Oakland Park Baseball

Hey guys, great game yesterday. Here's hoping Pat's knee heals quickly.

Season 4 ends soon (exact date, Scott?), and due to more live games, the challenge game, and some weak turnout there are far fewer games on the books than expected. The weather is also about to change for the worse. What all this means is that we need to start playing more doubleheaders. Come to the park on Sunday expecting to play two; remember, we need 14 for an official game. Let's make it happen!

Don't give someone a hard time if they have to leave man! And yo dude, check out the very first rule, rule 1.0:

(1.0) Season Lengths and Dates

(1.01) Games played in a given year between January 1 and June 30 will be considered within the “Spring” season.

(1.02) Games played in a given year between July 1 and December 31 will be considered within the “Fall” season.

(1.03) There shall be no minimum or maximum limits to games played within a season.

(1.04) Games that are missed due to weather, player turnout, or any other reason will not be made up.

I agree with you though, we definitely need to go for double-headers to fit in some more games before the 12/31 switchover to Season 5. A related message is, get ready to play in some light rain! There will probably be some less than perfect weather conditions in the next few months----that doesn't mean we won't play though! Unless there's standing puddles of water, and/or unless it's raining beyond a light drizzle, then the game will go on.

Conclusion: yes, play more doubleheaders--anticipate 2 games. Yes, be ready to possibly play in some damp conditions as well.
