Storm pours down on Broadway in the 6th

 The curtain rises on another battle of the boards between Broadway and your favorite team in Orange those sassy Stormers.
Scoops Jockovitch here with what will be a game recap similar to my time in a West Virginian prison, brief and uncomfortable.

The back half of a back to back ( Coulas loves that spine humour) saw your Orangemen limp over to K1 after a tough loss to the Falcones de Bleu, however there would be one key difference in this game. A player that Papa D would dub “ The Missing Link” and not just because of the copious amount of chest, back and ear hair…but more on that grotesquery later.

The top of the 1st started with a resounding thud as the first two Storm batters were quickly shuffled off-stage, but a timely walk by the Gimp and a solid two bagger by the Lancer-beam gave the Missing Link his first knuckle dragging action of that day. A club was swung and both runners ran, scrambled most limped home to score.

Having rested his weary head and groin for the first game Captain Underpants was on the mound and held the bright lights of Broadway to a single run. And just to emphasize how retirement was not his cup o’ tea, Captian Underpants then scored along with 2 other pylons to take a 5-1 lead heading into the bottom of 2.

The Broadway bottom however felt the need to take centre stage and all 3 scored to close the thigh gap to a single run -5-4

The Storm saw Broadways bottom and got on top with the top 5 of their order all scoring, highlighted by the “ Missing Links” monstrous shot to left centre that probably still has residue from the plastic top of the fence it scraped - 10-4

Broadways leading men took the spotlight and scored the max 6 in their half to tie the score at a Bo Derek ( Those old enough will get this reference)

While we all imagine that beach running scene there were some defensive Storm highlites and low-lites throughout: 
Adam’s snatching a foul tip like forbidden fruit for an out
Whilst in the other side of the coin Adam seemed to feel the need to identify some long  ball’s as his own.

Back to the in-action…
The Cloudy Boyz goosed egged the 4th whilst the Big Apple thespians scored a handful plus a thumb to take the lead. ( thats 6 for those of you wearing mittens)
The 5th saw the CBz and the Broads took a Deuce  ( but not in the way your thinking, gross people) to match at a dirty dozen.

Final inning ( a surprise to all) saw the Hommes des Orange agree with Dick van Patten that 8 is certainly enough while the Theatrical Ones scored poor reviews with their rendition off good old Willys “ Much Ado about Nothing”
Make the final 20 to 12 for the Storm.

Walking away just like my 3rd divorce with a 50/50 split.
