It’s hard to be great when you don’t get to play that often.
The TNacious Greats, a team in the Senate Softball League, has only played one game this season. While we can’t confirm that the lack of available real estate on the National Mall is the cause of this, we reported earlier this season about the possible challenge teams faced finding a diamond as the season progressed.
“So glad we got a field on the Mall tonight! Let’s go Greats,” read the tweet of team member Virginia Houston.
As the humidity in the nation’s capital kicks up, Houston expressed the understandable desire to not have to travel far and wide for seven innings of softball heaven.
“Well, I would say ‘all season,’ but we’ve only played one game so far
I just prefer not having to go very far,” she tweeted, when asked how long it had been since the team had played on the Mall.
After tonight, who knows when the team will get to play again. They should make the most of the opportunity by playing, dare we say it, great.
