Just call it a victory. The Suck Dragons never doubted themselves and pulled out an 11-8 victory over Suckralicious improving their record to 2-1 on the season.
The SDs got off to an extremely slow start last night, with their first run finally coming in the third inning. Our early inning defense was nothing to write home about either handing over 4 runs in the first inning . Eventually though, we settled in (read: had more beers) and started putting some runs on the board and for the most part, shut down the attack of our foes. We were down 5-8 heading into the top of half of the last inning and managed to hit 'em with a six run pounding of an inning that put us in a comfortable lead. We then had to hold them off which we did by going four up three down in the bottom half of the sixth. The rest is history. Point is, we really only played like our normal selves for about half the game and managed to score 11 runs.
Last night's game marked the first time the SDs have ever battled back to win a game and we did it in grand fashion.
Hopefully, we can carry this momentum into next week's game against league newcomers the Chupacabras.

That's weak, you ripped off my Damn Dirty Hippies Men's team title from last week (Don't call it a comeback) and didn't even put in the LL Cool J video to go with it.

And you shouldn't call it a comeback, you were playing Sacrilicious. You should call it, "We finally woke up for our hangovers", or "I can't believe we let them score any runs", or "We beat Luck Dragons' ass, and then this?????" There are a number of titles to choose from.
Any Sucks want to play in the LCS?
The League Championship Series is Sept. 20 and 21, but we don't have enough players.
However, we can add players from Suck Dragons or Luck Dragons, as long as they have a waiver on file for the Spring '08 season.
We need men and women!
Nottingham? Amber?
It's fun and FREE!
