Watery Grave Invitational 2

Oh boy. So now I'm in the mix for The Drowning Machine's "Watery Grave Invitational"...wasn't aware there was going to be a theme, but that's okay. It's like in culinary school when we had "market basket" exams on Fridays. Francois or Pascal would unveil a pile of raw meat and produce and we had one hour to whip up an appetizer, an entree with two sides, and a dessert. I'm not scared. Eleven other talented writers gunning for each other. Fine. Just got to get my Kenny Powers on as the theme is America's pastime BASEBALL--to wit--here be the man, just to give you an idea of where my head is at with this whole thing. Deadline 5/24. See you there.
