<\/a><\/p>\nThe co-winners of the 2004 A&W Kamloops International Baseball Game MVP award are: Cory Bond and Craig Cornell.\u00a0 GLE threw into the 6th and gave us a chance to win it, while The Consultant went out and won it with his first hit in exactly 69 days.\u00a0 Sexy Eyes also gets a shoutout for making the winning lineup since The Authority doesn\u2019t do anything else when he pitches; The Greatest Hair in the League\u00a0does not get managerial credit for the win however.<\/p>\n
Now that the Odlid is jammed deep in the woods, it can no longer be awarded, which is great news for #12 and his attempt at stealing home.<\/p>\n The Apr\u00e8s Baseball Hyjinx got off to a very special start for me (Shaun Keay) personally.\u00a0 While I\u2019m usually on top of things and rarely astonished, imagine my surprise when the team officially knighted me for all my hard work on the SweatSite, and as a reward they told me not to work on any more updates.\u00a0 They said I earned the rest of the season off, and if I disobeyed their orders I\u2019d be shipped to the Knights; I was still allowed to Tweet though.\u00a0 The SweatSox also said from this point forward, I am to be referred to as: Sir Shaun Keay:<\/p>\n It was also during this Hyjinx that we had to explain to Army #12 how the standings work.\u00a0 This wasn\u2019t a championship boxing fight, so just because we beat the first place team doesn\u2019t mean we\u2019re in first place, in fact we\u2019re still in last, by far.\u00a0 So the answer to your \u201cwho\u2019s ahead of us\u201d question is: \u201ceverybody\u201d.<\/p>\n As for the rest of the evening, as much as I\u2019d like to tell you how & what exactly went down (someone\u2019s leg), I\u2019ve been issued a gag order preventing me from doing so.\u00a0 Much like everything else SweatSox, the story wouldn\u2019t live up to the hype anyways, or would it?<\/p>\n Shoutout to one of the Mark\u2019s who sent me this the following morning:<\/p>\n Looking to build on the momentum of the Cornwall win, the SweatSox took on the Braves 4 days later at the Sportsplex.\u00a0 I don\u2019t remember much about this game, but the boxscore says Eric White had 3 hits including a double plus a stolen base, so lets go ahead and give him the 2004 A&W Kamloops International Baseball Game MVP Award.\u00a0 Honourable mention to Cory Bond for a 2RBI double in the 7th inning that made the final score look like a realatively close game.\u00a0 SweatSox lose 6-4.<\/p>\n The Apr\u00e8s Baseball Hyjinx was hosted by OMG, and featured Chris Lidstone getting a little OMS love.\u00a0 What Lidstrom doesn\u2019t know is that this maneuver can not only cause you to have trouble swallowing (insert your own joke here), your immune system can and will completely shut down, flu-like symptoms will develop, you\u2019ll have to leave work early the next day, and not be able to play baseball the next night.<\/p>\n Apparently, Groves also brought meat:<\/p>\n Later, the SweatSox and Braves put their differences aside and combined the Hyjinx so we could get a front row seat on how you become a Brave.\u00a0 For one reason or another, the Shostappa wanted no part of this at all.<\/p>\n Hours later, the SweatSox found themselves at Summerhays, while the Braves made their way to Summerwelfs.\u00a0 I don\u2019t know who I feel more sorry for, the Braves for leaving before the arm wrestling showdown, or John Groves who missed the world politics & conspiracy theory discussion with the Russian delegation.<\/p>\n The next night, we played the Mudd at Brewer, although “played” could imply that we showed up in some way other than physically; we didn\u2019t.\u00a0 The hitting, pitching, and defense was all questionable; usually at least one part of our game shows up, nothing this time.<\/p>\n Things were so bad, Bus Cop almost convinced us (not really) that the cars at the end of field of dreams were ghost cars, or driven by ghosts, or ghost cars driven by ghosts.\u00a0 Something like that anyways.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
