Louisville Longhorns 2, Kentucky Mudcats 20

In an effort to find challenging competition, the 11U Longhorns are playing up in Beechmont’s 12U league, and they realized going into the season that there might be occasions when they have to take their lumps. But even though the Mudcats may very well be the class of the league, if not the best 12U team in the state, the Longhorns fully expected to make a far-better showing than they did last Thursday night. Witness: the Longhorns were only able to muster 3 hits—all singles—in 4 innings; their pitchers issued 9 bases on balls, and hit two batters, in only 3 innings; they committed an inconceivable 9 errors in the field, leading to 10 unearned runs; and, were it not for the two unearned runs that the Mudcats gifted them, the final score would have been 20-0.
’Nuff said.
A pained Nicholas Parrish cannot bear to watch.
