Today Alicia and I played our first softball game. Unfortunately, we lost, but only by 1 point. Of course, we only scored 1 point also. lol. The score was 2 to 1. The C. Lal team beat us - the Vijay Jewellers Team. Yes, I realized that 2 to 1 is a very low score for a softball game. One reason for a low scoring softball game could be that both teams were so awesome and their defense was so great that neither could score much. That wasn't necessarily the case today. lol. However, it was alot of fun. It was the first game and the rules had to be explained/discussed quite frequently. Many of the woman had never played. I almost got promoted to coaching our team simply based on the fact that I understood the game. lol. Yeah, that is a scary thought... It was definitely the most relaxing game of softball I have ever played. It was just a bunch of ladies from all over the world who just wanted to have fun. That goal was accomplished. I must add though, that Alicia respresented us quite well on third base and got several outs. I played centerfield, but only got to touch a ball one time. (Most hits never made it into the outfield). I'll let you know how our team shapes up throughout the season. I would post pictures, but they don't allow cameras inside the American Embassy where we play. It is actually quite a hassle just to get in, but I'm going to try to find some way to show our fabulous softball skills in action!
No, the pic above is not me, its just some random pic I got off the net.

Thanks for breaking the score down for all of us that couldn't figure out that the score of the game was 2-1...LOL It is really scary to think that you are the coach of the team, but im sure you do well and maybe next time you can actually touch the ball!!!
