Yes I know. The Fishermen have lost and I am the turkey. In life, the stupid guy it’s the one who don’t know that he is stupid, and for me I know so I just can improve. So as first lesson, I will wait after the game to shout victory. But it is still 9-6 for the Fishermen, (I don’t understand, I wrote in my last article, that the Fishermen were leading 8 -6, so it should be 8-7, but in fact it is 9-6.......hum I forget how to count or the commish have
update the site). Anyway we are still leading, and that is the most important.
For the game, the most represented team was Charlottetown this year, who had 6 guys on the field, followed by Saskatoon with 4 guys, equal with Cold Lake and four team sent 3 guy , Toronto ,Guelph ,Vancouver , and Quebec. When I see that, I am thinking about one thing: why not to select the all-star game starter and allow each team to select one of his best guy , so like that each team could be represented .it could bring more interest in all cbl cities .Imagine the al-star night in PEI , this city is enough boring like that cause you have simply nothing else to do , apart fishing and sex , so it would bring defenitivly some action in the
city , if at least one guy from this team would be there .I heard you guys say well , who you could sent there smart ars ??? the bat boy??? You are problably right , but even the batboy there could be a star for one night ,and if the batboy is not good enough , just send the pretzel guy but send someone , to keep interest in the small market as PEI .Everybody know each other ,in a small town ,so all the city could be there watching .We have to protect the small market ,
and it could be good for the league to change the all-star formula.But it is just an idea .
Let 's see the game now ! Wayne ( the soup) campbell , start the game as the Fishermen were receiving this year ! The two first batter , Burrel and faulk , hit flyballs in the outfields , caught by revelez and warner , plank the third batter hit a single to the centerfield, menderson hit a double again in centerfield , but broadus hold plank at the third base with a strong relay at the third .hum , it start to smell bad when sarrett arrive at the plate , but campbell decide to give him a walk.All the base , are taken when bill dennis hit a fly ball to mc yett who brillantly caught the ball for the third out.the bottom first begin with hanky warner who hit a single , broadus the second batter hit a single too , and warner reach the third .No out there , and we can see the steam getting out the ears off pickle stackpole the game starter for farmer .ouch ! revelez arrive at bat , but unfortunatly hit a fly ball at the second base ,yett the power batter of the Fishermen lineup , (and two times all-star mvp ) just hit a fly ball at the right field caught by menderson , notice there that warner is still a the third , too afraid to test menderson arm.Richard (the beer ) miller , arrive at bat , and we can see few tears in stackpoles faces , miller hit a double , warner and broadus score a ru on this double.2-0 Fishermen when nixon arrive at the plate to hit a fly ball in right field to end the fist inning..
The second inning start with lynn (the pennywise) Mize (in term of hit) , and hammond at the plate .Hammond is not recognize to turn around the pot and hit
the first pitch of mize direclty over the leftfield fence .1-2 Fishermen when , Mize , sincerly pissed off have retire the following batters in a row,ingerton oberkfell and burrel ,all with ground ball in the infield.the bottom of the second where Fishermen were leading 2-1 start with frank clark as pitcher .ducotey , stark and matsumoto are the 3 next batter , and clark seem to be calm .inside the cbl , this guy is recognize to fear nothing ( except his mother in law , who at 425 pounds ,is so called the queen of the hot-dog in vancouver stadium stand , and have alredy sit on clark brest one day where he was expecting to go outside with some friends to keep him at home , he suffer injury at the lung , and have miss a month for that) .So as i said , clark faithfull to his reputation , have retire those 3 batter in line .
