Jim Martins is the News Caries reporter here. A game between Dent 86 II and Dent 86 III. A few highlights:
Whaaaat? the dental hygiene class were cheerleaders??
--Curtis "collar bone" Chan dove for a foul ball and did two things: he broke his collar bone, and missed the ball completely.
--Mark "cast stone hands" committed five errors in the infield. He blamed it on the gophers. (Jim, BTW, you spell it GOPHERS, not GOFFERS.)
--Ken "all or none" Skyberg, when up at bat, either strikes out or hits a home run. No in between with him.
--One of the great home run hitters of Dent 86 is Mark "baby killer" Romanelli. This happened the week before. He was in the on-deck circle, when practicing his swing, lost the bat. It nicked our reporters hat, then ended up in the stands barely missing two mothers and their babies, but damaging a baby carriage. (Martins recommended that Romanelli used rubber base adhesive to help with his grip).
--Gary "no longer immigrant" Kevorkian spent most of the season swinging at camel flies at one of America's favorite past times. (Can we say that ?!)
--Gary "hot shot" Ackerman still hasn't figured out which team he's playing for. He just shows up for both team's games. But during one game Gary paid the price. He ripped his pants while stretching to catch a wide throw to first. Not only did he have central air conditioning, but he spent the rest of the game "mooning" his opponents as they came to bat. (Good strategy Gary)
--A few weeks back, Dancin' Jim was a spectator at one of our class's games. While viewing the game from the left field line, Jim got this urge to break-dance! As he began, a foul ball was hit towards him. Jim performed the most incredible act ever. He caught the ball while break dancing!
This is a candid picture of Dancin' Jim just before
he caught the ball........with his feet!!
