That'll Work!!!

Well Dead money continued to climb up the winners bracket of the post-season playoffs in Minnetonka on Tuesday night.  The first round was a breeze, taking down the far inferior Silver Bullets.  We were determined to not repeat what happened last year in the first round.  15-1 was the final score in that game.

The second game proved to be a bit more complex and difficult, as it was expected to be.  The Dirty Grizzlies have been a difficult opponent for the last couple of years and it was nice to get a win against them in the playoffs, even if it was only by one point.  We managed to have a 7 run inning that was the defining point in the game where their shortstop botched a couple of plays.  This game definitely was all about the defense.  We played well, but not as well as we could have, and not as well as we should next week when we have three of our top players returning from vacation.  Two of them are team leaders in batting average, and all three of them are amongst our top power hitters.  And defensively, their return will make us almost unstoppable.

There was a phrase that defined one of the games last night.  "That'll work", was spewed numerous times by an opponent.  Unfortunately for the opponent, that phrase seemed to apply more to Dead Money!