The third innings see apllenmen come as pitcher to met in order , faulk , plank and menderson .as the two first are easily retired , menderson reached the first
base on a ground ball at the shortstop .....................and we have seen the manager of the Fishermen , jeannot theberge yelling at his shortstop , ducotey , and tell him to stop to sleep.But applemen have taken charge of sarrett , striking him out in 3 pitch .when tarrence is unhappy , you need slow motion replay to see
the ball .still 2-1 at the bottom of the plate , when alfonso cole the new star of lethbridge and maybe the rookie of the year arrive to meet in order , warner broadus and revelez, and yett as fouth hitter.........some dirty tong report have seen cole calling his mother in the top inning.But cole start nicely , and force warner to hit a ground ball at the secon base .aparently nervous ahead broadus , he walk him .revelez the followinf , hit a double , but again , menderson stop the run of braodus at the third .mc yett , looking concentrate , hit again in the right field ,but menderson again caught the ball , and keep again broadus stick on the third base.Menderson just save 3 run like that since the start of the game .the pressure is at his maximum for cole , who at his first season participate at the all-star game ,seem intimidated by those big name in the field, when richard miller hit for a single in the right field ,while this time broadus make a run, and revelez decide to challenge the feared arm of menderson and slide for a run .nixon will follow with a groundball to cole who retire him easily for the end of the third inning.
the top of the fourth start with seth javier as pitcher.bill dennis , hammonds and ingerton are the batters.Bill dennis hit a single in centerfield ,usually that is a double but dennis decide to stay at the first base when he see the power relay of orren to miller .javier strike easily hammonds,ingerton hit a flyball to revelez
• and miller with a great defense catch retire oberkfell to end the top of the fourth.ducotey , ramon stark , and matsumoto will met the all-star pitcher, yovon yakov , who is selected to participate to this annual meeting on a regular basis since he began in the league.Ducotey and stark are easily retired by nice defensive play made by sarrett and burrell, when matsumoto use as dh hit a single in the right field.warner arrive at the plate , and yokov seem confidente , relax , looking like a guy full of himself , i would dream to see warner hit an homerun , but its like that yakov knew that he will force warner hit a groundball to him.that the end of the fourth .still 4-1 Fishermen , but when i look at thehermen bench , i am a little worry as the guys seem to be too relax , they have fun togheter , they dont seem to realize that i have put my frickin head on the log with my so called prediction of the century.anyway they earn millions ,they have all the pussy they want , so i understand that i am their last tought , and they dont care if i loose my
• job , because my faith in them have overpass the reality of their confortable lifestyle , when they dont want to pusch they wont.
• the top of the five start with putnam as pitcher ( the same funny guy who have found the time to covers miller glove of dog shit rahter concentrate on his game ) burrel , faulk and plank are the next batter .what should happen , happen , the funny guy give a double to burrell ,but came back on heart and reducing faulk to hit a fly ball in centerfield caught by sarret.(hum this part of the bbpro report is strange , i am not doing a mistake , sarrett in this part of the report have caught the fly of faulk , his teammate , and will appear at the fifth batter of the innings while he is still playing in centerfield........hum a bug that will be certainly be fix by graham . so lets says that it is orren who caught the ball , seems to me more realistic, for the first out.the funny guy have given a walk to plank , and menderson have hit an homerun of 367 feet in the right field wich produce 3 runs and bring back the funny guy on heart.jeannot the manager, red like a tomato , was yelling at putnam ,telling him that he should take it more seriously , we are not in a sand square at the kindergarden , he says.it is now 4-4 , just one out , sarrett dennis and hammonds are next , and maybe ingerton .the party continue , when sarret hit a long shot in centerfield for a single ,and putnam hit dennis for an automatic base.hammond is at the plate and jeannot theberge is out of himself , swearing loudly , when hammond hit a single in the infield , but ducotey make dennis out at the second base, for the second out.the pressure is at his most when ingerton this lefty dangerous batters of saskatoon arrive at the plate .putnam force him to hit again in direction of ducotey whpo retire him a the first base easily.the top of the fifth innings ends even , 4-4 .i start to feel nervous , my prediction of the victory of the Fishermen start to be uncertain.the bottom of the five see wattie wifford, the 39 years old pitcher from saskatoon , meet in order broadus , revelez and mc yett.Broadus start the inning with a single in the center field, followed by a flyball made by revelez to farmers centrefield nakada .wiffors swipped yett easily with 3 strike in a row .miller hit again a single and put braodus to the third .i am praying to see nixon hit the big hit, but the lord didnt understand me , probably because the noise of the fan produce was too loud , and nixon hit a ground ball at the second base for the third out.
