Spring Season. 47 Spots. Your At-Bat.

// The Itch

You miss playing.

Not watching. Not fantasizing. Not talking about the time you hit a double in your senior year. Actually playing. Dugout is for people who still have the itch.

Your glove is in the garage.

You know exactly which shelf. Still has dirt from 2009. You've thought about it more than you'd admit.

Thursday nights are just... Thursday nights.

Netflix, takeout, the same group chat. You used to have a game on Thursday. You were actually good.

Bar trivia is not a sport.

Your team is too competitive for trivia and not competitive enough for CrossFit. There's a gap. We fill it.

The company softball shirt doesn't count.

You wore it once. To the game. Then immediately to the bar. You want to actually earn a shirt.
