DA: "Greetings grubball fans. I am Dern Arnak
and with me as always is Westin Tarbral and welcome to Grubball Tonight.
We have plenty to cover tonight including a pair of forschbowlers try to keep
pace with 'The Unbeatable.' Elsewhere, a battle between a pair of
unbeatables in this year's season, but one would come away with a
loss.
DA: "We start in Angelsin, where the bottom-feeding
grubballers from Arankeep were coming to town and Angelsin was looking to
improve to .500 on the season. Kan Delrid scored two 1st quinting points
and Angelsin looked well on their way to the goal, but the Keepers had other
intentions. Kenglith Tarbador scored twice in the 4th quinting and
Arankeep comes away with the win by a final count of 6-5. Tul with Fists
of Steel had 25 kills in the win.
DA: "Mhernettla at Bralk Lakrath. Thusfar,
the Korthai have given a lackluster performance on the field, finding themselves
on the lower half of the standings for the first time in a long time.
Despite the killing machine that is Kenglith Mintraslim with 43 kills, the
Korthai were victorious. Elias Ventuth had 2 points and 1 assist in the
game and Fenduth the 'People Are' Strange scored once on the Forschbowler
Overload, adding 22 kills as well. The final, Mhernettla the winner,
6-4.
DA: "To Tralazir, where the first place Dracheans were in town looking to stay on top. The game was less than enjoyable for the Tralazir team as Drache Hinterplodder Urcelon scored twice and added a helper. Kota the Wolf tallied 31 kills and his first shutout of the season, while his opposite, Eld the Leaky had only 11. DA: "Westin, Fenduth the Unbeatable, way back in
381, tallied 651 kills on the season. With Kota and Bolk Sarktuka, we have
two current forschbowlers who are on pace to shatter this 90-year old record by
nearly 300 kills. Is it time to start dusting off the plaque to have a new
name engraved in the annals?"
WT: "They both provide a strong case with 136 kills
on the year. They are on a torrid pace to start off this season and if
they stay on it, they will each have more than 1000 kills by the end of the
year. Let's face it, there are some *teams* that have had trouble coming
up with that many kills in the past. They are both out of the gates
quickly but let's remember two things. First, Bolk Sarktuka is playing on
a team that is currently tied for last in the league. He's getting these
kills because no one else is. If the team recovers and starts playing to
their capability, look for his numbers to drop. The same is true for Kota
down in Drache. Add to that the fact that he has yet to complete an entire
season without injury. Even last year's shortened season, he was sidelined
for a couple games and already this year, he had to come out in the middle of
the game. If he stays healthy, the record will tumble to the ground like a
hill giant that's had too much to drink."
DA: "An amusing thought, that. But it is
highly conceivable that for once, a defensive record could come crashing
down. It may not even be a question of which one of these two will break
the record, but rather who will do it first and who will outlast the
other.
DA: "Moving on to the Vale, the battle of the
undefeated. Galanor and Sresar Vale United, both 3-0 coming into the game
and Westin, something's gotta give."
WT: "And give it did, Dern. Galanor came out
quick, scoring immediately to try and take the home crowd out of the game, but
as we all know, it's been sometime since the Vale has been able to get excited
about grubball. Alathar Quarflis put up decent numbers for the visitors,
adding an assist to his 23 kills, but it wasn't nearly enough. Vincent the
Farmer, who is likely drinking as we speak, had 2 points on the game, including
the game-winner late in the 4th quinting. Lor the Inbred added 34 kills as
the Vale is victorious and the Sheep are rejoicing. The final:
6-4."
DA: "Baaaaa-ERP! I believe the call is in the
Vale. Sresar Vale moves to 4-0 on the year and a three-way tie for first
place. One of those teams is Hornath-ul-Marfed who hosted the Gessihorna
grubballers tonight. Kylus of the North again was held without a point,
though he did add an assist in the contest. Bralk Oblaslor and Luk Sarten
each scored once and had a helper. Dorn the Cold and Elrich the Bearded
each scored once for Gessihorna. The final, Hornath moves to 4-0 by a
score of 6-3.
DA: "Now to the rest of the league.
Millabratel over Peraltok Valley by a score of 7-3. Edmund Dralst had 2
points for Milly and Teo Gonall had 3 assists. Bolk Sarktuka had 42 kills,
moving him into a tie with Kota the Wolf for the league lead in kills at
136. MystHaven pummeled Ruthmarna United by a score of 7-1, much to the
delight of the capacity crowd at Molentia Circle. Gorben the Smooth had a
point and an assist and the rookie, Io Balzek, scored his first two points of
his career. Sivriana defeated Tagrana Memorial 4-1, Kenglith Rufnor with 2
assists for the winners.
DA: "And as they say, that's all she wrote,
folks. Another thrilling night in the land of the AGL. We'll see you
again this Sunday for more Grubball Tonight. I am Dern Arnak, for Westin
Tarbral, bidding you a grubball evening. Take care,
folks."
