He's got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He's got my brothers and my sisters in His hands,
He's got my brothers and my sisters in His hands,
He's got my brothers and my sisters in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He's got the sun and the rain in His hands,
He's got the moon and the stars in His hands,
He's got the wind and the clouds in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He's got the rivers and the mountains in His hands,
He's got the oceans and the seas in His hands,
He's got you and he's got me in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He's got everybody here in His hands,
He's got everybody there in His hands,
He's got everybody everywhere in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
Laurie London, 1958
Last night on Randall's Island, the house the Bachrach built, your Bachrach BallBusters, in an incredibly important game for their playoff hopes trounced the Emblem Health Bombers in a double header by the scores of 15-1 with a mercy rule after 5, and 22-2 with a forfeit after the third, a combined score of 37-3 in 8 innings. It was a blood bath! The gravitas of the game and situation was apparent from the get go when the front office was at the game, both Richard "The Boss" Bachrach and Scott "Hal" Bachrach were seen patrolling the side line, in what was surely a ominous sign for BallBuster manager Jeff "The Freight Train" McLaughlin. But I tell you this my friends, the BallBusters responded to there manager being on the hot seat in grand fashion. Every BallBuster in the lineup had at least one hit and scored at least one run. Our bats bashed hit after hit after hit pounding the Bombers into a frustrated submission that almost caused an on field confrontation between BB pitcher Allan "Rubber Arm" Ageman and the Bombers left fielder, a tall lanky gentleman. Newly minted BB short stop Jordan " don't call me AROD" Siegman looked very comfortable in his new role in the field. Why do we call him AROD, cause just like Yankee superstar Alex Rodriguez, under pressure Jordon faltered, when the BB's had secured there victory he hit bomb after bomb finishing the day with a triple and two home runs, as well as a few other assorted base hits. Jimmy "the kid" Sammarco flourished in his new position as right fielder. With the pressure of SS off his back every time he came to the plate he hit a home run, he must have had 4, but who's counting. All the BB's, The franchise, Scott "The Babe" Book, Oliver Mays everyone crushed the ball and played brilliantly in the field. Evan "The Truth" Price showed his leg was healed running the bases like a gazelle on a triple and a home run, and the Ageless wonder Allan Ageman saw third base for the first time in his career legging out a triple.
How were the BB' ettes you ask? Once again proving we have the best roster of women in edso sports, every girl got a hit and played seamless defense. Kelly "white shoes" Lepore, Ali "Potty mouth" McGlincy, Kim "don't call me Antrosiglio" Bachrach and Ellie "being in this country illegally is against the" Law all put on a performance for the ages, Ms. Law actually got the RBI that plated the last run in game one officially ending the game.
Your BallBusters, barring a complete collapse, are playoff bound and set to make some noise.
If you can't be an athlete be an athletic supporter!!!
Notes and Quotes:
When asked his reaction to the performance the Freight Train said this "Complete Annihilation....we didn't Mercy Rule them we stole their pride"! I know my job was on the line today and I want to thank the team for responding the way they did. This is the team and lineup that is taking us through the end of the year and the playoffs. No disrespect to other members of the BB's but with this lineup in place I can't see many teams beating us. " McLaughlin was seen leaving the field with the boss and Hal, could a contract extension be in the works?
When asked if she made it to the bathroom in time after struggling throughout the game with issues Ali "potty mouth" McGlincy had no comment. Alex "MIA" Roth missed yet another game as did Scott" "Haggy" Hechler, were they together for an early evening tryst? No one is sure but after the performance of the BB's both of them will be relegated to bench duty going forward, hope it was worth it Mrs. Robinson, I mean Alex :)
