End of Summer Classic
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.
The End of Summer Classic (2000- ) is an annual baseball game played by Roger Cormier's Townsville Mojojoes (a Powerpuff Girls reference) and Wilson Ramirez's Ghetto All-Stars (team GAS). The "ESC" was first played September 3, 2000 at FDR Field1 in downtown Manhattan. It is played annually, usually at the end of August.

[edit] Origins
As written in a 2000blog entry by Roger Cormier: "I was listening to a radio show. The radio show, Opie and Anthony, were talking about an upcoming softball game, where Opie would captain one team full of C list celebrities, and Anthony would captain another C list team. A light bulb flickered...Have my friends and I play a friendly little ol' baseball game. Everyone seemed pretty receptive to the idea, and the End of Sumer Classic was born. We named it the End of Summer Classic in reference to the "Fall Classic", another name for the World Series...
My team was the Townsville Mojojos, considering I just discovered the cleverly written and oh so adorable Powerpuff Girls. The other captain was Wilson, and he named his team GAS, short for the Ghetto All-Stars.
[edit] ESC I: The Virgin Suicides
The stage was set to play at the field near Stuyvesant. We got to the field on the Sunday before Labor Day only to find that the field was taped off. The security guard, hiding in the trees, claimed they were waiting for the grass to complete its development after being sprayed, or something dumb like that. After Wilson led a mini revolt on the one security guard by cutting off parts of the yellow tape and got people to play catch with him, we all took a bus to FDR. FDR is far away, but has lights, and car crashes nearby.
The game was full of offense. And stupidity. And humor. And humor with stupidity. There was soda consumption while circling the bases, footballs brought for the sole purpose of spiking them after reaching a base, car crashes that Wilson would at first mistake for someone yelling at us to stop playing, a police officer watching the game, the police officer witnessing a fight, Roger being told it was staged, Roger asking the police officer why he wasn't given assistance, and homemade Rum and Coke consumed by Jason Flynn. (He's irish so...) Michael Stern volunteered to umpire and since no one remembers how he did he must have done a good job. The game ended with Roger on first base watching Lawrence "The Law" Bianco strike out.
[edit] ESC II: In Like Flynn
ESC II was played in August 2001, three blocks from the World Trade Center and three weeks before the terrorist attacks on the WTC. GAS won again. Jason Flynn was unofficial most valuable player by hitting two home runs. This time everyone was about to leave for college so there was a less celebratory, more somber feel to it. An agonizingly thorough summary was posted on Roger's blog:

