The hard-hitting Guzzlers, coached by Centerfield, are looking forward to hosting their hustling Brooklyn visitors who are coached by John Cougar Lunchbucket.

Limited standing-room tickets are available through Stubhub but get them NOW!!!! Betting is encouraged! Inside pitches will be thrown!

Game 4 p.m. at Riverside Park at 103rd street. Be there!!!!

*-not their real name.

I just check The Snooze, a line has not been posted yet. Keep us updated.

[Lefty Specialist]

Check them to make sure they have lats, quads and thoracic outlets.

[Edgy MD]

This belongs in the baseball forum.

I hope that big doofus reliever with the neck tatts gets hammered.

[Centerfield]

WEST SIDE VERSUS BROOKLYN!!!

LUNCHPAIL VERSUS MINIFIELD!!!

MORE ACTION THAN YOU CAN POSSIBLY HANDLE!!!!

Well, maybe I exaggerated the action a little bit. Anyway, JCL and I have arranged an informal scrimmage between our boys' little league teams. It should be a lot of fun. This Sunday (May 21) at 4 p.m. at the Riverside Field. (entrance is on 103rd Street and Riverside Drive). Rumor is that the coaches may or may not have a beer at the outdoor cafe right afterwards.

In the area? Stop by and say hello. Got a 10, 11 or 12 year old who plays? Suit him/her up and get into the game! (I'm looking at you Mini-Wolf!)

Shoot me a PM if you want to stop by. I'll send you my contact info.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

I just hope they finally give the headhunting a rest.

[Centerfield]

Oh crap. RMPL.

[Edgy MD]

You should get a camera going behind home plate and have your brother call the game.

[Centerfield]

I was thinking it would be nice to get some photos of the event. Man. If only there were members of this board that knew how to handle a camera...

[Benjamin Grimm]

And make sure all of the players stay far away from Adriana Lima.

I didn't know he was Minifield. I always thought of him as Short Centerfield.

Willets Point's kid hit a grand slam last weekend. You should get him in on the action. And YoungerPooper climbs walls so well she makes Torii Hunter look silly.

I wish I could make it. Pre-existing anniversary plans take precedence....

[Guest d'Kong76]

Will there be an IGT!?!

YES this has to happen. I would be there myself if I could. This is excellent.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I'm hoping we get enough Cheetos to make it out, so seriously if you have 10 year old and you're confident they have a little ability, come and play. I had to be clear to my guys it was voluntary lest I get sued for any injuries (not that saying so was a defense) but I have 3 commits so far and hoping for as many as 8.

We have some serious Park-Slope private-schoolers in the group, you know they don;t like leaving the borough.

I have an eleven-year-old with very little baseball ability, unfortunately.

[Centerfield]

My kids are 11. So 11's are fine.

Baseball ability is optional. We'd love to have mini-Wolf.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I just mean, the ability to get out of the way if a pitch comes close. I feel like they are at the age where if you don;t know what you're doing you can get hurt.

We played against a team whose kids didn't know anything about baseball a few weeks ago, and a kid got hit directly in the eyeglasses by a pitch. He didn't move! Fortunately the only damage was to his glasses and a small shape of his rims on his face, but worse for our pitcher who was all shaken up.

Wolf Junior I'm sure knows that much.

Sounds like the kid was wearing sports glasses. Good thing. If something like that happened when I was a kid, that might've been tragic.

[Guest cooby]

Sounds like a good time!

[seawolf17]

Most of Sunday's schedule involves our daughter, so MW and I might just make the trip. I'll let you know.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Hmm. HMM.

[Lefty Specialist]

I'd watch but then I found out it was an ESPN game.

[Fman99]

I would love to be a shirtless drunk heckling asshole at this game.

I'm sure someone will be able to skype you in. Lol!

Later

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

See, that's the reason we haven't done LL with YoungerPooper yet-- all those Skyping-in shirtless drunk heckling assholes.

We're, like, slightly less than 50-50 for this, methinks.

[Guest cooby]

And that's just the women

Just do it. Have a beer with us. There is an outdoor cafe right next to the field.

[Guest d'Kong76]

No one mentioned beer!

[Centerfield]

Heard the Cheetos are throwing a lefty. I called Wilmer Flores' mom but she says he has another game.
