pitchin’ magician
Last weekend softball pitcher Brynn
Donaldson, who will be a Glasgow High
School junior this fall, played in the
G-Funk Throwdown tournament in Great
Falls with her Skyriders travel ball team.
In game 2 of the tournament, Brynn
pitched 3 innings against the Bitterroot
Sparks and accounted for all 9 outs in those
innings, 8 by strikeout and 1 by ground-
out.
During her 2nd inning of pitching,
Brynn pitched what is referred to as an
Immaculate Inning, striking out the side
on nine pitches:
Batter 1 - Strike Swinging, Strike Swinging,
Strike Swinging
Batter 2 - Strike Swinging, Strike Looking,
Strike Swinging
Batter 3 - Strike Looking, Strike Looking,
Strike Looking
According to an internet search,
the odds of pitching a perfect game is 1
in 10,000 while the odds of pitching an
immaculate inning are 1 in 40,000.
In another game, Brynn was given an
MVP award by the Falls Fusion (tournament
Brynn Donaldson is working on her champions) coach for entering the game
skills this summer and will be one of against them in relief of another pitcher and
the players on what is a young team not allowing Falls Fusion to score another
to help the Scotties get to State in run. In those 2 innings she threw 23 pitches
2025. (21 strikes) and had 3 strikeouts.

Later, Jesus asked St. Peter, “I heard there was

St. Peter explained, “One is soaring high above

the North Atlantic. The third one is in Alaska on the left

A dumb pun
Not too long ago a scientist tried to clone himself.
However, his clone was very obnoxious and lewd,
while the scientist was well received and respected.
Finally fed up with his experiment gone wrong,
he threw his clone off the roof of the laboratory;
killing the clone. He was arrested by the local police
for... making an obscene clone fall.

Continuing with What’s in a Name, we look at
Nashua. The town was established as a station on the St.
Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway in 1888.
I remember my father, Ivan Brandt, would ship
the cream that we got from milking cows, to St. Paul.
We would also pick up our chicks every spring to add
onto our chicken population. Dad would also ship his
cattle to St. Paul every year. He would ride along with
the cattle to sell them. The Charles C. Sargent House in Nashua, Montana was
built in 1917 before the town was incorporated in 1918,