Notes of Interest
- Time of Game: 4:15+
- Wilson offered a trade of Inna for a Pepsi. He would be declined.
- Special surprise guests included Cristina Carpio, Inna and Jen Callus
- Ray Chung hits Inna with a pitch in the ninth inning. Wilson and Christos proceeded to run after Ray from the GAS bench and Ray runs into the outfield. Roger and Flynn and Jackson join the minor melee. When Ray was tackled to the ground in shallow left center Jackson said "see Ray? That's why you should of stayed on the track team"
- Following the game Roger tried to attack Wilson from behind, and as he was being chased by Wilson he didn't see Benclement in front of him. Benclement clotheslines Roger, creating a slight bump on the back of his neck.
- Roger sucked batting wise and mostly fielding wise.
- Charley did not make a bad baserunning blunder for once. We love Charley.
- Matt arrived in the fifth inning, and instead of playing defense searched for a boomerang he bought from Paragon. He threw it once and it never came back. He was upset, obviously
- Townsville is on pace to win by one run in 2007
- If Kevin got a base hit or a walk in the ninth, Roger would of been the tying run at the plate in the bottom of the ninth, fresh off hitting a bases clearing triple. But Kevin grounded out.
- Flynn and Wilson were the top players on team GAS..those two were the only returning members of GAS
- Roger, Mangan, Jackson and Cohen were the returning Mojojos
- Jackson threw an XFL Football to Roger with a bat, the ball ended up jamming his thumb. Thanks asshole.
- The game started only 50 or so minutes late.
- After the game, Christos pointed to the H hat and said "that stands for Hunter. That's why we won!"
[edit] ESC III: The Bullshit Game
ESC III was played in August 2002, the first time played in the borough of Queens. GAS won. GAS came back from 10 or so runs down thanks to a few misplays and four members of GAS becoming umpires in the late innings and calling every pitch a ball ensuring no chance for Townsville. Both captains have agreed that that was total bullshit and the game is a disgrace to the proud tradition of the game. On December 21, 2007 Wilson reliniquished the victory and gave it rightfully to Townsville, in the spirit of fairness. A brief rundown of the game was posted on Roger's blog:
I'm already sick of talking about the game on Saturday. For eight and two thirds innings I outmanaged Wilson, outsmarted Wilson, outeverythinged Wilson. hell, the hot dogs I ate looked better than his. But with two outs in the 9th and Townsville up by three, someone on GAS hit an innocent little ground ball that somehow got through Jackson's legs. Christos got so nervous with the magnitiude of the game and the six people behind home plate just waiting for him to screw up that he walked half the team after that, and we lost 13-12. Immediately after the end, and I mean immediately, Flynn offered me a ride to Taco Bell and to pay for the food. It was very nice of him. We went there but I paid for a medium drink that I refilled about four times. Eventually Flynn and I moved over to where Persits, Mark, Kevin and smeone else were sitting, and listened to them talk more about their individual performances than themselves, which put me in a state of peace for the time being. I still can't believe that I lost. No actually, I do believe that I lost. I can't believe HOW we lost. Usually it's GAS dominatting (sic) the whole game. Nope. We just couldn't seal the deal, nail in the coffin, insert cliché here.
All I can say is damn. Damnit.
I forgot two highlights from the game that are worth mentioning:
1. Wilson's mouth. Wow. Since his neighborhood friend Jose was pitching for me he reminded him of women he couldn't get, informing him in extreme and suspciiously graphic detail about the gay sex he has with his male relatives, and of course regular ol' sex with his mother. Wilson revealed his American boxers and proclaimed America rules and that's why he will win, despite the fact he is Dominican. In fact, last Sunday I saw him wearing a Dominican flag and he was going on and on about how he rode on his brother's bike in the Dominican Pride Parade. Dumbass.
2. My second baseman, Joe, brought an entourage. I guess one of the people in his entourage are special to him, because before the third inning could begin he came up to my team and said, "hey guys I'm engaged!" I was happy for him and all, but did he really have to not play the field for the rest of the game and put in his friend with the broken wrist at second instead? Eh, let the kid enjoy his marriage now. Heh, no fight this year, an engagement proposal and acceptance this time around. And who says the world is full of hate?
Joe never married her by the way.
Kevin has found an official log of the game at http://scistuyball.tripod.com/logs/2002Logs/08-17-02.htm. GAS ended up walking 23 times.
[edit] ESC IV: Townsville's Day
ESC IV took place in August 2003. We finally moved on up to a regulation sized field at Peck Park in Queens. Townsville finally wins. Roger hit a home run, his first career home run ever, to lead off the bottom of the third inning to give the Mojojoes a 1-0 lead. Jose Lopez pitched strong, faltered, and eventually reliniquised pitching duties to Christos Plakas who closed the game out.

