Game On!

April 23rd, 4:30 PM

Aresenal Field

St. Louis, MO

1st F'n Amendments vs. Drug Law Reform Project

The A's will play their first road game in franchise history, travelling to St. Louis for a duel with the Drug Project. The Drug team is linked to the NORML Onehitters from the Congressional Softball League, and are looking to avenge the A's win over their NORML pals in 2006. The team is led by Dan Berger and Carlie Ware, and from what we hear GM Graham Boyd has made participation mandatory and will make a Freedom Files episode from it. Well, voluteer armies fight better than drafted armies, and the A's are all eager and willing participants. It will be an interesting test for some of the newest A's. Three projected opening day starters are not making the trip to St. Louis (Young William -CF, Dave Engelberg -3B, and Rich Shordt -1B), leaving the door wide open for a rookie to make a big impression. Obviously things could change after seeing some of the players in practice and at the batting cages, but as of now the tentative lineup looks somethng like this:

1 - Cameron Barron, RF

2 - Charlie Mitchell, LF/MGR

3 - Kathleen McClellan, 2b

4 - Matt Alee, CF

5 - Mike German, 3b

6 - Frank Knaack, 1b

7 - Joanne Kang, RCF

8 - Aziz Ahmad, SS

9 - Tim Sparapani, DH

10 - Shin Inouye, P

11 - Mandy Simon, C

Reserves

Lane Dilg, Tim Sparapani, John Hardenbergh, Julissa Cruz, Greg Nojeim, Ian Thompson, others who decide to play
