One highlight of my brief softball career this summer...

We (as in Frankfort COG) beat one of the Eastland teams like a rented mule at the Morehead tournament. The top 5 batters (I batted 2nd) went 17-20 that particular game.

Nathan - you rock dude! That is awesome, especially the whipping of Eastland "like a rented mule"! Ha - lol.

Nice. You are the perfect #2 hitter 4 sure.
