Na Pahu Piha III

aloha Na Pahu Piha...



...E Komo Mai - Season III

1/8: Playoff Layoff

the stars finally aligned for the Citywide Softball League Division 2 playoffs. Na Pahu fielded an all-star lineup (as always) for the round two matchup (...originally scheduled for 12/18). unfortunately, our playoff poledance had grown stale over the holidaze...
the layoff proved to be too much.

we found ourselves head-to-head with hi telcom for the 3rd time this season...they say it's really difficult to beat a team three times in one season - but hi telcom didn't seem to have too much trouble. you could say they "have our number" [insert laugh track here]

Na Pahu played quite well actually...the telcom just had too much firepower and were hitting the ball with sniperesque accuracy. like the dude who just figured he'd hit it off the japanese cultural center every at bat. jefe pitched well - aside from the grand slam, 3run homerun, and solo shot he gave up to said dude.their logo is eerily similar to the softball's flying off their bats - which unfortunately - were legal. devan threw the challenge flag and we even got a booth review but the ruling on the field was upheld - homerun(s)

on another note - hi telcom is in bankruptcy proceedings - so we'll give 'em this one.

final score
innings 1-2:
Hi Telcom 12
Na Pahu 5

innings 3-7:
Hi Telcom 3
Na Pahu 5

stay tuned for season three...
