Re-Cap of Pierce, Hearns Game (Thursday, May 11th, 2006)


With all of the similiar drama experienced by Doug Mariavelli's return to the Boston Red Sox to play against the Yankees, the Machine was able to return two starters: "Cut Off" Chris Williams came back from the boat and the Machine's owner,Tom McsTighebrenner inked a multi-million dollar deal to steal the Caped Crusader Owings away from a competing team. However, it was George Morrison's departure from the sidelines to the starting line-up which carried the most fanfare.

In the dugout: Tom McsTighebrenner started the show for the Machine in the second inning with a drop in front of the plate that he dug deep to beat the throw at first. Tom hit 3 for 3, getting a single each chance he got to the plate. The King (George) of Swing showed he hadn't lost his touch and walked away with 4 singles of his 5 trips to the plate, notching an RBI on his belt in his first game. "Cut Off" Chris Williams held down the hot corner and hit 4 singles with one RBI. Capers showed that he was worth every penny hitting two triples, a double and a single, with 2 RBIs. Turner, Turner Afterburner lived up to his namesake and showed us the same competitve wheels that held their own against the Kenyans in the Boston Marathon. Turner had three RBIs, two singles and what his Afterburners turned into two in-the-park-homers, but Janet scored as a double and a triple-sorry Turner. WTB's "Side-Kick" Sally Boone came in the game at the top of the 5th, she was able to put a single on the board in her short time in the game. New comer Adrienne Briles had a slow start at the plate, but Bagger Vance helped her find her swing in the 3rd inning, starting a streak of 3 singles and one RBI. Christina "El Cid" Davis held down the action behind the plate and two single, notching an RBI along the way. What was the Bradford (Hiers) report this year? Brad actually only hit one pop-up as he went 3 singles and 1 double. Good job Bobo! Bucky Ryan (a true baseball name, better than if I wrote it myself) came in for Tom in the 4th inning and although he felt his bat was a little light, he still managed a triple and two singles. Bucky did impress the Skipper with a close attempt for a throw out at first from the short out position. Jay-Bird hit around with a single in both the 6th and 7th innings, a double in the 3rd, a triple in the 3rd (Yes, we batted around) and a home-run in the 5th inning. I wanted to congratulate Jay-Bird on a fine outing, but David Hasselhoff called and said we needed to re-evaluate things before we go patting people on the back. Corbett "Two-Cans" Coats opted out of her normal warm-up routine, and showed us that she took the advice from her Uncle Emerill-ANOTHER NOTCH! That's right folks Corbett was holding down second, pulling first off as well as Bobo and hitting better than Trabert! Jim Trabert did start things off with the team's first in-the-park-homer of the year. (Go George Go!) I digress; Corbs lead the Machine with 4 RBIs, hitting 2 singles and a triple; and they thought they should come in on a cute little girl, NOT this cute little girl, she hit better than most of the guys on Pierce, Hearns.

Not that the score reflects how the Machine left Pierce, Hearns as dead as Dillinger; they were a formidable opponent. Pierce, Hearns' Casey B "at bat" had Bobo and Jay-Bird a blush while at the plate. However, the Machine showed they can come together as a team and play with the best of them. Sure, we did get "lucky" on a few plays, but so did P. H. Obviously their ability to score 17 runs shows that they too came out to play. We just happened to want it more. Congratulations to the McNair Machine and our first victory!

Scoreboard
Teams Innings 1/2 3/4 5/6 7/R
McNair 0/4 11/1 2/8 4/30
Pierce, Hearns 2/7 5/0 0/1 2/17

(I promise I am not using subliminal messaging in this re-cap.) Go Mighty McNair!
