I am an American and I Eat Hot Dogs

Company softball game vs. Biopure, Ahern Field, Cambridge, MA

2 x Kahn’s Beef, propane grilled by Mike from HR, fresh white bun, mustard (French’s), onions, relish

Dogs and burgers did not help the team today. We lost 13-5 to a team we pounded less than a month ago. I had a disaster of a game. I got hit in the face twice playing shortstop. The first one was a shot that jumped up and clipped my ear. The second one was much more of a wimpy grounder that just came up and hit me on the chin. I also looked terrible diving into third when stretching a double into a triple. The hot dogs softened the blow to the team, especially with the addition of relish.
