Grizzlies vs. Bloggers … softball style
Last Friday night, your Fresno Blogosphere played underdog to the Fresno Grizzlies front office staff in a softball game. I don’t know the actual score at the end of the game — but let’s just say it wasn’t that close. We can say with pride, however, that it was 5-4 at one point. We’ll blame what happened after that on the Tecate tall cans.
Regardless, we had a great time playing and are hoping for a re-match in the spring. Now, I can cross “playing baseball at The Chuk” off my Fresno bucket list. Here’s a great video by the guys at Dead in 60 Years. Below is a Little League-style team picture.
FYI: Grizzlies opening day is April 7, 2011.

I feel terrible that I didn’t know Bo and Daniel’s names until this video. Being social = not my strong suit.
Big thanks to the Fresno Grizzlies for the event. It was so cool being there.
My inability to run made it in the video, yay! That was fun.
These dudes said I was a horrible person because of my Dodgers jacket! Jealous!? Love the video, and had a lot of fun! WOO HOO TECATE!
Had a great time playing.
T’was a great time. Memories of Little League came flooding back. Thanks for the opportunity!
Bloggers have all the fun!!
Johnny Q is a player, man! I saw definite MLB skills – too bad there weren’t any scouts in the stands.
And Floydy looked really good in a hat.
Bloggers for ever!
Thank you for the video!
Thank you for sharing the vid Dead in 60 years rock!
Had a blast doing this. Definitely going to practice beforehand so I don’t strike out twice (to my own pitcher none the less) and have to resort to calling my shot and then bunting ala the ending of Major League.
Okay that was a super fun night! I’m glad dead got coverage of my crappy pitching to Johnny Q and my subsequent cowering in fear as he slammed it to center. Yes I looked for myself in the video and gloried in finding me. I’m self-aggrandizing like that.
