That's the night I just had in a nutshell. We got to the field and Juston had picked up a turtle and it was wandering all over the field. It kept escaping the dugout and had to taken out to the woods before game time. The game was long, about 3 1/2 hours or so with runs going back and forth all night but finally ending with a win 13-8 over the newest TCL team the Brazos Valley Bombers. Highlights include Haji Arif coming to the game, Jose hitting a triple, Eric getting hit by a pitch, Heath in his first home game going 2 for 3 with 4 RBI, a pitcher with 6 straight outs and Dan even came for the game and stayed the night. The pitcher for the Bombers was Brice Ary from our 2006 team so Eriq had a nice chat with him as the game ended. Then we were headed to Whataburger but Eric and Jose decided to eat the Chick-Fil-A (team dinner) on the back of Eric's truck so it was just Eriq and I in our car at the light when we got bumped from behind. I looked back and said is that a player that just hit us and it was Heath, the guy we had just been talking to and was going up to Whataburger with us. Then of course the light turns green (which usually takes forever) so we all pulled into the empty lot across the street followed by his girlfriend who didn't know where we were going. He was so worried and apologetic but there's no more than tiny paint transfer on the bumper so we all got back in the cars and Julie called so I had to tell her that her new "son" had just hit us. They were wondering where everyone was...thankfully the rest is uneventful. Tomorrow is an off night so Eric is going out with some guys, I'm going to go catch some tv and Eriq is going to bed so he can work in the morning. Goodnight!
