From: Tim Plummer, Manager & GM
Eric,
Thanks for manning the ship for me after my little blow-up in the 5th. Sorry I lost my head, but that ump made a lousy call. How's Mike Chenowith's arm? He looked awfully tight after the rain; I should never have sent him back out there, but I hated to go to the pen in the 3rd inning.
Sorry I couldn't have left a better scenario for your "managerial debut." Hey, you did a better job than me! They got 7 before I left, you only let 'em get 2 more. How far did their left-fielder hit that grand slam, anyways? It must have been some kind of record.
Well, we took 2 out of 3 to open the season, and the two we won were thanks to your pitchers, Eric. Great job!
Tim
