The Lollygaggers opened the season with a couple of nice wins over The Factory, 11-8 and 20-4. We played respectable defense all night, and the bats really came alive in the second game. For the first week of the regular season, you really couldn't ask for much more.
-Gandia began his last season with the Lollygaggers by picking up a win in game #1;
-Bringing some new blood to the team, Will made his debut as a regular, after subbing several times over the years - he is already well on his way toward fantasy softball eligibility at 2B, SS, and 3B;
-Cryan recorded the first out of the season on what was supposedly his first career K - he later struck out by refusing to buy the first round of $2 drafts;
-Henley made his triumphant return to the Lollygaggers by going to the wrong field, but arrived in time to play some solid SS and slap some opposite field hits;
-Steve crushed a HR - probably the farthest I've ever seen him hit the ball; Jim went yard a couple of times, including a nice opposite field shot; I think Keller hit one too, but I kind of stopped paying attention after awhile;
-We only had one fan this week, so props to Erin for coming out, and for being a good enough sport to go to Champps with ten dudes;
-While the Lollygagger defense showed good hands in the field all night, the same was not true of our waitress, who dropped a tray of five beers on the floor;
-Impressively, we were almost able to name the entire late '80s Oakland A's starting lineup and pitching staff, while reminiscing about late '80s/early '90s baseball and video games
The title of this post might get us a few extra hits from stoners doing web searches.

We'll keep track of Cryan's strikeouts and have him pay out at the end of the year. Do I get a prize for being the 1000th visitor to the blog?
