Sometimes a Moral Victory Isn't Enough



Ever feel like you're digging a hole in the wrong place? Or. . .

One day John was walking in town and came across his friend Simon digging a hole in his yard. Next to the hole he was digging was another large hole. John asked Simon what the holes were for. Simon replied, "My cow died and I need to bury him."

John then asked, "Well, what was wrong with the first hole."

"Oh, it was too small," said Simon.

After an auspicious beginning, the Monarchs have lost 7 games in a row. With few exceptions, we are in every game and are playing okay or better. We have lost two games by a run in the other team's last at bat. We have lost four games by 2 or 3 runs. Close, but no cigar seems to be the team motto at this time.

The great thing is the sun came up this morning and we get a chance to play again Friday and another on Saturday.

And no rain is in the forecast for a while. Good luck.

Hang in there Steve! Sounds like the team just needs a little luck to bounce their way!

Thanks, guys. I say these young men will make good husbands and fathers, but just not as good a baseball player as others.
