The "Common Man" Dan Cole would be proud. Why because "objects in your mirror...are closer then they appear!" The River Bliss got back on track tonight...
They had the away team advantage and were able to hang a 7 in the top half of the first. From there the defense, which has been surprisingly strong all season, locked down the home team. There were a number of key plays for the Bliss tonight most notably a killer snag at third by Mr. Marks, a nice stab out in right-center from Kristina and Aimee came up with a sweet play at second. Nick and Aaron had the left side of the out-field nailed down until Aaron was brought into pitch. Then James, Mr. Marks, and Dave took their licks out in the field. John had a crazy play on base-paths that led to him taking an inning off at short. Sarah replaced the Bliss' stalwart at catcher, due to Katie and Monica's attendance at the O'bama rally, and she really brought some solid play. Nikki had an interesting play rounding second but she was able to recover and ended up scoring. Nikki also held down first base while still keeping her boys from throwing too many pine-cones. Morgan played a flawless right field and gave them hell at the plate. To allow us to bat seven and seven tonight we must thank Smo for giving us a hand. On a whole the Bliss were on tonight. Lets hope we've found our stride and can continue fighting our way back to 500. Go River Bliss.
