Journal entry 30: Febuary 20th

Yesterday we were in Iowa. I got to see the baseball field where they filmed "Field of dreams" which is probably my favorite baseball movie. Yesterday we played a charity game of softball, dressed as klingons from the "Star Trek." show. A small town in Iowa is where captain James Tiberius Kirk was born in, and in real life they built a statue to him. We played a local team for charity, I forget which charity. It seems that. although klingon is considered a "real" language, they don't have words for "You're safe" or "You're out." So the umpire would say, in klingon, "You're alive" or "You're dead" which means the same thing. I just looked at the umpires' signals, which I'm familiar with. We won this game. But today we played an exhibition game against Notre Dame university. I'm embarrassed to say we lost this one. Still, Notre Dame had this one pitcher, Jim Abbot, who only has one hand. He's a good pitcher, I didn't get a single hit off of him.
