Mambo No. 5 (1999)

In Week 5, The Ship had a crew of five, because three of us were attending Game 6 of the ALCS. Despite the handicap, The Ship turned in a courageous effort.

With the Yanks battling Boston in the background, The Ship powered out of the gates by winning the first 3 games of the night, and taking 4 of the 5 S501 games we played. So, despite being down a man, we were ahead 4-2 after S501.

Rich / Rebecca continued the winning ways with a win in their first game of Cricket, but they dropped game two after falling behind early. Roni took one for the team by playing 2-on-1, and lost both, although he put up a fight by throwing an impressive amount of bulls. Andrew and Nacho split the final two games, and The Ship was tied after two rounds.

Looking for two wins in D501 to take the night, we sent Roni / Rebecca out in game one, but they lost a close match. Rich played 2-on-1 in game two, and had 8 shots to double out, but lost a close one. The sweep was complete when Andrew / Nacho dropped the last game, making the final score a 12-6 loss for The Ship.

Props:
Rich: Came this close to a big win, just like the Yanks.
