Hits Return to Action in April Fool's Day Match-up

After missing a week due to the whole lighting fiasco, the Solid Gold Hits will resume their 2008 spring campaign as they attempt to make April fools out of the Luck Dragons.

Let's take a look at our history against these rivals.

Last Spring:

Game 1 - Played to a tie after the umps gave the Luck Dragons extra strikes, outs and other freebies.

Game 2 - Hits cracked under the pressure as they failed to secure the league championship.

Last Fall:

Game 3 - The Hits handed the Suck Dragons their only loss of the season by way of timely hitting and amazing plays at the plate.

Game 4 - Hits crumbled in the late innings as the Luck Dragons lived up to their name and lucked into an 12-11 victory.

Game 5 - I'd rather not talk about Game 5.

That brings our record against the Luck Dragons to a slightly less than respectable 1-3-1, but when you consider that 3 of those games were decided by 1 run and a fourth was a tie, we're right there with them...as long as we stick to the "let's not talk about game 5" policy.

The off-season has seen the Luck Dragons do an awful lot of bragging and a whole bunch of wearing their championship fleeces to events where such fashions are commonly inappropriate.

Well, now it's our turn to be inappropriate! I'm not even really sure what I meant by that, but the important thing is that we get up for Tuesday night's big game.
