Game Date 7/9/02
Time 5:45pm
Site: Field 1
Weather:  66F, very gusty winds, VERY wet conditions.

Game notes: A Prisland was a fielder for the Blue steel due to a short lineup tonight.

Game comments: The most frequent post-game word heard was "Prisland."  The Pirates feel that the substitute player rule must be altered due to the superior performance by A Prisland in the field.  Perhaps the substitute must play first base for future games.

"If we can play wiffleball in these winds, we can play wiffleball in any wind."
