...and some days it rains, as Nuke LaLoosh once said. Today it's raining, and our opening game has been postponed. Rats!

According to the email I received that informed me of the rainout, it's the coaches' job to figure out when the game can be rescheduled. That's more complication than I bargained for. I'll have to speak to one of the league guys about that and get some clarification.

We'll have a practice on Thursday, which will serve as a last tuneup for our new opening game on Saturday. I stayed and watched a couple innings of another game last Saturday after the team pictures were taken, and there are a few things I want to point out, such as reminding everyone of the dropped third strike rule - I saw two batters reach base the same inning that way. A little more work for the pitchers, especially the guys who didn't get to throw last time, would also be nice.

I'm really disappointed. I was ready for today, and now I've got to wait until Saturday. It's a letdown, but that's how it goes.
