legggggggggsssssssss.... err I mean brainnnssss... wait, do I ? This evenings game was one for the books. Physics showed up with only 8 players so we assisted them by providing a back-catcher. Only two innings into the game, with one out, an in-field ball was driven making a split second play at first base. The runner made a grave mistake (mmm brainss) by stopping short of the bag (note: always run through the bag) when he realized he was out. In the process, his leg twisted and snapped - resulting in a broken leg. Unknown to us at the time we may have under-estimated the situation, however we stopped play. The ambulance was called immediately and he was taken off the field on a stretcher.
Afterward, the physics team showed great strength in wanting to continue the game so we swapped in some players for their defense. As our captain (courageously and bluntly) stated, we won via forfeit and the free pitcher of beer was ours.
The TSN turning point of the game would have to be given to our unknown physics player who was carried off in the stretcher (refer to photo; credit: David). After which, the physics team could not officially continue... so I'm really stating the obvious here. Other honorable mentions go to the entire team, for staying safe.
We welcome a new Zoombie today - Aaaron LeFort.
Is it just me, or does everyone look a little too happy in that picture, given that they're loading someone into an ambulance?
