Weathered ball field and quirky coaches at delayed game

Managers are tad fellows to hit when you are looking for a job. The infield after the shower was slippery as a frozen pond. The Delaware Peach was as effective as ice under the sun.

ONeill barely reached Jones' Texas leaguer, punching it into second base. Shorty’s sawdust helped, but fielders still waded through dampness. Old Glory flies over the staff as Steeple Jack Jr rigs a makeshift ladder to the pole before the rest of the scene.
