Mediation is the soul's perspective glass

A Monday off after an undesirable night with the Hoppers calls for a time of reflection and meditation (as well as rest for the pitching staff). Sometimes there’s a need for a moment of pause to clear the mind and soul of worldly forces in order to better focus on the task ahead. The Chiefs are coming to town on Tuesday.

The Chiefs and Railroaders both have 1-3 starts through the first 4 games. On paper the two teams match up fairly even. However, the Chiefs can’t match the Railroaders’ team slugging average of .508, and the homerun ball for Fulton has occurred 7 times more than that for Paducah. No doubt we have the offensive to overcome the Chiefs, or our other divisional opponents for that matter.

Once the pitching core is onboard and the defensive pressure on the field is alleviated, the Railroaders season looks bright. Two more pitchers arrived just before game time last night, along with a position player. There are still three more pitchers due anytime and another position player. The sooner the better, I say.

Only four games into the season with 36 games to go, there is lots of baseball left to play. The season is young, our faith and confidence needs to remain tough. To quote one of our Fans, “You can do it!”
