Still a little sore about blowing that 3-1 lead, my heart will mend soon enough

Banana Hammocks stun Galactic Empire


Milwaukee (AP) - K.Herndz blasted a grand slam in the bottom of the 8th inning to give the heavy underdog Banana Hammocks a 14-13 lead. Stanly then pitched a scoreless 9th as the Hammocks pulled of a game 1 upset victory over the defending champion Galactic Empire in front of a wild crowd at Quinlan Park.

K.Herndz led the Hammock offense by belting 2 HR's and driving in 5 runners. His grand slam homer that gave the Hammocks the lead shocked the Empire as the juggernaut couldn't recover to stage any kind of rally in the ninth. Jerry Seinfeld was in attendance to cheer his hero on, and W. Herndz did not disappoint him with his huge night.

The Banana Hammocks, who led the league in double plays hit into, managed to not hit into any, while the Empire hit into two. The Empire hit into the least double plays all year.

"They played great and we did not play Empire style ball. Our bullpen did not locate the ball, and you just can't do that in this league. This game is behind us and our focus is on game 2. This is a seven game series, and we'll respond in Empire fashion. We have full confidence that the Force is with us and we'll find a way to make it to our third straight WS" said Darkside.


Galactic Empire 16-7
Banana Hammocks 14-16

Hammocks lead the series 1-0

OC Legions of Doom quickly dismantle Fighting Ulrachers in three innings


San Luis Obispo (AP) - On a beautiful Californian sunny day at Sinsheimer Field, many fans wasted their sunblock since they were not at the park very long. The OC Legions of Doom erupted for 11 runs in three innings and went on to mercy rule the Fighting Ulrachers 11-1 in three quick innings.

B.Sntago blasted a pair of shots and drove in 4 runners to lead the offense, while the OC out hit the Ulrachers 13-4 in a laugher. Arguably the league's best pitcher, D.Gooden, struggled in his outing as he was pounded for 11 runs in three innings. Witt appeared sharp in his outing as he only allowed 1 run off 4 hits in his quick three innings of work.


Fighting Ulrachers 16-14
OC Legions of Doom 14-9

OC lead the series 1-0

Such chokers, that Empire...

I don't think Willie Hernandez hit those homers for the Hammocks, if he did that may be the most impressive feat ever

Fixed. Have no idea what I was thinking there. Still very disappointed in my team for that kind of effort. Where is Turd? The Empire needs some wall material to work with. Turd, get in here and run your mouth---enjoy your day in the sun---before you meet your fatal destiny.

League officials are worried now, that we might not advance. The league wants to see an Empire-OC matchup imo....kinda like how the NFL wanted to see a Raiders-Cowboys matchup in the late 70's/early 80's.

[Barton]

I'm disappointed in your team's effort too, Lord Gay-durrrrrrrrrr....

[Turd]

I don't have a powerhouse of a team, but they are scrappy.  While your team is out partying, mine is out on the diamond takin' practice swings. They have heart. Even if I don't win another game, to have humbled you even slightly is a victory in itself.

[ultimate7]

It's bad when the video of your game is less than 3 minutes and you can't make it all the way through

[Darky]

Man, Turd being far too humble and showing dignity there. Nevertheless, good game Turd. Your team plays well together.

Game two will begin 7:00 AM dee nee time, 1:59 PM Swedish time on my computer clock. Best of luck to everybody.

Bringing back the Temple of the Dog pregame music for my games. We used that tune when we were down 3 games to 2 against the Sally Cunts in last year's FRBI WS. The Empire is pulling out the stops here...10 minutes to game time.

[Darky]

Game 2 in the books. Youtube'd games to come asap...

[Darky]

[Gantry]

That was the first time I've watched YouTube, been missing out.   Superspeed and the commentary makes it awesome - nice work Darky...

[Mike D.]

I like that Darky sounds a little bit like Napoleon Dynamite.

[Gantry]

Nothing what I expected Darky to sound like, figured more of a soothing Darth Vader

But they are awesome and I should have been watching them instead of replaying the movies.  Especially cause those take so long and I tend to stop watching in 5-10 minute bursts.  One of the downside to having 3 monitors I guess...

[Turd]

You know you can superspeed the virtuanes movies, right? You just don't get the darknuggets commentary.

[Gantry]

I did not but the commentary adds an element, YouTube for life!

wow Gantry...can't believe you've been watching the games at regular speed. That's torture.

That was a good comeback Turd. Garner is just killing us---C.Davis as well. Looks like the series will be a good one. Now the series heads back to the Imperial Center. We were 10-1 there during the season. Basically, we fully expect to win all three games back at home. You may crown us now....

Yeah.  Darky, how fast are you speeding them up?  I do 2x when I download the games, but I've watched the last two on YouTube, and they seem faster.

I almost commented that you can't give up nine homers and expect to win, but I noticed in the final box score that we had ten homers - we just couldn't string together the other hits as well, and it seemed like we had a lot of solo shots.  It also seemed like the Ulrachers were doing a great job of two-out hitting - every time I thought we might get out of an inning mostly unscathed, they'd manage to keep the inning going.

[Darky]

Yeah.  Darky, how fast are you speeding them up? 

I have the throttle on 210---perfect speed imo. Games are between 6-10 minutes at that speed. Rarely over 10 minutes. The average would be about 7 minutes...
