Okay, so tonight I had a softball game vs. the Cleveland Job Corps (a team that has beaten us all four times we have played them). We came out to a 4-0 lead for the first five innings, and the other team went a little crazy. They started tripping our players (girls to be specific) and then we started playing really badly and they were winning by over 10 runs. Then it happened.

The same man who tripped our manager Maurissa as she was running to first base twice was the batter. I play first base. The ball was hit to the shortstop, and he threw the ball to me. It was a little off line, but I could have stretched out to get it -- but as I stretched, the guy reached out and tackled me to the ground. razz
