Summer Softcore Kickball at Irving Park Tuesdays

Amazing Catch to end the game . Excellent defense throughout the battle. Great team spirit and drive!

Great Leadership on the mound. Fantastic pitching and hitting. Lead his team to two back to back victories. Great sportmanship and attitude that rose above the rest. Great communication with team on defense

Anisa Babar is a great bunter... except on one bunt attempt she made on Tuesday night at Irving Park. After several successful bunt attempts earlier in the game, a pitch came to her and she stuck her foot out and the ball rolled right underneath it. She almost came down right on top of the ball which could have caused an even more embarrassing fall but luckily the ball rolled under. After a hearty laugh at herself, however, Anisa was back up there and laid down a perfect bunt making it to first safely. It is this "If at First You Don't Succeed, Try, Try Again" attitude that embodies the true Underdog spirit. Sometimes a less than fortunate play is an opportunity to show a resilient spirit that can make someone the Underdog Player of the Week. Congratulations Anisa!

Doug played exceptionally this week, both on defense and at the plate. He pitched a great game, and made a couple stellar defensive plays on comebackers, and he started the scoring for his team with a great hit in the early innings. He kept a great attitude and was having fun on the field even when the game was close and intense. He was a great leader and example setter to his team this week. Keep up the good work!
