MISQUAH — The regular season is over and Post 162 finished 16–11, which is a fine record, and which does not describe the summer at all. Here is a partial accounting of what the summer actually contained.

It contained a game called after seven innings because of smoke, won 5–2, played under a sky the color of a penny in front of forty people who should have been indoors. It contained a ten-inning walk-off against Sandstone in the first clear air in nine days. It contained a Tuesday in August in which a four-run lead disappeared in three innings and everybody went home and thought about it. It contained one working light tower all season, headlights along the outfield fence as a matter of routine, and a coffee can on a bar Saturday that moved the fund for the third tower further in an afternoon than it moved in two years.

Cody Lindholm threw 61 innings and blamed the wind on four separate occasions, three of them justified. The bullpen was asked to do more than a bullpen this size should be asked to do and did most of it. Ben Aune drove in 31 runs on a team that scored 118, which is a proportion Sonny has looked at twice and declines to comment on beyond noting that it is a lot.

Section play opens Thursday at Cambridge, 5 p.m., and if they win they play again Friday, and the fair is that weekend, and this newspaper is aware that this town cannot be in two places at once and has never let that stop it. The banquet is in September at the Northern Tap, where the golf league’s asterisk will also be settled, and where, per tradition, nothing is settled.
