Softball Final!!!

Saturday, 29th August, 2009, SRC Field - The long awaited softball finals between Block A and Block C was held right after the touch rugby carnival! Unfortunately for the Acers, who were tired out from the winning overall championship for touch rugby, they eventually succumbed to the C-Towners with a score of 8-2.

Tiredness was not the only reason why the Acers lost. The last minute (I was only informed at 1am in the morning) finals had repercussions on the Acers' softball line-up as most of the original players could not make it. Hence, resulting in quite a few blur but very cute Block A players on field. This resulted in the 7-0 trashing of the Acers by the very experienced C-Towners led by Min Woo and joined by old alumni Abi in the very first inning.

Of course, being very intelligent people, it wasn't long before Block A got into the groove. Led by Block A very own star player Ashwin, they were able to reverse the second inning into Block A's favor with a win of 1-0.

Alas, despite the Acers' gallant attempts, it was a matter of too little too late as they could not overturn the score in the third and last inning which resulted in a draw of 1-1. Abishek proved why he was godlike as he knocked a solo home run which he comfortably ran through. With this, Block C had sealed the game and were crowned the IBG champions for this year. Congrats!

Nonetheless, the after-game was even more exciting. The friendly Acers and C-Towners had decided to play on for fun with some of the weirdest things happening:

1. Caoyang completing a homerun while hopping on his not injured foot (Please take care and recover soon! What with Block A and injured ankles anyway?)
2. Min Woo batting for Block A and allowing Block A to earn quite a few points
3. Jason Lau changing gender just to bat
4. Caoyang and Jason Lau hugging each other very very happily (Don't ask me why)

And many many other events which shall not be recorded.

Oh well, it was fun. =)
