Mike Black, as everyone knows, is a clever guy. How clever? He was so clever that just the other day he figured out how to open the phone that was left on the bench by some other softball guy.
That doesn’t sound like much until you realize that this phone was like a transformer. You pulled a lever and it became a car, another button turned it into a hellicopter, then a speed boat. You really had to work it and get just the right sequence to uncover the phone inside, though you knew it was in there because it kept ringing and ringing and ringing.
It was Ali calling. Because it was Ali’s phone. Mike suggested he follow us to Dusty’s which he did.
While I think I speak for everyone when I express disappointment that Ali couldn’t (or wouldn’t) juggle, we were all thrilled to hear stories about the games his team had won and the romance that he had recently experienced. It was fascinating to learn how the other half lives, the half that is 24-years-old, can hit, wins games and goes on dates with hot chicks. Not that some of the B-ladies aren’t hot chicks. Because they totally are.
This certainly isn’t a full recap of the game which deserves it’s own account. But promises were made, especially after Ali agreed to eat a Dago, that we would document our budding friendship with this strange transformer-phone-forgetting-man. Pictures below show that everything written here is true. Specifically about Mike Black being clever.





He seemed really happy to get his phone back, but secretly, he wondered how he would escape the Bs.
