A half-team turnout at practice on Thursday. Not so bad. But not so good either.

Plus5. That's our new practice slogan. Anytime there's an error made, whether it's fielding or throwing (or hitting grounders), the errorer must do five pushups. Rather than interrupting the practice, the errorer just says "plus5", while tallying up a grand total in their head. On two occasions JP and The Bigrodboski stubbornly refused to agree on which one of them made the error, both of them adding the plus5 immediately. Pretty sure everyone at practice had to do at least 10 pushups by day's end. Three of our players were justifiably absent. Two of those three were representing the mighty Indians in the annual all-star game. Congrats to Redge and Cedge.

And that's all we have to say about that.
