In addition, do all syringes come with protective covers? Are the needles removable? I need to use one for mainly irrigation.
If I were working on you I wouldn't touch a vet product with a ten foot pole as the quality control standards are often less (e.g. sterility) and this could be bad.
However, if you are really only using the syringes for irrigation then they should be just fine, just make sure you wash them with alcohol first. all syringes come with protective covers, however if you are just using them for irrigation you wouldn't need ones with needles, would you….
You can purchase irrigation syringes without needles. IF for some reason you already have those, the needles may or may not come off; but they almost always do. Just twist WITH THE CAP ON and they should unscrew. REMEMBER, YOU NEVER RECAP A SYRINGE, EVER.
No vet sutures due to sterility concerns. Why are you even using them to begin with !? (sorry, but if you knew how to stitch somehow I don't think you would need to ask these questions…whatever is going on, see a doc)
ABILENE — the eyes might not be as sharp. the gut might be a bit flabbier. the ear hair might need a good weed-whacking. but inside each member of the HGH softball team, there is still the heart of a champion. And on Monday night, the Syringes showed that the old heart is still beating.
Trailing by five runs after three innings and staring straight at the possibility of a 2-4 record, HGH answered with an impressive 17 runs in the final two frames for a come-from-behind 21-18 victory over Pioneer Drive Baptist Blue. the Syringes, once 1-3 and in complete disarray, are now back to .500 at 3-3 with four home games remaining.
Could it be the start of a late-season championship charge? Maybe, maybe not. but if nothing else, it showed that HGH won’t relinquish its grip on the Church 2 spring title without a fight.
“That’s what a Nathan Sanders-coached team is all about,” said veteran outfielder Steven Rizzotto, who personified HGH’s rally by going 0-for-2 with two popups in his first two at-bats then lacing a triple and a double in his last two. “we battle, we get after it and we do work. That’s why I love this team more than anything else. well, maybe not as much as my girlfriend … and my girlfriend’s Shih-Tzu, Flopsy-Mopsy. but definitely more than my girlfriend’s cat, mr. Snuggles. I hate cats. sorry, mr. Snuggles. but it’s true.”
The previously pedestrian Syringe offense showed its claws in the top of the fourth, sending 12 men to the plate in an eight-run inning highlighted by Ben Gibbs’ two-run homer just beyond the center-field fence. Gibbs finished 3-for-3 with 5 RBI and raised his average to .842. He needs only 6 RBI in his final four games to tie Ryan Ware’s single-season franchise record of 27.
When Pioneer Drive responded with four in the bottom half to regain the lead at 13-12, HGH delivered the knockout blow in the fifth with nine more runs. Seven different players drove in a run in the fifth, including a run-scoring pop-up by mr. Sacrifice fly himself, shortstop Garrett Sublette (the 11th of his esteemed career). Pioneer Drive managed to bring the tying run to the plate with two out in the bottom half, but a running catch in right field by Sanders ended it.
Three innings into Monday night, HGH had four runs on seven hits. In the final two innings, they added 17 runs on 19 hits. the turnaround is difficult to explain — especially since it started shortly after Sanders benched HGH’s second-best hitter, Lucas Gibbs (.778 after last week), who was hitless in his first two at-bats. was Sanders trying to put a scare into the rest of the lineup by showing that no player is untouchable? was it simply because Sanders had to take someone out to sub in Jody Team and Gibbs had the second-most at-bats on the squad? or is Sanders as clueless as his critics suggest? whatever the reason, it got at least one player’s attention.
“Man, sitting out is no fun,” Lucas Gibbs said. “I don’t know what I did, but I’ve got to do whatever it takes to get back on Coach Sanders’ good side. Maybe I could re-do the wood siding on his house or put in a swimming pool in his back yard. or maybe I should just switch back to soccer, the sport of choice in my native land of Brazil. then I could just be known as Lucas, kinda like Pele or Ronaldinho or Kaka but without the supreme skills.”
Sadly, the focus shifted to team disciplinary matters shortly after the game, as rookie third baseman Graham Sensing shockingly rejected Sanders’ request to lead the post-game prayer — a task typically given to newer HGH players as a form of initiation. Sensing could face up to a three-game suspension from the team for his blatant insubordination. however, Sensing’s agent is asking for the suspension to be waived because his client wasn’t thinking straight after trying to field a ground ball with his eye socket a few moments earlier.
“I couldn’t believe it … refusing to lead the prayer — and on the day after Easter, too,” Sanders said, shaking his head. “I’m not the only higher power he’s gonna have to answer to for that one. I guess I expected more from the president of a christian university’s social club. What’s it called? Huh? Galaxy? really? What, do they all get together and watch Battlestar Galactica on Friday nights or something? Geez. Nerd alert! Seriously, the guy should understand a thing or two about initiation. I guess next time I’ll just make him drink a gallon of milk or hold a cinder block over his head for six hours or something.”
Also providing incentive were the rumors circulating in the dugout that one current HGH player is facing potential season-ending surgery. the identity of the player could not be confirmed at press time.
The legitimacy of this HGH resurgence will get its biggest possible test this coming Monday, as the Syringes take on a first-place Hillcrest squad (5-1) that throttled them 25-10 in the first meeting. Game time is 8:30 p.m. on fabled Field #5.
