Sat., 3/9 Barry C. Silk

[magus]

THEME:   none, but only 28 blocks
   
GOOD ONES:   
One objecting to a called strike   SCAB   
Driller's org.   ROTC   
Brief post-game summary   WELOST [laughed aloud]   

BTW:   
Quince factor   CINCO [while we use "Cinco de Mayo" in English, we do not quince]   

Bright   AGLOW [could be, but what about embers in a fireplace which are aglow but not bright?]   

I enjoyed this Silken offering for its difficulty: the answers did not come to mind immediately but required divergent thinking.   

RATING:   
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
