Say hello to Mr. lawildcat tonight and tomorrow night! If it's warm enough, I might even grace you with my presence!

Is that you in the poster? If so, stop by and say Hi!

Yep, that's me! LOL! Welcome to BGP, redtruck!

We got a big-time "cluster-you know what" going on in this tourney. Brossart is not to blame for this either.

Are the games on time? What are the field conditions like?

Field 3 (back field) was the only one ready for play this afternoon. My understanding was that they expected to be about an hour or so behind on the other fields.

Word has it at 8:15am Softball City said fields would be ready, however only one field worker showed up (3 were no-shows) this morning. When I arrived at 4:30 Fields 1&2 were a complete disaster......they resembled a field ready to be sowed. The one worker got Field 3 looking quite playable. At 6:30 both fields 1 &2 were still a "work in progress".

 

Right now Boone Co, Christian Academy-Louisville, & Ludlow are playing at Bartlett Field. Ryle and Lloyd played at Lloyd.

 

Bracket Co. & Simon Kenton dropped out.

Softball City should have called Brossart earlier to let them know fields would not be ready.

Sounds familiar but Brossart shouldn't be surprised as it was just as screwed up last year. Then late in the night they closed a good field and moved games to the crappiest one up front. Remember the NDA Bracken game last year on Friday night. It literally looked like a feed lot where cattle had been walking in between the mound and home plate. Mud holes were six inches deep everywhere they stepped.

They were going to do the exact same thing tonight. Move the HHS v Boone game off of the only decent field. Not exactly who talked to who, but that decision was soon reversed.

Any other scores to report?

HHS 11. Cchs 1. In the first game

Knock pa 6. HHS 5. In the second one

Unfortunately the only thing Rob got right at The City tonight was the parking and collecting the gate. Bracken took their ball and went home dropping out of the tourney because of field conditions. Any amount of rain at all tonight and the fields are washed for tomorrow. This is not BBHS fault, but Robbie D should have to refund money for this one. The outfields are very rough and do not appear to have been mowed at the end of last year. This whole place is in bad shape from fencing to backstop netting. It's a shame because it use to be a great complex.

Caught some of the action....... Watched HHS mount a nice comeback against the favorite losing 6-5 with tying run on second. Impressive group from PA. Shortstop is really good, best I've seen in awhile, very complete player. HHS w/ injury and absences started to show some depth . Future looks good for Birds.
