The game between Hitmen (6-3) and Chico'S Bail Bonds (4-4) had a change of venue for Friday's game. El Dorado Park (where our games are normally played) was under construction for some new light fixtures so welcome Whaley Park. Hitmen's debut at the new park wasn't a good one, losing by seven runs, 17-10.
Batted: 1 for 3, single.

LegalZoom blew a nine point lead with a minute and ten seconds left (missing like 8 of 9 free throws) to play in regulation forcing overtime. Weak!

Hitmen Softball
July 20th, 2007, 6:30 PM PST
Hitmen (6-2) clinched a playoff berth with a win over the Coyotes (3-5) Friday night. The Hitmen used a sixteen run fourth inning en route to an easy win.
I showed up late (3rd inning) and half-asleep due to some killer L.A. traffic. I left work at 3:00 PM PST and the game was at 6:30 PM PST. I showed up at 7:02 PM PST. I did have to drop off someone important!
Batted: 2 for 2, 2 singles.
Note: I will be making my first-start for the Hitmen this Friday at 9:00 PM PST. I made one appearance last season:
1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0.00 ERA
I currently pitch for LegalZoom's softball team.

Doubleheader # 5

Crack Commandos (1-2) ripped LegalZoomA (2-2) Wednesday night, 85-59. LegalZoomA trailed at halftime 43-38.
July 11th, 2007, 9:00 PM PST
Dominicks (1-9) scored four runs in the bottom half of the final inning to beat LegalZoom (3-7), 16-15.
Even though we lost, I'd have to say that it was a fun game; it was close and competitive. I didn't mind losing after seeing just how happy the other team was with their celebration when the winning run crossed the plate. You'd think they just won the World Series or something. It was great.
Batted: 5 for 5, 5 singles.
