Bud's Boys Special Baseball Edition!  We are two games into the World Series which has me ready to share some baseball talk with the 'Boys'. Quick World Series trivia. Who threw the first pitch in World Series history? If you follow baseball, you hear his name every year around awards time. We will review the past week and then get in some baseball talk, including an exciting story of one of our gang from his early baseball history. Here is a teaser. Can you recognize this former terror of the sandlot? Read on for the full story! It is at the very end of a long blog this week. Skip ahead if needed. The Week in BB's Golf Could not have had 4 more magnificent days of golf weather than we had this week. The excellent conditions led to 4 days of good turnout and 4 days of above average scoring. Here are some highlights. The group was +51 for the week. Double jumps included KZ +8, Butch +7, Glen +6, Bill F +6, Keith +6, Dave +6. Tom shot a 2-under 38 points and Glen had an e...

  Tuesday 10/13 A 'Little League' result today as all participants received a trophy, or in this case, part of your money back. Floyd's Medalist best +10, due to a lack of support, was only good for the Total. Even that had to be won in a scorecard playoff. Dave's CTP gave his team an edge as they were the only team to win 2 events. Brandon's double jump +8 led his team to a Front 9 victory. Tom's birdie on #17 allowed the worst team score to win anyway as it claimed the Random Skin. Thursday 10/15 A Wednesday washout left tougher scoring conditions for Medalist Thursday. Bill F and Randy tied for high honors at +5 with Bill winning the scorecard playoff. His team takes 3 of the 5 events. Glen wins another CTP, his second in the last week. Friday 10/16 Cold and chilly weather results in Team Totals of -8, -9, and -10. KZ wins the CTP. Everyone else was just glad to finish.

Tuesday Oct 6 Floyd and Scott tie for Medalist honors with +4's. Tom shoots under par again with 39 points. Keith wins his 3rd CTP and Rick's birdie on #17 takes the Random Skin. Scott, KZ, and Jeff check their balls before teeing off on Tuesday. Wednesday Oct 7 Doc celebrates his 78 years.   Nobody won the car, but everyone enjoyed the food and drink post-round. Scott double jumps with the day's top net score of +7. His team takes Front 9 and Total. Glen, Clint, Ray, and Butch take Wednesday's side games. Clint wins the CTP, his 10th this year, and a straight wins them the Card Game. Others with solid rounds include Clint and KZ at +5 and Doc, Roger, an...
