com\/9S4ZUjG426<\/a><\/p>&mdash; SweatSox (@SweatSox) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SweatSox\/status\/1545574884297818112?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 9, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oh, by the way, with 2 hits tonight I, Shaun Keay, am officially at exactly 400 &#8220;total bases&#8221; for my career.\u00a0 Some say this is the most important stat in baseball, so CONGRATULATIONS to ME.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"http:\/\/sweatsoxbaseball.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Screen-Shot-2022-08-09-at-1.45.03-AM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"454\" height=\"470\" src=\"http:\/\/sweatsoxbaseball.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Screen-Shot-2022-08-09-at-1.45.03-AM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sweatsoxbaseball.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Screen-Shot-2022-08-09-at-1.45.03-AM.png 454w, https:\/\/sweatsoxbaseball.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Screen-Shot-2022-08-09-at-1.45.03-AM-290x300.png 290w, https:\/\/sweatsoxbaseball.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Screen-Shot-2022-08-09-at-1.45.03-AM-300x311.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 454px) 100vw, 454px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">SweatSox vs Lumberjacks Notes\/Thoughts:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>We will never know if assholes are supposed to switch seats or not.<\/li><li>We will never know if Kent invited Josh, or if Josh invited Kent.<\/li><li>Craig Cornell removed Mark Bond.<\/li><li>If Josh said it happened, or didn\u2019t, then it did, or it didn\u2019t.<\/li><li>Josh\u2019s phone is special.<\/li><li>@Craig Cornell can go fuck himself.<\/li><li>You can put a snail in a bucket, but you can\u2019t buy a gorilla.<\/li><li>My profile is magnificent.<\/li><li>Kent\u2019s a shandy.<\/li><li>Kent is not sitting, except in the parking lot at 4:45pm before the game.<\/li><li>Craig was feeling this one, he was a fuck in.<\/li><li>It\u2019s good Josh was ready, cause he\u2019s going.<\/li><li>It\u2019s good Eric was ready, cause he\u2019s going.<\/li><li>Nobody else is going.<\/li><li>Not only was there a Rogers outage, there was a Powers outage (0\/9).<\/li><li>Eric doesn\u2019t appreciate people streaming porn on his hotspot.<\/li><li>Pat Lyons made his 1st (but hopefully not last) appearance at the Hyjinx.<\/li><li>At Darcy\u2019s, the tables are wobbly, the burgers are tasty, and the urinal walls are curvy.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Blessed ?? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Qc72ZKBW6f\">https:\/\/t.co\/Qc72ZKBW6f<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Shaun Keay (@ShaunKeay) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ShaunKeay\/status\/1545033442173280256?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 7, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KANATA&#8211; On July 8th, the SweatSox bested the Lumberjacks 5-3 behind a strong 6-inning performance from Josh Ramage, and a 4\/4 day at the plate (+ a save) for Eric White.\u00a0 Jaspreet Sanghra was the hero of the game, knocking in the tying and go-ahead runs on a 6th inning double to right.
