Team Chaos Washed Out
The Chaos came into this week looking to build on their historic 2-game winning streak, but the team came up against an opponent they couldn’t overcome – the weather. Over 24 hours of steady rain put the field under water and apparently made the game unplayable.
“We were still ready to play,” said manager Kacy Manning. “Most of the team knows how to swim and we had the remaining players outfitted with water wings before game time.”
Despite the team’s obvious preparedness and complete willingness to take to the field in a collection of inner tubes, rafts, and an old metal canoe, the league decided that the game should be cancelled.
“Honestly, we felt the weather gave us a real advantage,” said outfielder Joe Lochi, through his snorkel and scuba mask. “Some of us went and practiced at the local waterpark over lunch. I’m telling you, trying to catch the ball while going down the waterslide is really tricky. But after several hours, we had it down pat.”
This marks the second game for Team Chaos that has been postponed during the young season. Will the revised schedule screw up the Chaos’ pitching rotation? Can the team get their deposit back on the wetsuits they bought for this week’s game? Only time will tell if the Chaos can overcome all this adversity and come out on top this season.