• Like a calm day after the storm , the sixth and seventh innings have gave me the time to catch up my interior peace .So calm that i call my wife to ask to her to go immediatly light some candle at the church in favor of a Fishermen victory , with the promises , that i will start to do the disches at home if she do that for me and giving the assurance to the lord that i will go back on hte bench of the church each coming sunday...........calmer yes but a little desesparate .so consecutivly in the sixth and seventh innings milosevic and piatt for the Fishermen , and cokcburn an haring (another rookie) for the farmer have pitch peferctly their innings without no hits .
That's at the top of the eight that i have start to freak , bad feeling, i feel that a shot of pepto -bismol could help me to feel better.Nunn from ottawa was the pitch , and in order at bat , yount, janks, ingerton for the farmers.so , we see yount hit a bunt for a single ,well bad start...a bunt transform in a single! Janks the second batter hit a deep right centerfield fly ball cauhgt by marcel orren recognize as one of the best defensive center field.but ingerton hit a double , and push yount for the run from the first base to break the tie.len birkofer , use as dh , push ingerton at the plate with a single , and at this time , i understand that the whole bottle of petpo bismol couldnt help me anyway to feel better , with just one out , and one runner on base , i never seen a sunshine day with blue sky so grey.burrel arrive at the plate and hit a ground ball at the shortstop cleo purdy and is out while birkofer go to the second base.bodie come at the plate , make a ground ball in direction of nunn , and reach the first base on time .nunn made and error who push birkofer at the third base.plank the following , willl have a walk from nunn and the table is settled and soriano hit a double and push birkofer and bodie at the plate for two runs and plank at the third.At this moment , all my hope have disappear , i was feeling like the guy in the desert trying to find the water source.Nakada will stop the bleeding eightth innings hitting a fly ball in foul territory caught by pat douglas.the bottom of the eight seen , buechele arrive , for the farmers , opposed to yett , herring , and douglas .at his first apparition in the all-star game , i hope we will beneficiate of the lack of experince of bueshele to come back .but , yett hit a ground ball in the hand of plank.herring after one ball no strike , have swing that we call as the fastest pitch of the game , a fastball at 101mph , directly in yount hand at shortstop for the second out.Buechele intentionally walk pat douglas to meet cleo purdy , who simply hit a flyball just a litttle back the pitcher.
the top of the ninnth , see ashmar coleburn opposed to yount janks and ingerton.Yount is strike out with 3 consecutive pitch.janks hit for a single ,and ingerton hit a single in the centrfield pushing janks to second base.purdy nutralize with a nice catch the fly ball hit by birkofer , and anderson forced janks out a the third for the last out.at this moment , i suspect my wife to have not been at the church to light up those candle,especially when i see the ace reliever ross becker from moose jaws designated to end that bottom ninth.anderson matsumoto, and beto are up.anderson have hit in burell's hands at second base, matsumoto the second batters , is struck out by becker's knuckball.hum! i start to try to imagine the good side of the things , and i start to imagine that it is maybe a good thing , i wont have to do the disches, and sleep late each sunday.it is not the best scenario, but it is not so bad finally .two out beto hit for a double in the left centefield, orren the following hit another double in leftfield and push beto to the plate.dutch hines have taste the medication of becker and have been striked out by the secret weappon of becker ,the knuckle ball to end the game , and put on me the shame .
So like a man , i am giving all my apology to farmers players and owners , and congratulate skeeter menderson who have been named all-star mvp after 13 participation .At 38 years old menderson told that he will think about his future and could announce that he will retire at the end of the season , to finish his carreer in the glory and the honor to have been named the 2015 als-star mvp.
