Last night, the Toki-yo Go Go's (9-1) played in a championship game against Das Boot (9-1). Both teams had an exceptional season! It all came down to one final game. Who would go home with this year's trophy?
Below, Seth and Jay are sporting their game faces and Miya is smirking while the previously recorded voice of Jed Baker, (singing our national anthem) blasted out of Jeff's boom box. The Boccé league even stopped to salute.
Both teams were a part of the traditional "coin toss" to see who would be in the field first. We lost.
Then, we got things started. We all depend on Jay Curley's spreadsheet to help us stay organized on the field. Das Boot played strong and was able to score 7 runs in one of their innings! We were discouraged but, Miya kept us motivated when she said, "The BFP is going to have such an awesome story to write about when we make THIS AMAZING COME BACK!!" Yeah! Our spirits were high and the score in the final inning was 12 - 15. Victory was still within our grasp. Marin was next to kick with 2 outs. We just needed to get on base. He kicked an amazing kick. Das Boot was just too good. They brought their best game to the championships and caught everything, even Marin's final kick of the season. 
It was close but, in the end we lost by 3 points. Despite our loss, Miya spontaneously produced two bottles of champagne for the team and we toasted each other and a pretty damn good season. 
Nice one Go Go's!!
