Use Your Union's Optical Benefits, please

TennisTitan and 'Kraut' paired for a two setter this afternoon against 'Big Al' and 'Slats' at Kinsley with mixed results. TT/'Kraut' won the opener (6-3) in comfortable fashion but let the night cap slip away dropping the tie breaker (6-7) (5). Kudos to the opponents who came back from a (4-2) deficit to earn a somewhat tainted victory. Titan and 'Der Kluger' almost re-stole victory from the jaws of defeat coming back from a 0-5 deficit in the breaker to draw even, but let momentum slip away to lose the next two points. Titan remarked to 'Der Kluger' as they left the sweat-stained court, "There was no way that Slats was going to lose that second set, not after he made that "out" call in the 11th game that would have given us the lead... even 'Big Al' couldn't look us in the eye." Kraut summed it succinctly, "Titan, Slats and I received our summer checks today... now THAT IS stealing, this is fun!"
