Coach Jim Mora answers your questions about playoffs for our Softball team

Many of you have asked about Playoffs and the truth is I don't know. Comm-Seek has a bunch of make-up games being played this week and I am assuming the out-come of those games will dictate the Playoffs. I'd like to see every team in the playoffs but I am not sure what Seekings has planned.

The Machine did go 3-7 this season, but in our defense, we had trouble getting everyone out to the games on a consistent basis and we did face some tough opponents. But to answer your playoff questions, watch the video of Coach Jim Mora, courtesy of CBS Sports.

Parker Forfeits! The Machine is 3-7 for the Regular Season...

Our regular season finished today as Mc-Angus-Parker-Lock forfeited our make-up game. I am not sure if Parker feared the Powerhouse of the Machine, the 115 degree heat or simply they had too many people out for social events. Regardless, McNair finished 3-7 (.428) in the regular season.
It had to be the pizza
Sadly, I am not sure what we will do to burn off the extra energy and calories from the carb-loading-lunch orchestrated by Penny and Joan (thank you ladies) but I am sure there is an office-wide “whewww, thank goodness-we don’t have to go out there” about to commence after I press the send button.

I’ll keep you updated if I hear anything about the playoffs.

Final Regular Season Game Tonight @ The Navy Base


I never thought that I would write this, but tonight (thankfully) we are headed back to the Navy Base to play our final regular season game against Parker/Carlock. Game time is at 6:30 pm. Please e-mail me if you can or can not make it so I can get the roster together. Also, same rules of hydration apply as Tuesday’s game. Please sip water throughout the day to maintain your level of hydration and body temperature.

The Machine Dropped Another

The Machine dropped another game, this one against the Young-Clems 15-5. “Baby Face” Bolden scored 2 runs. Jet scored 1 run. The “Hammer” Mike Scarafile scored 1 run and Rosie scored once for our runs. The Machine had a rough go at it last night with the heat and the dead bats as we tried to fill in the holes on the roster; luckily we had Julie to fill in for us to prevent the forfeit.

We have two games left to salvage what’s left of the season, both of which are this next week: Tuesday August 7th, we play against the Usual Suspects on John’s Island and Thursday August 9th against Carlock, McAngus-I haven’t heard where the game will be yet, but it will probably be at the John’s Island facility.

Keep your chin up gang, we’ve had a rough go at it lately, but we are still playing pretty good ball out there and we can still finish the season slightly under .500.