Holy shit we actually won! Townsville 9, GAS 4. I hit a fucking home run off of that fucker Wilson, what a cocky asshole. Hahahaahaha. Awesome day.
He did however add some insight to the mind of a nascent champion a few days later:
Few days since the joyous, wonderous End of Summer Classic IV. In one of the few times I let myself imagine winning the game, I feared my life would lose all meaning. We've all seen the internet cartoon with the kid winning that game he always wanted to win, then the screen saying GAME OVER, LIFE OVER...then he shoots himself. But...didnt happen with me. Its lonely at the top, been bored out of my mind the last two days.
Brian Mangan umpired the game. He could not play due to a tonsillectomy. Interestingly and not that surprising to note, this was the lowest scoring ESC, although that may also be attributed to the bigger field.
There was an anonymous (I don't remember who wrote it, but its funny so it might have been me) recap posted at http://scistuyball.tripod.com/logs.htm:
Roger’s Revenge
Riding the arms of Jose Lopez and Christos Plakas, the Townsville Mojojojoes get their first End of Summer Classic win against the Ghetto All-Stars
In a season plagued by poor weather, sunny skies and a dry field provided the perfect setting for the final game of the season--The End of Summer Classic IV. In this fourth installment of the epic rivalry between The Ghetto All-Stars’ manager Wilson Ramirez and Townsville Mojojojoes’ manager Roger Cormier, Cormier led an underdog team; headlined by perennial league stars Christos Plakas, Mark Rubin, Kevin Chau, and Jose Lopez; against the dominating triad of Ramirez, Scott Schiffman, and newcomer CJ.
Since having his face pushed into Wilson's ass over a year ago, it seemed that Roger was doomed to lose every final game of the season to Wilson. One year ago, Roger saw his ESC record drop to 0-3 after a colossal meltdown in the bottom of the ninth inning allowed the Ghetto All-Stars to overcome a six run deficit. On the eve of the ESC IV, Roger took responsibility for the performance of his past teams and declared, "If Townsville loses Saturday, I'm stepping down as captain/owner/manager. I'm sick of this losing crap." Thanks to these moving words and inspired play from his entire team, Roger can remain captain of the Mojojojoes for at least for one more year.
The game began as a pitcher's duel between Lopez and Ramirez with the game deadlocked at zero going into the third. Then, in perhaps the biggest surprise of the day, Roger led off the bottom half of the inning by launching a moon shot down the left field line that eventually found its way over the outfield fence. As most of the players on both teams looked on in disbelief, Roger happily circled the bases laughing like a little girl, in what would be a scaled down prelude to his post-game celebration, before being mobbed by his teammates who were awaiting him at home plate. The Mojojojoes went on to score another run that inning on an error by GAS third baseman Mike Ruda. The damage would have been worse if not for a spectacular sliding catch by centerfielder CJ on a shallow hit ball to right center.
Team GAS responded by loading the bases and cutting the lead in half on a single by GAS leadoff hitter Larry Siu, but Lopez was able to strike out Sam Stavis with the bases loaded to preserve the lead. It was the second of three strikeouts Lopez would record with the bases loaded to end an inning.
In the bottom of the fourth, the Mojojojoes added to their lead and never looked back. Joe Lee led off the inning with a first pitch home run, and first baseman Mark Rubin followed suit three batters later. In the ensuing at-bat, MVP Kevin Chau doubled to left center, then, taking advantage of his speed and two fielding errors, was able to make it all the way home giving the Mojojojoes a 5-1 lead. The Mojojojoes put the game out of reach, by normal standards, two innings later, chasing Ramirez from the game with four singles and three runs to start the bottom half of the sixth inning. Ramirez brought in right-handed flamethrower CJ to stop the bleeding, but the score was already 9-1, and the Mojojojoes began the countdown to the end of the game.
MVP runner-up Scott Schiffman led off the 7th with a single, and after two strikeouts, Lopez drilled Benny Nadado in the back. Coincidentally, Nadado had been hitting Lopez hard all game. When a player suggested that he charge the mound, Nadado just laughed it off. Jason Cohen walked to load the bases. Jose Cornier also worked a walk scoring Schiffman and making it a 9-2 ballgame. With the lineup turning over and the Mojojojoes growing more nervous with each pitch, Lopez got Siu to swing through what would have been ball four, striking out the side.
Team GAS threatened again in the eighth inning. Lopez began the inning by walking Sam and CJ but managed to get Scott to ground into a fielder's choice, leaving runners on first and third. Ruda then grounded to Jason Flynn at second base who knocked the ball down but made an extraordinarily errant underhand throw to first that nearly went over the right field fence allowing Sam to score and leaving runners on first and second. A nervous Cormier came out from behind the plate and called on Pedro Martinez Award winner Christos Plakas to close out the game. Cormier made the same move in last year's ESC and only to watch Plakas walk six batters and have two errors made behind him. As Cormier handed the ball to Plakas, he reminded him, "It's your revenge too."
As the taunting and homosexual comments coming from the GAS bench picked up, Wilson dropped in a single scoring Scott, and Benny hit a ground ball right through the usually sure-handed Max Stavis' legs loading the bases. With the tying run on deck, it looked as if there might be a repeat of last year's choke job. But Plakas bore down and struck out Jason Cohen and Jose Cornier, ending the inning and the threat.
The top of the ninth started auspiciously for the Mojojojoes as Siu led off by hitting a pitch hard to shallow left center which was caught by centerfielder Chau. The next batter, Sam Stavis, was called out looking on a greatly debated pitch down and away. The strike zone of the umpire, Brian Mangan, who was forced into the role after undergoing an emergency tonsillectomy only days before the ESC, had been in question by members from both teams throughout the game. When asked about his performance after the game, Mangan defended himself saying, “I called a good zone. I am the reason the End of Summer Classic was fun. Me. I am larger than the game!!!”
With only one out remaining and down to his final strike, CJ smashed a hard single to left center, setting the stage for a much-anticipated matchup between Schiffman and Plakas. On the first pitch, Schiffman grounded back to Plakas, who, according to one source familiar with the play, "fielded the ball like the cocky jackass he is." The game ended in a scene reminiscent of the conclusion of the Don Larsen perfect game in the 1956 World Series as Cormier jumped into Plakas's arms and managed to hold on despite Plakas’ not wanting to hug him in return. Late to join in the festivities was Mojojojoes’ first baseman Mark Rubin who remarked, “Oh [crap], the game is over? I thought that was the eighth inning.”
The ceremonial/inaugural "Gatorade Bath" had to wait until the trip to Taco Bell, but to Cormier, it was no less refreshing.

