Na Pahu was short wahine but got by with a little public assistance - mahalo to our favorite pseudo-nemesis.
me thinks we played the game under Akua - the second of the four Hawaiian full moons - and Akua means God/Goddess as well as corpse, devil, and idol (...according to the internet and it has never been wrong before)...which can be the only explanation for what transpired.
our assorted pre-game poisons had Na Pahu either feelin' like Gods/Goddesses or directly speaking with God from the top row of the mo'ili'ili bleachers....no doubt trying to avoid the pain of a looming division 1 matchup....unfortunately, we took the field and played like corpses. D dropped some steamy dumps on the mound and Datswutshesed had plated 10 before we even got an out. vintage Na Pahu. by the time we were able to scrape together 3 outs they had dropped a foot-long on us...not very pleasant.
Chuck played the role of devil...challenging my coaching abilities during the first inning, saying that i was stupid for taking the home side, b/c the game was already over and we hadn't even batted - wtf? although i guess he had a point.
Unfazed ('err...completely dazed?') Na Pahu chipped away in the first with 3 quick runs to make it a respectable - for Na Pahu - 12 to 3. A surprising hold in the field and some bang bang bang from the bottom of the order and we got a 12-9 score after two....a huge 2-out over the fence foul sealed 'shesed's mouth for two more innings allowing Na Pahu to creep up at 12-11....at which point chuck bellows the '...10 more minutes' basically saying this is our last chance.
the bats came alive and some voodoo from the bench allowed Na Pahu to put together a chunky 15 minute beatdown seemingly ending it as an unbelievable comeback win for na pahu at 15-12....but chuck reared his devil horns and sent us out to make us earn the win....a task that we were NOT up for.
A quick 6 from the bad guys had us hanging our heads looking at a 18-15 deficit.
lest you forget the full moon - Na Pahu claws back with some mucho gusto from the newbie chunk of the lineup (4 in a row to be exact)...ties the game at 18-18 and who, of all, is gets the idol award for game winning hit? come on - guess? no, seriously? well...not that serious...
Na Pahu Piha 19
