Show your diamonds (vs OC & C) primrose hill

or should be gold-digga


After a classic piece of slightly rubbish turning up late we started batting: and boy did we bat,

4 runs, and we batted round (this means that everyone got a bat in the first inning, we were awesome).. we had one out in that first inning and that was Ravi and it was a catch on a hit to the outfield...
The last 2 outs were for the 2 girls who didn't turn up,

NOTE TO ALL BD Girls We need you...Marie and Fiona and the others who have turned up have been heroic




Our fielding was a bit less impressive and despite being solid , we conceded four runs

BD 4 - 4 Team Bling

At this point whilst catching the opposition catcher spoke :
"I can't throw properly , I'll have to take off the Diamond."~

Team Bling Bling factor 8 Bd Bling factor 0

The next inning we again batted well, but were robbed by one good catch, and a bit comedy baserunning we lost a couple of scoring opportunities.

Our fielding and batting excellence was exemplified by a number of things over the next 2 innings.

Antonio, in the running for the most improved player of the year , caught a difficult over the shoulder running away catch,

Fiona then channeling the spirits of natasha F running for second base and then cruching into
there second basewoman, and slightly stepping on her head (but just a little bit)..
Most importantly she got on base.

We then had Marie snagging a hard hit line drive from Team blings official blingtatsic mascot (minus the rock)..

Eat that Bling witch

Team Bling Bling factor 6 Bd Bling factor 4

We then started our own bd fashion statement : Padmore & Bonsels had opted for bare feet and they were doing the business


Note: At this point Gary had already hit 1 base clearing home runs..
More was to come.

We then blanked the opposition, a smart double play with a catch by ravi and then a throw to
Antonio down at second and then a good bit of pitching by Azor, meant they had but up a zero

Unfortunately , We than had the blip and in this close game this finally told we conceded to many runs especially when we dropped a couple of easy outs, and then got overexcited and gave a couple of overthrows...

Gary at this point continued his assault on the opposition in fact they were really starting to show some major respect, dropping back.

Didn't work, he went the opposite way and snaged another home run for 2 runs..
Good work that man.

However despite timely hitting and patience at the plate, our lack of Girls

paid and we ended up losing an even bigger scoring opportunity.

the kiss off: we lost 18-16
2 Girls down and we only lost by 2

Comeback on the Week: The Razor reaction to the Bling babe and her comment which everyone in Primrose hill could hear

New term alert sacrifice fly: adam azor got himself a run batted in , if you are going to get out, this is the way to do it.
He creamed a great shot to deepish left field but was caught , however since we had enough out Ravi was able to tag up and then run in...