[edit] ESC V: V for Vendetta
After a one year hiatus ESC V was played on August 20, 2005. GAS won 11-10 in 10 innings, the first End of Summer Classic to go into extra frames. Wilson Ramirez pitched all 10 innings to get the victory. Tom Huie had the game winning hit in the 10th inning. It was the greatest moment of his life. (Kind of sad.) GAS now leads the series 4-1. Jimmy Esatto would later remark it was one of the greatest games he had ever been a part of.

Both captains sent emails following the game:
'sniffle, sniffle' for the Team MVP stuff, I'd split the non-existent trophy 10 ways because everyone on GAS did something that contributed to us winning. I would also like to extend thanks to everyone who made Saturday happen, from the car ride (where Mike and CJ were talking shit from Bronx to Queens) through the amazing ESC V, to the beerbq at the generous Mangan household. Kudos to Roger and the rest of Townsville for helping to make ESC V an event, not just a game. From the uniforms (which I thought were awesome) to Mike's homer in the 8th which came dangerously close to completely deflating my tremendously large ego, to graciously allowing us to celebrate and still lining up afterwards. It was all a blast, a day that I won't soon forget.
I should publicly extend my kudos to Wilson and team Ghetto All Stars. Wilson pulling a Jack Morris and going 10 innings will always be remembered and I am just glad the game didn't end on some controversial play, Joe and Tom got clean base hits in the 10th. GAS also showed some restraint by not having the victory parade and ring ceremony until after the barbecue. And I was blown away by my fellow teammates' uniforms. I didn't know how the idea would be received but particularly Mangan and CJ were 110 percent behind it. CJ even told Afro Mike "you ARE gonna make a jersey" and before I finished the question "hey Mangan did you read my thing about the unforms?" one day after I posted the email he said "already made mine". Loved that. And Tim and Jay Cruzer who are rookies in this stuff were in on it too. That blew me away. AND AND Flynn took a 6:30am bus from D.C. to New York JUST to play this one game and then he went back to Maryland the next afternoon. Christos picking up myself, Flynn, Karen and Jackson despite us running 20 minutes late, Christos and I in the front barely speaking too excited and nervous about getting to the field. Jimmy's father not only umpiring but cleaning the plate and bringing Gatorades? Wow. Nicest patent lawyer I'll ever meet. I wish Townsville won the game but I cannot complain, it was a lot of fun. To be a part of something that is bigger than myself and everyone else, damn son.
[edit] ESC VI: Pookie Time
The sixth installment of the series featured a scrappy Townsville team rallying from a 7-4 deficit in the bottom of the eighth inning to take the championship. C.J. Medina threw a complete game and went 3 for 4 at the dish to earn MVP honors. It was Medina's first End of Summer Classic championship, as well as for league lifer Brian Mangan.

Notes of interest
- C.J. allowed no extra base hits.
- There were no home runs in this game.
- There were only ten strikeouts, as opposed to twenty-six last year.
- Due to the fact that there were more balls put in play, there were nine errors this year, as opposed to only three in last year's game.
- We only started one hour late.
- This was the first postgame celebration involving The Wendy.

[edit] ESCVII: The Pitcher's Duel
GAS won 6-3. So who cares.
