“A little game of cat and ballgame…”

-Ryan Tovani talking about the great mind games Rick Roitinger plays with opposing pitchers… moments later he was picked off for a second time

“Steve McDevitt is the best pitcher I’ve ever seen…”

-Paul Blitzkloggervich witnessing his first baseball game

“Your son has a huge penis …”

-Jevon moments after meeting my Dad

I always hear -Steve you are too modest. You never want recognition… Well fine. Here it goes. I am the best pitcher on the planet.

Larkspur, Ca – Under the hot Marin sun Wood phenom pitcher Steve McDevitt threw eight strong innings to lead Wood to victory Saturday afternoon. The pitches were sharp, Wood’s defense was phenomenal, and Mattiassi’s post game words for the winning pitcher’s Dad was awkwardly classic.

In the effort he allowed just one unearned run, while striking out ten and walking none. Wood bats put up just enough run support to get McDevitt the win. Dylan Mattingly came in for the ninth and was able to close the door despite drilling two Blue Claws, which according to Marin County's Fish & Game law is one over the legal limit for crustaceans.

No wonder McDevitt struck out 10, these lovable shellfish have no thumbs for christ sake

All in all, great game played by Wood in a must needed win situation.

MVP: Steve McDevitt – did I mention I was the best pitcher like ever?

LVP: Rick “He giveth and he taketh away” Roitinger was picked off twice

Co-MVP Brandon “Look on the bright” Sides collected his first hit of the year on a single to left field.

Wood faces the Blazers on Sunday in another must win contest.
