TEAM TURMOIL


Go to Europe for one lousy week and everything falls apart. What's a deadbeat manager to do? I wish I had better news right now, but can't think of any. I'll be missing Tuesday's game vs. ANS because of the Boston Celtics and much of the rest of our roster will be missing it because of the Boston Red Sox. None of this makes sense.
Anyway, he's GM Chris Brennan's report on our loss to the South Philly Tap Room:
"This is probably a story best kept short. We fell behind to the SPTR, which played a smart game of hitting sharp grounders through our infield to load up the bases for a few of their players who had the talent to smack balls to places in the outfield we were not currently located. Final score: 19-8.
Provisional management accepts full responsibility -- I'm looking at you, Ron -- for putting together a batting order that didn't exactly balance out our talent from top to bottom. After Ron's departure, I didn't make matters much better.
The club hung in there on a wickedly humid day, pulling within one run mid-game before the Tap Room broke it open again. Highlights were Nevins 3-4 and Yasiejko 3-3."
Wow, that was terse. GM CB gets a chance for redemption against ANS and I expect a better report.
