The split, not a word you associate with wholesome goodness. For example, the beloved 10-6 split in bowling. I've been playing Wii bowling with Claire and have come across that pin setup one too many times. You know the one where you have to try to knock one pin clear across the alley to knock down the other. Yeah right! Other infamous splits: Britney and what's his name, Brooklyn and the Dodgers, the Partridge family, and the banana split. Wait, that's a good one. Anyway, the point in this little blog is to split is bad.
However, the way we are playing it was good to split yesterday. After yet another offensively stagnate game which we lost 3-0, we were down yet again 4-0 in the fourth inning. We were going quietly into the night, couldn't get anyone to get that two out hit and time was running out. Then just like that we were patient at the plate, drew some walks, had timely hitting and tied the game at four. Our bullpen put up zeroes in the fifth and sixth and we scored a two-out run in the bottom of the sixth and gave the lead to our closer in the seventh. He came in and struck out two, including one looking to end the game and we salvaged a split on the night.
The way it's been going the previous week, I'll take it!
