Space Tractor v. Tha Tang

What does Tha Tang taste like! Tha Tang tastes like defeat. Sweet, sweet defeat.

Thanks to great teamwork and several superhuman throws by Matt Hodge, Space Tractor was gloriously victorious on the field yesterday. You guys are awesome.

Highlights:
  • Mindy's fem-bot costume was top-notch. Space Tractor toasted tang, discovered it tasted like defeat, and mocked our opposition. Pathetically, Tha Tang did not taunt us back.
  • Some extremely well-placed kicks by nearly everyone involved. Space Tractor is precision.
  • The two aforementioned throws by Matt Hodge. Holy jeez. The first was lobbed from way past third base toward a Tang runner about to score. It seriously curved around the third base line and connected square in the back of the runner, just steps from home plate. The second was a bunt scooped up by Matt and hurled towards first base. Again, despite the distance, the kickball flew like a heat-seeking rocket and connected with its target to the cheers and amazement of all. So far, Matt is the only one exempt from the "don't throw the ball at the runner" rule.
  • The final out of the game was scored by Matt Daniels. It involved jumping, sliding, throwing, yelling. When the dust cleared the runner was out and the game was over.
