My 3-pitch team had its championship game last night, you guess by the title of this blog that it did not go well. I might have screwed up once or twice as a base coach (I was being aggressive and we lost by a couple of runs. But we had our chances, we had a couple of good hitters up with nobody out and a runner on in the last inning. Sucks although as an individual I played well I was 2-2 with a sac fly and never really had the ball hit to me. Our outfield got pounded. But hats off to the opposition they were a good team.
I was planning on quitting the 3-pitch team but I am unsure if I want to go down like this. I really need to cutback on my sports this summer but it is tough, I don’t want to let anyone down and I like these people so much.

I’m sorry your team lost.

You have to give up the captainsy (sp?) of your teams. I know you feel you have to because you are the most qualified and commited to be the captain, but it takes too much of a toll on you. You have to take a season off entirely, or simply let somebody else do a half-assed job of it.
But knowing that with you there, your teammates are going to come to you with their petty squabbles and greivances anyway, regardless of your official role in the time, taking the year off entirely might be the best option. These people need to know how to play Bob-free-baseball.
And I think you need a baseball-free-Bob just for your own sanity.
